Background |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
UNDP is the knowledge frontier organization for sustainable development in the UN Development System and serves as the integrator for collective action to realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UNDP’s policy work carried out at HQ, Regional and Country Office levels forms a contiguous spectrum of deep local knowledge to cutting-edge global perspectives and advocacy. In this context, UNDP invests in the Global Policy Network (GPN), a network of field-based and global technical expertise across a wide range of knowledge domains and in support of the signature solutions and organizational capabilities envisioned in the Strategic Plan. Within the GPN, the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS) has the responsibility for developing all relevant policy and guidance to support the results of UNDP’s Strategic Plan. BPPS staff provides technical advice to Country Offices; advocates for UNDP corporate messages; represents UNDP at multi-stakeholder fora, including public-private, government and civil society dialogues; and engages in UN inter-agency coordination in specific thematic areas. BPPS works closely with UNDP’s Crisis Bureau (CB) to support emergency and crisis response. BPPS ensures that issues of risk are fully integrated into UNDP’s development programmes. BPPS assists UNDP and partners to achieve higher quality development results through an integrated approach that links results-based management and performance monitoring with more effective and new ways of working. BPPS supports UNDP and partners to be more innovative, knowledge and data driven including in its programme support efforts. As a Global Environment Facility (GEF) Implementing Agency and the Green Climate Fund (GCF) Accredited Entity, UNDP also supports countries in addressing development, climate, and ecosystem sustainability in an integrated manner. The Nature, Climate and Energy Team is based in BPPS and is responsible for providing leadership and technical support for, among other areas, delivery of the Environment and Sustainable Development pillar of UNDP’s Strategic Plan. The principal areas of work are in environmental mainstreaming, environmental finance, adaptation to climate change, and local governance of resources, including energy. Addressing climate change is one the key global challenges and priorities for UNDP. Working in over 170 countries and territories, UNDP is uniquely placed to work with all sectors of society to help mobilize the institutions and resources required to support countries implement their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) in the context of the Paris Agreement. UNDP’s offer builds on UNDP’s growing portfolio of innovative interventions and projects at the country, regional and global levels – funded both by the GEF and by other donors – for which UNDP provides oversight, quality assurance, and policy and technical advisory services. The UNDP energy and climate change mitigation team is based in BPPS. About the Climate Investment Platform The Climate Investment Platform (CIP) is a joint initiative by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF). Announced at the UN Climate Action Summit in September 2019, the CIP is a partnership that aims to de-clutter climate finance and facilitate investments in the energy transition to help countries achieve ambitious climate goals. It is organized along four tracks:
The CIP Initiative is seeking a Communications Consultant who will be in charge of building the CIP brand, increasing awareness of the CIP offer and country-level impact among key audiences, supporting outreach efforts to potential partners in order to build the CIP network, increase the reach of CIP initiatives, and support mobilization of resources, as well as to maintain engagement with key partners. The consultant will be hosted by UNDP’s Energy team. The consultant will work in collaboration with CIP Focal Points across all partners and provide support to the various CIP partners.
