The UNDP Viet Nam seeks one International Consultant and one National consultant for Project: Development of Law and Policy Monitoring Tool.
On 20 June 2008, the One Plan 2 (2006-2010) was signed between the Government of Viet Nam (GoV) and the representatives of 14 UN Organizations in Viet Nam. The One Plan 2 (hereinafter referred to as the One Plan) superseded the original One Plan 1 and brings together all the work in Viet Nam of these participating UN Organizations under five joint Outcomes. At the heart of the One Plan is the overall goal to enhance programmatic synergies among various UN interventions, eliminate any programmatic duplication and overlap, and deliver more effectively “as One”. Key to the implementation of the One Plan is the UNCT’s establishment of 11 inter-agency Programme Coordination Groups (PCGs) responsible for achieving results in the five Outcome areas. The PCGs are essentially a modality to foster joint programming, and the objective is to facilitate the delivery of results in a more coordinated, effective and accountable manner.
In order to strengthen the UN’s reporting and monitoring of policy advice and advocacy work and its results, the UNCT has therefore agreed to conduct a pilot project to develop tools for law and policy monitoring. The pilot has the following key objectives:
- Develop 2-3 case studies on policy advice and advocacy work and results in sectors in which the UN is active – such as gender, climate change, governance and HIV
- Based on the case studies develop reporting templates and tools for reporting on policy advisory work, which can be adopted by the PCGs for annual reporting purposes, including a template for brief case study (narrative) reporting and a matrix template for summarizing key elements of policy and advocacy work.
The assignment will be led by an international consultant as the team leader. The pilot initiative will be undertaken under the direction and supervision of the RCO.
