Recruitment of an individual consultant for a development of web-based waste management data platform in the Maldives under Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) project

Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) is a project implemented jointly by the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Technology (MECCT) and UNEP DTU Partnership and is administered by United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS). The aim of this initiative is to strengthen national institutions to meet enhanced transparency requirements of the Paris Agreement.

Maldives as a party to United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) prioritize establishment of a Measuring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) system to meet the transparency requirement of the Paris Agreement. Maldives have periodically submitted relevant GHG information to the UNFCCC; for instance, two inventories were submitted so far in the First and Second National Communications, the INDC was submitted in September 2015, specifying mitigation actions to be developed and implemented in the coming years.

At sectoral level, mitigation action development in the Maldives is focused on three main sectors: Energy, Waste, and Transport. The waste sector is the one with the strongest need for development regarding MRV more specifically in relation to the absence of data collection and data management procedures and methods, lack of legal mandates for implementing compulsory data reporting of waste generators (e.g. the tourism sector), and high levels of inaccuracies due to lack of data verification means. Also, waste sector is a key category of the GHG inventory.

The MECCT is seeking a potential individual consultant to develop a web-based waste management data platform in the Maldives.

The Terms of Reference of the consultancy is available on the Ministry of Environment website www.environment.gov.mv for downloading. It is also attached with this advertisement..
