1 Consultancy to prepare a Funding Proposal draft for the Project Climate-Smart Landscapes Network to mitigate and adapt to climate change impacts in Cambodia. for the Green Climate Fund Location : Phnom Penh, Cambodia preferred, but work can be done remotely Application Deadline : July 20 th, 2016 Languages Required : English Expected Duration of Assignment : Final product to be submitted by 30th, Background The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is a financial operating entity of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) which is established to contribute to the collective efforts of the international community to combat climate change. The GCF plans to fund programmatic approaches that provide an opportunity for a transformational shift in countries climate resilience and green economies, prioritizing a balanced approach between adaptation and mitigation. The concept note requested for this consultancy will be developed for the project that promotes using natural ecosystems to help communities better mitigate and adapt to Climate Change in Cambodia. Cambodia has one of the highest deforestation rates in the world. Cambodia's forest cover has plummeted from over 70% in 1970 to 57% in 2010 and the country s deforestation rates continue to accelerate (FAO, 2010). According to the World Bank, climate changes observed in Cambodia between 1960 and 2003 has been significant, though the mean rainfall trends are unclear and not statistically significant. Global Climate Models cannot clearly predict changes in precipitation, but expect rainfall to be greater during the monsoon season. Cambodia is currently one of the most disaster-prone countries in the region and there are indications that this will only increase with climate change. Given that nearly 80% of the population lives in rural areas with poor infrastructure, the country s vulnerability to climate change is considered to be very high. Economic Land Concessions have cleared 2.5 million hectares of forest in a mere five year period, leading to hundreds of millions of tons of CO 2 e emissions and further exacerbating the vulnerability of local populations by removing the natural buffer that forests provide against floods, droughts and climatic changes. 1
2 Given the importance of the area, the Cambodian government has an interest in working with communities to help conserve the Cardamom mountains and the Eastern plains landscape forest ecosystems as demonstration sites for a national sustainable landscapes policy and funding mechanism. The are the focal areas of the project. The project objectives are: To prevent the emission of some 500 million tonnes of CO 2 e; To increase incomes with agriculture communities by at least 25%; and, To create investment opportunities for climate-smart economic land concessions and renewable energy projects The project will directly benefit about 100,000 people anticipated to be involved in project activities, and indirectly benefit some 5 million people that depend on the critical ecosystems covered by the 2 target landscapes. Cambodia is ranked number one in overall vulnerability according to Standard & Poor s (S&P) climate change ranking. Despite this high vulnerability, investment in joint mitigation and adaptation strategies has been minimal in Cambodia. This project aims to fully realize the mitigation and adaptation potential of natural ecosystems, which offer immediate, low cost and tested climate solutions at scale. 2. Partners The concept note will be prepared by a partnership between CI the Government of Cambodia Ministry of Environment and the following organizations: WWF WCS Mekong Strategic Partners The project will include: on the ground activities in large landscapes, establishment and operation of a loan facility, the establishment of sustainable long term financing to support landscape work in perpetuity through an endowment/sinking fund 2. Scope of work, Deliverables, duties and responsibilities The consultant(s) will be responsible for design and development of a concept note which CI and partners will use to share with the GCF, stakeholders, and potential loan investors before completing the full proposal. The project team in Cambodia has already drafted Theory of Change, the loan design, and the organizational chart for the project, and have begun to frame the transformative change, paradigm shift and conceive of the ways that the program addresses major barriers to achieve lasting impacts. The consultant needs to use this information and organize and harmonize paradigm shift objectives-impacts- 2
3 outcomes of components into a concise summary, providing expertise in climate change mitigation and adaptation, proposal writing and packaging into what will ultimately be used to develop the final GCF proposal document pending favorable GCF Secretariat review in October The consultant(s) will be responsible for the preparation of a consistent concept note based on existing and expanding analytical work, and an initial review of national strategies and studies to make sure the work is in alignment with Green Climate Fund (GCF) requirements. They will also produce a desktop study gathering project information needed and to identify the gaps and propose areas of further work needed to complete the final Proposal to the GCF. In close collaboration with Partners, the consultant will have the following overall duties and responsibilities: Finalize with CI-Cambodia and partners the existing theory of change, logical framework with indicators and paradigm shift potential of the program by defining the degree to which the proposed activities can catalyze impact beyond a one-off program investment, including long term financial sustainability (note this work is largely completed); Develop a draft GCF concept note that utilizes existing documents and data and is consistent with GCF requirements. The concept note draft includes text covering all sections that are listed in the GCF concept note Template available on the GCF website ( - working with the Partners to identify any gaps that may need to be filled during the development of the full proposal (template also available on the GCF website) assuming favorable review by government and the GCF secretariat. Develop a stakeholder engagement strategy to be implemented during the full project development. Desktop study gathering data for the CC justification, baseline study and feasibility study. This should be written as a brief report that summarizes the information and data used to write the concept as well as propose scopes of work for completing any gaps in information that will needed to write the full proposal for the GCF. It should also come with a dropbox storing all information and data gathered by the consultant(s) to prepare the concept note. The product of this consultancy is a concept note which uses the GCF template and that responds to the requirements of the Green Climate Fund. To facilitate a timely yet inclusive process, the consultant(s) will plan to spend significant time in Cambodia to meet with the team and have meetings with government so that all of the information needed to write the concept and complete the desktop study and stakeholder engagement strategy can be completed. Writing after the Cambodia visit can take place remotely. Deliverable Duties and responsibilities Due Consultant(s) CI and Partners Date Meetings with Partners in Cambodia and reviewing existing project materials Lead Make themselves available August 30th 3

First draft of the GCF Concept note A stakeholder engagement strategy. This includes consultation with key partners for the project and identifying a plan to engage in the future the stakeholder groups that are linked to the various interventions which will need to be consulted with during the full proposal development. A desktop study gathering data for the CC justification, baseline study and feasibility study. This includes baseline data to quantify carbon emissions, vulnerability and projected referenced climate change impacts; studies relevant to the private sector/loan model proposed including status of Cambodian banking sector and foreign investment opportunities; studies relevant to the renewable energy and ELC project design and markets/project pipeline potential; and background documents on the 2 focal landscapes that provide justifications explaining success of the interventions proposed for each landscape in preparation for the interventions feasibility work.
