The EU FLEGT Facility is seeking a FLEGT facilitator to support the implementation of the EU
FLEGT Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) process in Vietnam. VPAs are bilateral agreements between the European Union and timber exporting countries, which aim to guarantee that the wood exported to the EU is from legal sources and to support partner countries in improving their own regulation and governance of the sector.
The focus will lie on providing support to the Government, the EU and stakeholders of Vietnam at each step of the FLEGT VPA process, from organizing consultations, supporting work of both negotiations teams and facilitating at country level all FLEGT related activities.

The facilitator will be hired for a two-year term based in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Please send your application by 30 June.
