Introduction
INDIVIDUAL CONSULTANT PROCUREMENT NOTICE
Country: Cabo Verde
Description of the Assignment: Individual Consultant to Conduct Feasibility Assessment of Innovative Financing Instruments in Support of Health and Gender Equality Interventions in Cabo Verde
Period of assignment/services: 41 days
PURPOSE
The purpose of this consultancy is to identify and assess the feasibility of innovative financing mechanisms that can support Cabo Verde in scaling up investments in mental health, reproductive health, and gender equality, specifically for adolescents and youth.

By conducting a thorough analysis of potential financing instruments, engaging key stakeholders, and evaluating the regulatory and institutional readiness, the consultancy will generate evidence-based recommendations and propose actionable implementation plans. These outcomes will inform strategic decision-making by the Government of Cabo Verde and its development partners, contributing to more resilient and inclusive health systems.
