Reference No : SVN/ID10/2012/014
Position Title : Consultant, Final Project Evaluation

Project : Support to the Consolidation of Police Reform in Aceh

PROJECT BACKGROUND
Since the separation of the Indonesian National Police (INP) from the Indonesian National Army, the INP has made genuine efforts to reform, in accordance with the norms and expectations of a rapidly democratizing and modernizing Indonesian society. INP leadership has shown a continuous and resolute commitment towards reform, while several donors and other international actors have played an important role in supporting and facilitating INP’s reform through the provision of capacity building support and technical assistance. IOM has been a key partner working with the INP to facilitate and accelerate security sector reform, with support from the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the European Union. Since 2003 IOM’s cooperation with the INP focused on capacity building and training on community policing and human rights for law enforcement officers and communities throughout Indonesia. The European Commission funded and IOM implemented Support for National Police Reform in Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (2006 - 2009) in the framework of the EC Aceh Peace Process Support (APPS) programme supported the implementation of the 2005 Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Government of Indonesia (GoI) and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM). The current project - Support to the Consolidation of Police Reform in Aceh (January 2011 - June 2012) - aims to contribute to sustaining and consolidating peace and stability through support for democratic policing in Aceh. The project improves the overall professionalism of the Provincial Police in Aceh, advances their skills and capacity to effectively implement community policing and human rights principles throughout the province, and strengthens police - community relations through community-based policing.
IOM is commissioning a final external evaluation to assess the overall performance, immediate impact and overall achievements of the Support to the Consolidation of Police Reform in Aceh project, as well as to assess and put forward recommendations relating to sustainability considerations and the effectiveness of the project exit strategy.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The overall objective of the Support to the Consolidation of Police Reform in Aceh project is to contribute to sustaining and consolidating peace and stability through support for democratic policing in Aceh. The specific purpose of the project is to consolidate community policing implementation to ensure its sustainability. Expected results include: • The Aceh Provincial Police Office is able to “roll out” and sustain community policing implementation across the province and promote the institutionalization of human rights based on the INP national strategy. • Community policing and human rights are institutionalized within the five main INP functions. • The role and participation of the civil society and pertinent local authorities in sustainable community policing is strengthened. • Responsiveness to the Aceh Provincial Police reform needs in the context of broader police reform (managing change facility).
Activities to produce the above results include:
  • Support the INP in the delivery of customized training for police officers on community policing, human rights and gender mainstreaming;
  • Develop a strategy with District Police Chiefs across Aceh to roll-out community policing in their respective districts and support its implementation based on local customs and traditions;
  • Produce IEC materials on community policing, human rights and gender awareness;
  • Mainstream community policing and human rights principles into the five main police functions;
  • Strengthen the role and participation of key stakeholders for sustainable community policing implementation
  • Respond to Polda Aceh’s needs in the context of broader police reform.
OBJECTIVES OF THE FINAL EXTERNAL EVALUATION
The general objective of the end-of-project evaluation is to assess the overall performance, immediate impact and overall achievements of the project, vis-à-vis the stated overall project objective, purpose and expected results (outcomes and outputs).
