Job Title | Local Language Translator for Foresight Knowledge Product |
Project Title: | SIKAP Phase II |
Brand: | UNDP Philippines |
Duty Station: | Manila, Philippines |
Type of Contract: | Individual Contractor (IC) |
Contract Duration | 16 working days spread over 1 month |
Project Description |
With the support of the Connecting Business Initiative (CBI), the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the United Nations Development Programme, and the Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation (PDRF) launched in 2020, the Synergizing Recovery Initiatives, Knowledge, and Adaptation Practices for MSMEs (SIKAP) Project, geared towards providing tools and resources to strengthen MSME resilience.
Understanding the need to support MSMEs in navigating through the post-pandemic scenarios that might emerge, the SIKAP Project was launched to harness private sector resources and technical expertise among its network and partner organizations, including UN organizations to design programmatic interventions suited for recovery and strategic foresight planning. The SIKAP Project produced key outputs: SIKAP Online Platform, an online COVID-19 recovery hub that equips micro, small, and medium businesses with the right information and knowledge on how they can adapt and redesign their operations in light of the COVID-19 pandemic; MSME Recovery and Strategic Foresight Toolkit in English and Filipino; MSME Policy Note; and an MSME Landscape Assessment. The SIKAP Project itself was able to sustain its operations by adopting its own business model.
While the SIKAP Project yielded positive results, reaching 3,000 MSMEs, there is also an opportunity to address remaining gaps, improve on project results, and widen reach. Most of the MSMEs that became a part of the SIKAP Project are based in National Capital Region and this presents an opportunity to reach out to MSMEs present in other locations.
This project will engage the services of the Translator to translate one of the key deliverables of the project, the MSME Recovery and Strategic Foresight Toolkit, from English to Filipino language and Visayan dialect.
