<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues and Friends,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">UNDP Viet Nam is seeking 01 National Consultant for coordinating a Participatory Governance Assessment under UN-REDD Vietnam Programme.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The UN-REDD Vietnam Programme has initiated a Participatory Governance Assessment (PGA) on REDD+, which is an operational tool to facilitate the application of the SEPC in national REDD+ strategies.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A PGA is a participatory approach to collect governance data that is measurable over a period of time, and aims to ensure that the information and analysis generated from the data is used both by civil society and government, for decision-making,
and provide increased accountability. The process will include a diverse range of key stakeholders as owners of the process. The difference between a PGA and other more externally driven assessments is that it is fully initiated, implemented, and sustained
by national and sub-national actors. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The main responsibility of the National Consultant is to coordinate the activities and planning of the PGA, and be responsible for the communication to and between key stakeholders. The National Consultant will need to work closely with
the UNDP Country Office to plan for further steps and inputs as provided by the REDD+ stakeholders, but will also liaise with other relevant colleagues from the UN-REDD Programme, including FAO in Vietnam, UNDP and FAO at the global level.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The selected consultant will start as soon as possible on full time basic towards 31 December 2013<o:p></o:p></p>
