Introduction :

Country: Philippines

 

Description of the Assignment: 

UNDP has been working with national and international partners in the Philippines on the issue of the circular economy. Since March 2024 UNDP has been working with the European Union (EU) in implementing the EU Philippines Green Economy Programme (The Programme). The Programme has the purpose of supporting the Philippines’ transition towards a green economy, including a circular economy, sustainable consumption and production, reducing waste and plastic, as well as increasing energy and material efficiency and renewable energy deployment to support climate change mitigation. The Programme acknowledges that the transition to a circular economy will have other added benefits such as reduction of the use of energy and greenhouse gas emissions, improved biodiversity and natural capital, decreased pollution levels, and climate change adaptation.

The Programme addresses three main levels:

·     Establishing a Policy Dialogue Platform at the central government level to mobilize EU expertise to facilitate policy formulation, improve city-to-city collaboration through supporting the development of a National Circular Economy Strategy and Roadmap, extend the dialogue to promote renewable energy/energy efficiency, and to apply the dialogue’s outcomes;

·     Working with local government units (LGUs) where EU expertise will support to define and implement circular economy, climate change, and energy policies with a human rights and gender-responsive perspective, outreach and support of local business and civil society, and support less advanced LGUs;

·     Enhancing engagement of the private and financial sectors in the circular waste economy and creating better conditions for private sector investment by supporting business- driven waste reduction strategies and circular solutions in the production process.

It is in this context that UNDP is seeking an International Consultant for Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MERL) to design and recommend a project-wide MERL framework and tools to support the achievement of the GEPP SO2 objective: Enhance capacities and practices of LGUs on the circular waste economy, in collaboration with private and civil society organizations (CSOs), with focus on youth and gender equality
