TITLE:
Request for Professional Services to Run Employment and Social Development Canada’s (ESDC) Tackling Poverty Together Project
OBJECTIVES:
The Tackling Poverty Together Project (herein after referred to as The Project) is an analytical research project in support of the broader Government of Canada Poverty Reduction Strategy. The Project will involve case studies of six communities across Canada that have identified poverty as an issue in order to assess the impact of poverty reduction programs locally in communities, based on the opinions of citizens including persons with lived experience of poverty.
The Contractor will engage with local stakeholders and individuals in low income to get their views on what government needs to do better to address poverty, including what has worked and what needs to be improved.
The Contractor will be responsible for conducting engagement sessions in six communities across Canada in order to hear directly from individuals with lived experience of poverty and organizations delivering poverty reduction programs. Each case study / community engagement would involve gathering qualitative and quantitative information on the impact of government programs on those living in poverty, barriers to accessing the programs, and ideas to improve existing programs. As part of gathering qualitative and quantitative information, the Contractor must:
• Employ qualitative research tools and methods (e.g. use of focus groups, roundtables – see Proposed Methodology and Deliverables); and
• Produce and undertake a quantitative survey to solicit views on poverty and government programming to reduce poverty in each of the six communities.
Once completed, the Contractor must provide an analysis of the data that will then be included in the final report as well as other analytical appendices to the final report.
