[Ngo-admin] Consultancy Service: National Climate Financing Consultant for Project: "Sustainable Development and Climate Planning” (40 days)

[Huynh Huong Thanh]

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

UNDP Viet Nam seeks 01 national consultant for Project: “Sustainable Development and Climate Planning”.
Vietnam is facing significant impacts of climate change and has committed to reduce its GHG emissions as is outlined in the recently approved VGGS (Viet Nam Green Growth Strategy). To ensure appropriate allocation of resources and to gain a better understanding of the overall scope of its current climate relevant spending, MPI is planning to conduct a CPEIR (Climate Public Expenditure and Institutional Review) in close collaboration with UNDP and the WB to implement the CPEIR for Vietnam.

With the context of Vietnam, the Ministry of Planning and Investment will be the Leading Ministry. MPI is responsible for the capital budget and investments, both state budget related, parastatal as well as mobilizing private sector sources, from both domestic and foreign sources. While some efforts have been made to develop a climate change budget classification systems, which has been developed by MONRE, so far this has only been used for the Support Program to Respond to Climate Change and has not been adopted for the overall budget. It could act however as a one of the key starting points for developing a Viet Nam based expenditure classification system and further improving the climate finance architecture.
The institutional component will deliver the insights to assess how the current Institutional Infrastructure in Vietnam can be further improved. In particular an in-depth understanding on the dynamics of policy development and the links between sector – and planning is important. This assignment aims to develop better insights and enable the CPEIR team to understand how budget allocations are made and how expenditure can be explained.
The climate change financing Consultant will:
·         Identify and understand how climate change initiated budgetary demands are reflected in the investment budget
·         Review the existing climate change architecture
·         Lead on the developing recommendation to identify where international best practices can improve the Vietnam Climate Finance Architecture.
The assignment is expected to last for 6 months and covers 40 working days.
