1 1 TERMS OF REFERENCE Project Consultant - 9th GEF Biennial International Waters Conference for MENARID IW: LEARN: Strengthening IW Portfolio Delivery and Impact" GEF Project Number: UNDP Project Number: 5337, UNESCO Project Number: A GEF Full-Sized Project, Implemented by UNDP and Executed by UNESCO-IOC Background The Global Environment Facility (GEF) The GEF is the largest public funder of projects to improve the global environment. An independently operating financial organization, the GEF provides grants for projects related to biodiversity, climate change, international waters, land degradation, the ozone layer, and persistent organic pollutants. The GEF international waters focal area targets transboundary water systems, such as river basins with water flowing from one country to another, groundwater resources shared by several countries, or marine ecosystems bounded by more than one nation. The GEF currently unites 182 countries in partnership with international institutions, civil society organizations (CSOs), and the private sector to address global environmental issues while supporting national sustainable development initiatives. Since its inception in 1991, the GEF has achieved a strong track record with developing countries and countries with economies in transition, providing $10.5 billion in grants and leveraging $51 billion in co-financing for over 2,700 projects in over 165 countries. Through its Small Grants Programme (SGP), the GEF has also made more than 14,000 small grants directly to civil society and community-based organizations, totaling $634 million. GEF IW:LEARN is one of these projects, and its mandate is to promote experience sharing and learning among the GEF International Waters (IW) projects and the country officials, agencies, and partners working on them. IW:LEARN operates as a central hub of information and knowledge sharing and delivers a host of programmatic initiatives for the benefit of the GEF IW portfolio of projects. In pursuit of its global and regional objectives, IW:LEARN seeks to strengthen global portfolio experience sharing and learning, dialogue facilitation, targeted knowledge sharing and replication in order to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of GEF IW projects to deliver tangible results in
2 2 partnership with other IW initiatives. More information about GEF IW:LEARN is available at The GEF Biennial International Waters Conference (IWC) is a signature event for the GEF IW focal area. Since 2000, the IWC has progressed from a portfolio-wide stocktaking exercise into an active training and experience-sharing event. IWCs convene on average 300 participants from about 70 projects and 80 countries to share practical experience, apply evolving policies and procedures, address emerging priorities and improve overall project performance. In essence, the IWC serves the purpose of a meeting of the conference of the parties for International Waters projects, which unlike other focal areas, does not have a global convention in force and effect and the related funded governing body. The IWC9 will take place in Morocco in November 2018 (with pre-conference workshops in the preceding two days). During this period, there will be various technical site visits to locations in Morocco associated with good practice in water management. The IWC9 will feature an innovation marketplace (exhibit area), extensive opportunities for focused learning on scientific and technical innovations, interaction with the GEF Secretariat, GEF agencies (UNDP, UNEP, World Bank, FAO, UNIDO, IFAD, ADB, IADB, EBRD, AfDB, CI, WWF, IUCN, DBSA, FECO, CAF, FUNBIO, BOAD) and other institutions on policies, procedures and project management, as well as ample time for participant-directed workshops.
