This research will serve as a foundation for evidence and testing solutions in partnership with enterprises to create the business case for advancing women’s economic empowerment and climate-smart agriculture in the selected agricultural value chains. It will also inform policymakers on the ‘how’ of transitioning to inclusive and low-carbon economies, including through incentives and public procurement, diverse financing schemes and policies that will align with nationally determined contributions for the reduction of greenhouse gases under the Paris Agreement.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Please submit your CV and financial proposal to <a href="mailto:reginald@growasia.org">reginald@growasia.org</a> by <b>15 June 2022</b><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>For more information, please visit:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://www.idrc.ca/en/project/asean-green-recovery-through-equity-and-empowerment-agree">https://www.idrc.ca/en/project/asean-green-recovery-through-equity-and-empowerment-agree</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://ngocentre.org.vn/jobs/research-consultant-gender-climate-responsive-analysis-agri-value-chains">https://ngocentre.org.vn/jobs/research-consultant-gender-climate-responsive-analysis-agri-value-chains</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span lang=EN-SG style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#444444'>Kind regards,<br></span><b><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#38761D'>Reginald Lee</span></b><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#888888'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#444444'>Head of Knowledge & Programs</span><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#888888'><br></span><b><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#38761D'>Grow Asia</span></b><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#888888'><br></span><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#444444'>Mobile +65 8126 5144</span><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#888888'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#6AA84F'><a href="mailto:reginald@growasia.org" target="_blank"><span style='color:#1155CC'>reginald@growasia.org</span></a><br><a href="http://www.growasia.org/" target="_blank"><span style='color:#1155CC'>www.growasia.org</span></a></span><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#888888'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
