  • Description:
  • Expression of Interest are invited for Individual Consultant to Develop Sector Specific Guides for Mainstreaming National Determined  Contributions (Ndc) into Agriculture Sector Location: Kigali Deadline: Wednesday, 24/05/2023 23:59 The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a federally owned international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. The GIZ Office in Kigali covers GIZ-s portfolio in Rwanda and Burundi. GIZ Rwanda/Burundi implements projects on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, the European Union and other commissioning authorities in the following priority areas: Sustainable Economic Development, Good Governance, Climate, Energy and Sustainable Urban Development, Digitalization and Digital Economy, Mineral Governance, Peace and Security in the Great Lakes Region. Context The Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN), along with the Ministry of Environment (MoE) and the Rwanda Environment Management Authority (Department of Education and Environment Mainstreaming: DEEM) have been mandated to ensure the Environment and climate change are mainstreamed into national planning and budgeting processes. To be able to track the mainstreaming efforts, the above-mentioned institutions developed the checklist composed by the key performance indicators which are used at the planning and budgeting levels. MINECOFIN, MoE and REMA use these key performance indicators to ascertain the environment and climate change has been taken into consideration during the planning stage. Sectors and districts are requested to take into consideration the checklists and make sure from the submission of the planning and budgeting call circular the mainstreaming guidelines were shared, clear and understandable. The staff who support this activity of mainstreaming Environment and Climate Change (ECC) are the Directors of Planning in the Ministries and the Districts. The Civil Society Organizations and Private Sector have been claiming the additional cost for greening their activities/ projects / Programs. They forget to cost the indirect benefits of going green than business as usual. The later causes consequences which at the end cost huge financial resources to recover the losses. Despite the efforts deployed by the MoE, MINECOFIN and REMA while raising awareness of the staff from sectors and districts, they still need adequate capacities to develop themselves the mainstreaming guides, understand them and use them properly. During the financial year 2020/2021 the assessment of the mainstreaming status of the Environment and climate change by the key sectors of the national strategy for transformation phase one (NST1) was conducted. In Rwanda the mainstreaming status stands at 69.1% and around 17.5% of the indicators were not reported. NDC assist II project was thought as solution towards that issue and will develop sector guides for mainstreaming NDC into Agriculture sector. Unreported indicators were estimated to 17.5%. Another observation was that indicators related to Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) are still implemented at a lower level and there is no specific budget line allocated to them in the sectoral and district action plans and therefore need a particular attention for the integration in sectors plans and reporting (Assessment of the implementation of the environment and climate change activities by sector Ministries and Districts 2020/2021). In 2015 the Government of Rwanda developed the National Determined Contributions (NDC) to fully implement climate change adaptation and mitigation activities/ projects/ programs. It is against this backdrop, the GIZ is in the process of hiring an Individual Consultant to develop the sector specific mainstreaming guidelines for the agriculture sector. Based on the sector specific mainstreaming guidelines, the consulting firm will develop training manual to increase the capacities and awareness of the concerned staff at the sector and district level to be able to ensure the full mainstreaming of NDC in action plans and budgets of the concerned sector. 2.
