Development of GEF, Adaptation Fund and GCF project documents (concept notes and full proposals) in the area of climate change adaptation

Developing countries can access funding to address their climate change adaptation needs from several multilateral funds established under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC): The Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF) and Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF) under the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the Adaptation Fund, and the Green Climate Fund (GCF). For all three Funds, the development of a funding proposal typically consists of a Concept Note and a Full Proposal phase.

United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) works with 30+ developing countries to support them in accessing resources from these four climate change adaptation funding modalities under the UNFCCC. The contractor awarded the Systems Contract will be responsible for working with UNEP to develop the documentation (project concepts and full proposals) required to help countries access these funds. Key skills required include demonstrated experience in project development and management in the area of climate change adaptation, experience of developing such projects in developing and least developed countries and in working and collaborating with developing country governments. Fluency in English is required and competency in French and Portuguese is desirable.

United Nations Office at Nairobi (hereinafter refered to as UNON) on behalf of the UNEP is seeking to establish a 5-year (3+1+1) Contract for the above referenced services.
