Scope of Work Research Support Specialist Digital Ecosystem Country Assessment (DECA) US State Department and USAID Tunisia NAME: POSITION TITLE: Research Support Specialist TOTAL LEVEL OF EFFORT: 25 days AGREEMENT NAME: Digital Frontiers Activities Digital Strategy AGREEMENT NO: AID-OAA-A-17-0033 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: September 18 2023 – June 30 2024 EVALUATOR: Susannah Horton Summary Digital Frontiers is a $90 million buy-in mechanism available to USAID Bureaus and Missions from 2017-2024. DAI implements the Digital Frontiers project which works closely with USAID’s Development Democracy and Innovations (DDI) Bureau; the Technology Unit within the Innovations Technology and Research Hub (ITR/T); USAID missions; the private sector; civil society organizations; and international and local development organizations to identify successful and sustainable digital development approaches and scale their impact globally. USAID missions and other operating units can “buy-in” to Digital Frontiers and essentially fund the Digital Frontiers team to design and implement digital development projects. Digital Frontiers currently implements over 25 of these buy-in projects; each with a unique scope and client within USAID. Digital Frontiers has played a key role in supporting the development and launch of the Digital Strategy and will continue to play an integral role in the implementation of the Digital Strategy. With ITR/T leading the process Digital Frontiers will work closely with the ITR/T team to ensure a thorough thoughtful and consensus‐led process for the implementation of the various Digital Strategy initiatives. BACKGROUND The USAID Digital Strategy 2020–2024 charts an agency-wide vision for development and humanitarian assistance in the world’s rapidly evolving digital landscape. The Strategy’s goal is to achieve and sustain open secure and inclusive digital ecosystems that contribute to broad-based measurable development and humanitarian assistance outcomes in emerging market countries. USAID’s Digital Strategy has two core mutually reinforcing objectives: 1) improve measurable development and humanitarian assistance outcomes through the responsible use of digital technology in USAID’s programming and 2) strengthen the openness inclusiveness and security of country-level digital ecosystems. The DECA a flagship initiative of the Digital Strategy informs the development design and implementation of USAID’s strategies projects and activities. The DECA looks at three pillars of a nation’s digital ecosystem: (1) digital infrastructure and adoption; (2) digital society rights and governance; and (3) the digital economy. The DECA aims to inform how USAID Missions can understand work with and strengthen the country’s digital ecosystem. * Digital Infrastructure and Adoption (Pillar 1): Digital infrastructure and adoption refers to the resources that make digital systems possible and how individuals and organizations access and use these resources. Digital infrastructure includes geographic network coverage network performance internet bandwidth and spectrum allocation as well as telecom market dynamics around security interoperability and competitiveness. This pillar also examines behavioral social and physical barriers and opportunities for equitable adoption (digital divides affordability and digital literacy) — who uses and does not use digital technologies and why. * Digital Society Rights and Governance (Pillar 2): Digital society rights and governance focuses on how digital technology intersects with government civil society and the media. This pillar is divided into three sub-sections: Internet Freedom; Civil Society and Media; and Digital Government. Internet Freedom explores factors that enable or constrain the exercise of human rights and fundamental freedoms online. This includes individual rights to freedom of speech privacy and free assembly and the abuse of these rights through digital repression. Civil Society and Media identifies key institutions and how they report on advocate around and influence online freedoms. Digital Government looks at the government’s efforts to manage internal IT processes and systems deliver citizen- and business-facing e-services and engage with the public through digital channels. * Digital Economy (Pillar 3): Digital economy explores the role digital technology plays in increasing economic opportunity and efficiency trade and competitiveness and global economic integration. Areas of inquiry include digital financial services (credit or debit cards payment apps mobile money and digital savings and loan products) financial inclusion regulation of digital finance digital trade e-commerce and the financial technology (FinTech) enabling environment. This pillar also assesses strengths and weaknesses in the local digital talent pool and the tech startup environment; a healthy digital economy requires a supply of ICT skills that matches the demand and an ecosystem that promotes technological innovation. Note that the following topics are cross-cutting and affect all three pillars in a DECA: * Inclusion : Equal access to opportunities and resources for people who might otherwise be excluded or marginalized. This topic goes beyond digital divides in connectivity access to include things like the unique impacts of digital repression on marginalized populations and barriers to full participation in the digital workforce. * Cybersecurity : How people systems and technology protect information kept in digital formats from being taken damaged modified or exploited. This topic also includes an exploration of cyber harms that exist in a country who is responsible for harms and who is targeted. * Emerging technologies : including artificial intelligence and machine learning Internet of Things drones robotics and blockchain. * Geopolitical positioning: How the country’s digital evolution is being shaped by international relationships particularly the global spread of technology-enabled authoritarianism. OBJECTIVE The USAID Digital Strategy team has been leading efforts related to the roll out and implementation of the Digital Strategy. Digital Frontiers is providing support to this team during the first and second years for rollout activities including the development and piloting of the Digital Ecosystem Country Assessment (DECA).

The UNDP’s work is strongly focused on the provision of policy advice and technical support to the Government of Lao PDR in the design and implementation of national legislation and strategies across four broad Priority Pillars – (1) inclusive growth and reduced inequalities (2) UXO clearance and risk education (3) natural resources climate change and disaster risk reduction as well as (4) effective responsive and accountable governance. UNDP has a long history of working in Lao PDR. UNDP’s comparative advantage has been its ability to work closely with a very broad range of government and local-level institutions at all levels. The new UNDP country programme is aligned with the 9th NSEDP and is anchored in UNDP’s long-term partnership with the Government of more than three decades. The new programme builds on the achievements of the previous CPD that saw the incorporation of the SDGs into the national planning architecture. It will aim to support Lao PDR recover from the economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and continue its transition from LDC status with a particular emphasis on supporting inclusive growth and reducing inequality. The UNDP’s programming on effective responsive and accountable governance inter alia focuses on the provision of policy advice and technical support to the Government of Lao PDR to (1) enhance the rule of law access to justice and protection of human rights (2) strengthen people’s participation in decision-making through increased access to information and political representation (3) enhance public administration reform through institutional capacity-development and implementation of the Government’s decentralization policy (Sam Sang Directive). Being the largest global development knowledge network with particular institutional expertise on governance UNDP in Lao PDR co-chairs the Governance Sector Working Group (along with co-chairing the Public Sector Improvement Sub-Sector Working Group and Legal and Institutional Oversight Sub-Sector Working Group) of the Round Table Process a national mechanism to coordinate the implementation of the NSEDPs and SDGs across the governmental institutions development partners CSOs and the private sector. .

UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories we work for every child everywhere every day to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up. For every child Hygiene UNICEF has been working in Cameroon since 1975 to allow women and children to fully realize their rights to development without restriction as enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. UNICEF provides financial and technical support to Cameroon across seven areas to fully realize the rights of women and children. These areas include Health HIV/AIDS Water-sanitation-Hygiene nutrition education child protection and social inclusion. UNICEF focuses mainly on children and the most vulnerable and excluded families. Cameroon’s 2020 population is estimated at 26545863 people according to UN data.

Job Description Background UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender nationality and culture. Individuals from minority groups indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence. UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse any kind of harassment including sexual harassment and discrimination. All selected candidates will therefore undergo rigorous reference and background checks. Job Purpose and Organizational Context The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the United Nations' global development agency. UNDP works in about 170 countries and territories helping to achieve the eradication of poverty and the reduction of inequalities and exclusion. UNDP has been helping countries to develop policies leadership skills partnering abilities institutional capabilities and build resilience to sustain development results. It is also recognized as an organization advocating for change and connecting countries to knowledge experience and resources to help build nations that can withstand crisis and support their efforts to implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and achieve the new Sustainable Development Goals. As a sub-component of the Regional Service Centre for Africa (RSCA) the UNDP Sub-Regional Hub for West and Central Africa (UNDP WACA) covers 24 countries ranging from high and middle-income economies to least developed countries and countries in crisis and post-crisis situations. UNDP WACA works with UNDP Country offices and national and regional counterparts in the sub-region to support the implementation of national development priorities and achieve the sustainable development goals. UNDP’s work is guided by global and regional development and normative frameworks to which countries in Africa are signatories including the 2030 Agenda and Agenda 2063. Currently UNDP WACA works is primarily informed by the UNDP corporate strategic plan 2022- 2025 the UNDP Africa Promise and the UNDP regional programme document for Africa 2022-2025. The Preamble and Article 1 of the UN Charter describes four areas that are the pillars of the UN: Peace and Security; Human Rights; The Rule of Law; and Development. As a UN agency UNDP works while primarily focusing on development builds on the others pillars which are not only prerequisite but also enabler of sustainable development. According to the UNSG and as part of the recently published new agenda for peace launched in July 2023 “Building this new multilateralism must start with action for peace not only because war undermines progress across all our other agendas but because it was the pursuit of peace that in 1945 unified States around the need for global governance and international organization.” As part of its action for peace UNDP is implementing two strategic offers namely called crisis offer and the prevention offer which provide strategic entry points for sustainable peace across the globe. UNDP’s Prevention Offer 2022-2025 is a corporate effort to articulate UNDP’s prevention and peacebuilding ambition and promotes a strong development lens that calls for acting early and at scale in conflict and crisis prevention and peacebuilding. Its objectives are threefold to: (i) stabilize and protect hard-won development gains; (ii) mitigate risks of relapse or recurrence; and (iii) build institutional and and community resilience to sustain peaceful development pathways. Through the crisis offer UNDP focuses on breaking the cycle of fragility getting ahead of the crisis curve and investing in hope going through the following key steps: “anticipate prevent respond to and recover from crisis every day and in every development context”. As part of its governance and peacebuilding work UNDP WACA is working closely with 24 countries offices and regional partners to building capacities to take and sustain peace across the region. A key component of this work has been the fight against the proliferation of Small Arms and Light Weapons (SALW) cognizant of the rapid proliferation of SALW constitutes one of the major security challenges currently facing the West and Central African region and its neighbouring regional blocks. The effective control of Small Arms and Light Weapons (SALW) is one of the major global prerequisites for peace building sustainable development and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Peace and security challenges in West Africa are primarily about preventing conflicts and bringing development. A major lesson UNDP learned over the years is that where small arms and armed violence dominate development suffers. The trafficking and wide availability of these weapons fuel communal conflict create political instability and pose a threat not only to national security but also to sustainable development. Its widespread proliferation is contributing to alarming levels of armed crime and militancy but also a rapid growth of non-state armed groups. In the Sahel region for instance non-state armed groups continue to pose insecurity against government forces across its frontiers. These conflicts have left behind residual insecurity characterized by the exacerbation of the circulation of illicit weapons. The flow of illicit arms as consequence of the Libyan crisis; the formation of organized criminal groups involved in Small Arms Drugs and human trafficking continues to pose a threat to regional security and stability as evidenced by the activities of terrorist groups such as Boko Haram and Islamic State's West Africa Province (ISAWP). To further promote the prevention agenda UNDP WACA has been implementing a regional project on SALW for the effective development of a broader peace and security framework for cohesive management of SALW programmes for the West and Central Africa. To continue engaging in this important endeavor and scale up the initiative for fast-track peacebuilding efforts UNDP WACA hub is recruiting a Regional Coordinator (SALW) who will be working under the direct supervision of the Director of the Regional Hub for West and Central Africa (WACA).

To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social political economic civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children which is the universal mandate of UNICEF as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child while also supporting the equitable development of nations.

United Nations Country Team (UNCT) in Iraq consists of 23 UN agencies funds and programs led by the UN Resident Coordinator and Humanitarian Coordinator who is the designated representative of the UN Secretary-General for development operations in Iraq. All these entities joined efforts and bring their varied comparative advantages to deliver the UNSDCF as One UN and in the last 3 years (2020-2022) have expended USD 1199266960 to implement the UNSDCF out of the proposed USD 2742507096 resources required which amount to 43.7 % of the resources. The 2020-2024 UNSDCF which was signed in 2021 is a comprehensive document produced by the United Nations System in Iraq. It is characterized by various elements including the application of the Standard Operating Procedure for UN coherence a strong focus on partnerships the alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as its fundamental basis and the participatory approach taken during its formulation involving the Iraqi Government and key stakeholders. The UNSDCF is structured around five Strategic Priorities (SPs) and eleven outcomes each accompanied by a total of thirty corresponding outputs. Annex A Iraq UNSDCF Final Evaluation detailed information Annex A Iraq UNSDCF Final Evaluation detailed information v2.pdf Team Composition For context the below deliverables will be expected to be delivered by an evaluation team. These Terms of Reference are for two team member consultants who will be support Team Leader of the evaluation (International consultant). Each Team member should sign and comply with the UNEG Code of Conduct for Evaluators which provides ethical guidelines for the conduct of evaluations. The Evaluation Team and each team member is required to submit the certificate of the Ethics in evidence generation training of UNICEF (see here). The Evaluation Team Leader leads the entire evaluation process working closely with all team members. S/he will conduct the evaluation process in a timely manner and communicate with the Evaluation Manager on a regular basis and highlight progress made/challenges encountered. The Evaluation Team Leader will be responsible for producing the inception report and the draft and final evaluation reports. Team members contribute to the evaluation process substantively through data collection and analysis. They will share responsibilities for conducting desk review and interviews and conduct field visits identified and collect data. They will provide substantive inputs to the inception report the presentation of preliminary findings as well as to the draft and final reports. Scope Of Work Purpose and Objectives of the Final Evaluation The CF Evaluation Has Two Primary Purposes * Promote greater learning and programmatic improvement. The evaluation will provide important information for decision-making towards strengthening programming and results at the country level. Specifically it will capture lessons learned and make recommendations that will inform the development of the next CF program cycle. The UNCT host government and other CF stakeholders will also learn from the evaluation. * Support greater accountability of the UNCT to CF stakeholders. By objectively providing evidence of results achieved within the framework of the CF and assessing the effectiveness of the strategies and interventions used the evaluation will enable the various stakeholders in the CF process including national counterparts and donors to hold the UNCT and other parties accountable for fulfilling their roles and commitments. The Objectives Of The Evaluation Are To * Assess the contribution of the CF to national development results through evidence-based assessment using evaluation criteria. * Identify and explain operational factors and bottlenecks that could have affected the CF’s contribution and why the performance is as it is. * Provide actionable recommendations for improving the CF's contribution especially for incorporation into the new CF programming cycle. These recommendations should be logically linked to the conclusions and findings of the evaluation and should draw upon lessons learned identified through the evaluation. Use of Evaluation Findings The evaluation findings will be used by a broad range of stakeholders including the Government of Iraq members of the UNCT partners from civil society academia donors and other development partners from the international and national community to (1) improve implementation of the UNSDCF (2) prepare the next (2025-2029) United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) and contribute to learning and accountability within and beyond the United Nations. Scope The evaluation will cover UNSDCF implementation from January 2020 through December 2022 with some analysis through the first half of 2023 depending on data availability. It will also examine the UNSDCF cross-cutting issues and UN programming principles including human rights gender equality equity and women’s empowerment youth engagement disability inclusion sustainability and resilience and accountability. The UNSDCF evaluation will not evaluate any individual program or activities of a specific UN agency. However the evaluation will be conducted at the strategic level looking at the UNSDCF as a portfolio of different interventions. Nevertheless the evaluation may build on the available findings from program and project evaluations conducted by each agency. The geographic scope of this evaluation will be national (Federal Iraq and Kurdistan Region) with focus on two governorates. Detailed information on the geographic scope of the various interventions under the UNSDCF will be provided to the evaluation team at the inception phase.

Overview USAID Momentum Country and Global Leadership Quality of Care (MCGL QoC) project is a multi-year project that provides technical and capacity development assistance (TCDA) to ministries of health and other country partners to expand global leadership and learning and enable government-led partnerships to deliver high-quality evidence-based interventions that accelerate reductions in maternal newborn and child mortality and morbidity. MCGL QOC has a geographic scope restricted to the national level but extended through partners to currently 24 States of Nigeria. The four (4) objectives of MCGL QoC project are to: * Support the Government of Nigeria to collaborate with academia by commissioning research on QoC for maternal child and Newborn health in the six geopolitical zone * Support national adaptation of WHO standards of quality care for Newborn health including the Small and Sick Newborn (SSNB) and paediatric health and develop the strategy for its implementation. * Support USAID IP in collaborating with target states in ensuring that quality improvement activities are reflected in the zonal and national programs monitoring and evaluation framework. * Support the FMoH’s DPRS in monitoring and evaluating QoC in line with the QoC network goals strategic objectives and implementation (and monitoring) framework as well as the 2016 WHO standards for improving quality of maternal and Newborn care in health facilities and the 2018 WHO standards for improving the quality of care for children and young adolescents in health facilities [and the 2019 WHO WASH in health care facility standards to which Nigeria has committed] To support national adaptation of WHO standards of quality care for Newborn health (including SSNB) and paediatric health and develop the strategy for its implementation outlined in the second project objective MCGL QoC hopes to collaborate with other partners especially those within USAID and the FMoH to participate in a range of ongoing efforts that contribute to the desired impact Justification Nigeria’s child health indices are poor having the highest contribution (10%) to the global under-five mortality profile despite just being 2% of the total world population. To be on track towards achieving the SDG 3.2 target for under-five by 2030 there is an urgent need to develop a National Child Survival Action Plan (NCSAP) that will articulate interventions plans strategy implementation and monitoring framework for under-five health interventions in Nigeria. With emphasis on high quality care the current efforts must be accelerated by a factor of 80% across all health delivery platforms (facility outreach and community) for Nigeria to meet the SDG 3.2 set target on under-five mortality reduction. Consequent to the very poor under-five indices the Federal Ministry of Health in collaboration with the Global Child Health Task Force initiated the process of developing a National Child Survival Action Plan for Nigeria (NCSAP) with a view to galvanising actions that will accelerate efforts towards reducing the prevalence and incidence of childhood killer diseases improving low coverage of childhood routine immunisation and reducing the high prevalence of childhood under-nutrition. To support the development of the NCSAP the USAID MCGL-QoC wishes to support the FMoH to engage the services of a Technical Expert who will facilitate the process for the development of NCSAP. The overall objective of this technical assistance is to support FMOH in developing a comprehensive actionable and costed NCSAP that will guide the implementation of child survival interventions at the national state and local levels. USAID MCGL-QoC will support one of the consultants that the FMOH requires to achieve this important task.

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse any kind of harassment including sexual harassment and discrimination. All selected candidates will therefore undergo rigorous reference and background checks. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the global development network of the United Nations connecting countries to knowledge experience and resources to help people build a better life. UNDP is on the ground in more than 170 countries and territories supporting countries to reach their own development objectives and internationally agreed development goals building and sharing solutions in the areas of Sustainable Development Democratic Governance and Peacebuilding and Climate and Disaster Resilience. UNDP supports the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the 17 new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as they help shape global sustainable development for the next decade. Regional Hub UNDP’s Regional Bureau for Africa (RBA) is its largest regional bureau covering 46 countries ranging from high middle-income economies to least developed countries as well as countries in crisis and post-crisis situations. UNDP works with its national counterparts in the Africa region to help them implement national development priorities and achieve their national development goals. Its work is guided by global and regional development and normative frameworks to which countries in Africa are signatories including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Africa Union’s Agenda 2063. To make this possible UNDP’s Regional Bureau for Africa counts with a core capacity of highly qualified professionals located in its headquarters in New York and in its regional and sub-regional offices in Addis Ababa Dakar Nairobi and Pretoria. RBA staff provide both substantive and managerial support to UNDP’s operations in the Africa region enhancing its standards of efficiency and accountability providing innovative region-wide strategic thinking and policy analysis and engaging in advocacy and partnerships development helping translate corporate and RBA strategies and goals into development impact and results on the ground. The Dakar hub operates as a sub-regional office of RBA covering West and Central Africa (WCA). It provides to 23 country offices in the WCA sub-region with dedicated management support as well as policy and programming advisory services in key RBA priority areas bringing this expertise closer to UNDP’s operational needs in the field. The Dakar Hub is also responsible for managing and implementing regional projects contributing to the regional programme. In addition the Dakar sub-regional hub hosts RBA’s Sahel team which provides dedicated support to country offices in that subregion as part of its contribution to the UN’s strategy for the Sahel. Country Office UNDP Country Programme for Senegal 2019-2023 aims to support the government's efforts in its emergence process to achieve the SDGs through three focused priorities: (a) Governance for achieving the SDGs; (b) Strengthening the dynamics of economic and social development through the promotion of sustainable and inclusive growth; and (c) The sustainable management of the environment and natural resources. The combination of these programs is part of a holistic approach to development that will enable UNDP to contribute to the expected changes in support of the implementation of public policies in Senegal. The mitigating the effects of climate change preserving productive capital and the establishment of basic infrastructure work together to integrate the different layers of the population into the economic circuits. Similarly building capacity for planning implementing and monitoring-evaluating public policies at national and local levels contributes to the sustained integration of all sectors in the national SDG discourse. UNDP is supporting the adjusted and accelerated plan (PAP2A) 2021-2023 under Covid-19 situation emphasizing sectors with high potential for economic growth and social inclusion. The country office is also in the process of developing its 2024-2028 country programme.

This decrease is linked to the end of the PUDC and induces important consequences on the country office staffing and financial sustainability.

ToRs 4 National Individual Consultant-SBC Polio Epidemic publication.pdf UNICEF works in some of the world's most challenging places reaching the world's most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them realize their potential. In 190 countries and territories we work for every child everywhere every day to build a better world for all. And we never give up. For every child a champion The Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) aims to ensure that future generations are safe from the threat of polio paralysis. Achieving this goal depends on interrupting poliovirus transmission in endemic countries and ensuring rapid and effective responses to poliovirus outbreaks in polio-free countries. Like several countries in the WHO African Region Guinea is facing several epidemic episodes of circulating poliovirus derived from type 2 vaccine strains with 43 cases in 2020 and 9 cases in 2021. To this end 4 rounds of JLV response to mOPV2 were organized and a national campaign (JNV) preventive to bOPV was organized in October 2021. In 2022 following the introduction of nOPV2 in many countries of the sub-region Guinea despite having fulfilled all the conditions did not use this vaccine and did not organize any preventive vaccination campaign. The country has recorded from June 2023 cases of PV2 in Siguiri district and in accordance with standard operating procedures (SOPs) to respond to a polio event or epidemic it has planned reactive supplementary immunization activities in 3 rounds (R0 from 8 to 11 September R1 from 22 to 25 September and R2 from 20 to 23 October) with nOPV2; R0 will affect affected DS and the 4 border districts and R1 R2 will concern the whole country. Good communication for community mobilization and engagement is essential for the success of immunization activities and in particular supplementary immunization activities (SIAs). It is in this context that UNICEF in collaboration with partners involved in the fight against the epidemic is setting up response teams. The UNICEF office in Guinea intends to recruit four (4) SBC-Polio National Consultants for a period of 4 (four) months in order to strengthen the planning implementation monitoring and evaluation of communication/social mobilization activities for the vaccination of children under 7 years of age against Polio at the national level.

The consultant will contribute on the technical assistance for 15 municipalities in the state of Roraima mobilization for joining to the SELO UNICEF + module with implementation of specific activities for the migrant/refugee and indigenous population that are defined in the methodological guide of the SELO UNICEF + module and cover the 7 Systemic Results and the Citizen Participation and Management by Results Axis of the SELO UNICEF +. SCOPE OF WORK In the state of Roraima 15 municipalities have joined the UNICEF Seal 2021-2024 edition making a commitment to implement essential activities for the development of children and adolescents: services to protect against violence social assistance education health as well as citizen participation activities. In this way the Seal enables the municipality to take a specific look at improving the living conditions and development of each child and adolescent whether migrant/refugee or indigenous. There are 11 traditional indigenous ethnic groups in Roraima: Taurepang Wapichana Macuxi Yekuana Wai Wai Yanomami Sapará Waimiri-Atroari Sanumá Pirititi and Ingarikó. There are approximately 58000 indigenous people living in more than 465 communities distributed in 12 ethno-regions: Serras Surumu Baixo Cotingo Raposa Serra do Sol Amajari São Marcos Wai Wai Tabaio Serra da Lua Murupu Alto Cauamé and the Yanomami Territory. Furthermore within the context of migration Brazil receives many indigenous migrants from Venezuela. In 2016 Brazil recorded the first arrivals of the Warao and E'ñepa (indigenous peoples from Venezuela) in the municipalities of Pacaraima and Boa Vista and they are now also present in other municipalities in the state. Since the beginning of 2018 around 7 million Venezuelan nationals have left their country due to ongoing social economic and political instability. Of these it is estimated that more than 400000 Venezuelans are residing in Brazil as asylum seekers refugees and migrants of which around 30% are children and adolescents. Many arrive in urgent need of basic humanitarian assistance: food shelter health and protection. At the same time in Roraima - the state with the highest number of entries into the country - an increase in the flow of people of various nationalities has also been identified more significantly since January 2022 arriving on Brazilian territory via the borders with Venezuela (Pacaraima) and Guyana (Bonfim) including adolescents unaccompanied by their legal guardians from different continents. The UNICEF Seal is an initiative of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) to encourage and recognize real and positive progress in promoting realizing and guaranteeing the rights of children and adolescents in municipalities in the semi-arid region and the Brazilian Legal Amazon. By joining the UNICEF Seal the municipality makes a commitment to keep its public policy agenda for children and adolescents as a priority. Participating municipalities will be offered the SELO UNICEF + which aims to enhance the inclusion of migrant/refugee and indigenous children and adolescents in the proposed activities reflecting the diversity of children and adolescents in the systemic results. I - Systemic Results When joining the SELO UNICEF + the municipality must follow the proposed methodology to strengthen public policies that support the rights of girls and boys migrant/refugee and indigenous and ensure that this happens in an intersectoral and integrated way. Social participation must also be encouraged ensuring the involvement of the Municipal Councils for the Rights of Children and Adolescents (CMDCA) community organizations indigenous organizations and the participation of adolescents. To win the SELO UNICEF + the municipality will need to develop actions in the following two areas aimed at reducing inequalities and guaranteeing rights: Systemic Outcome 1 - Early Childhood Development Systemic Outcome 2 - Quality Education for All Systemic Outcome 3 - Ensured Hygiene Habits and Access to Water for Children and Adolescents in Schools Systemic Outcome 4 - Opportunities and Education Work and Vocational Training for Adolescents and Young People Systemic Outcome 5 - Comprehensive Development Mental Health and Well-Being of Children and Adolescents in the Second Decade of Life Systemic Outcome 6 - Prevention of and Response to Violence against Children and Adolescents Systemic Outcome 7 - Social Protection and Comprehensive Care for Vulnerable Families Through Intersectoral Services III - Citizen Participation And Management By Results * The regular functioning of the Municipal Council for the Rights of Children and Adolescents (CMDCA). * The creation and operation of the Citizenship Center for Adolescents (NUCA) the registration of adolescents on the online consultation platform called U-Report and the implementation of the Citizen Participation Plan for Adolescents. * The holding of Community Forums and meetings to monitor the Municipal Action Plan for the Rights of Children and Adolescents. The methodology to be followed by the consultant will be in accordance with UNICEF's priorities the supervisor and the external consultant will discuss and consolidate the Work Plan reaffirming the products and competencies which will be evaluated during and at the end of the contracting process; The external consultant must maintain frequent contact with the supervisor responsible for SELO UNICEF+ and the designated Focal Point in the Boa Vista EZ on an ordinary basis or whenever called upon; The monthly reports will be subject to review and approval by UNICEF after delivery by the external consultant products.

IFC—a member of the World Bank—is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. We work in more than 100 countries using our capital expertise and influence to create markets and opportunities in developing countries. In fiscal year 2021 IFC committed a record $31.5 billion to private companies and financial institutions in developing countries leveraging the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity as economies grapple with the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. For more information visit www.ifc.org. IFC implements the Fertilizer Sector Transformation advisory project in Uzbekistan in partnership with the government of Japan. The project goal is to increase private sector investments in the fertilizer sector by reducing state dominance and removing regulatory constraints to private sector entry and operations. As part of this work the project is supporting the government’s effort of privatization of fertilizer enterprises. Gas is one of the key inputs for producing mineral fertilizers (e.g. nitrogen). Securing long-term uninterrupted access to gas is critical for fertilizer producers and is one of the determinants for potential private sector investors. Absence of long-term contracts for the supply of natural gas hinders attracting long-term financing for modernization and makes new investment projects challenging. Coupled with outages of gas supply or supply at low pressure during winter and absence of alternative mechanism for accessing gas to cover for shortages further increase production and financial risks precluding investments. To reduce the uncertainty of gas supply the project will support the Government of Uzbekistan to develop a legal framework and a template of a long-term contract for gas supply. Such contract could be piloted by one of the to-be privatized enterprises before market-wide rollout. The project is seeking a seasoned international expert to work with the team and government clients on developing such contract and relevant legislation to enact it in Uzbekistan. Duties and responsibilities: * Analyze the existing legislation on the gas supply issue and other relevant local jurisdiction such as if application of foreign law and arbitration is accepted; existence and effects of the mandatory regulations to be applied for long term gas sales contracts etc. This will also entail synthesizing the existing analytical intelligence on the matter to evaluate the potential risks to be considered. * Compare and contrast the local environment with international best practice based on which prepare an outline of the draft and the key problems to be solved by the contract as well as drafting alternative solutions for potential problems including gas interruptions in winter. The option for importing gas by buyer with payment to the SOEs for gas transit should be explored along with the gas purchase from the SOE. The draft document should also be clear about the benefits for SOEs supplying gas and private sector player and keep balance of interests of both parties. * Based on the agreed outline develop a draft long-term contract for gas supply to be signed between State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) supplying (or transporting) gas and buyer from private sector and propose recommendations to amend existing or develop new supporting legislation to implement the contract.
