<p class=MsoNormal>Dear Colleagues and Friends,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The UNDP Viet Nam seeks up to 03 International consultants
provide active participation and facilitation of group discussions in
Negotiating for Climate Change: Viet Nam at UNFCCC COP 17 (2011).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>In recent years much national
climate change policy making has taken place, which relates to the
international climate negotiations. Viet Nam has adopted the National Target
Programme to Respond to Climate Change in December 2008, following the
realisation of the enormous challenges that the world is facing, especially as
a result of the 2007 Fourth Assessment by the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change (IPCC). In 2009 Viet Nam adopted national climate change
scenarios for the 21st century. This is guidance for the formulation of Action
Plans to Respond to Climate Change of sector ministries, provinces and cities,
which is happening through 2010. These achievements were shared at a side event
in Copenhagen, along with developments on REDD-preparedness in Viet Nam and
other donor supported actions.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>The Prime Minister has recently
decided to set up the climate change negotiation team led by the Vice Minister
of MONRE. Members of the climate change negotiation team are from different
ministries, including MONRE, MARD, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) the
Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI), Ministry of Industry and Trade
(MOIT), and other ministries. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>In response to a request from
MONRE, the UNDP in Viet Nam will organize a workshop for negotiators. The draft
aim of those workshops is to strengthen capacities of the Vietnamese delegates
for active participation in the evolving international climate negotiations,
and ensure effective division of work and coordination at COP 17/CMP 7 in
November-December 2011.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>Hired experts will provide
substantive inputs in the form of relevant background documents, active
participation and facilitation of (group) discussions, as well as high quality
presentations on technical details and negotiation positions of various
countries and interest groups.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>The selection will be based on a
competitive basis and will comply with UNDP procurement regulations.<o:p></o:p></p>
