Job Description
SUMMARY OF THE POSITION
The Expert Deployment Mechanism for Trade and Development (EDM), funded by Global Affairs Canada, seeks technical experts to design and deliver training on preparing export market intelligence briefs for Paraguayan trade officials. This initiative supports the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and the Vice-Ministry of MSMEs (VM/MSME) in enhancing their export development services, particularly for MSMEs and marginalized groups. The experts will develop a comprehensive training course, model briefs, and a manual delivered in Spanish, with a focus on inclusive and sustainable trade practices.
Background: Funded by Global Affairs Canada, the Expert Deployment Mechanism for Trade and Development (EDM) provides technical assistance to Official Development Assistance (ODA)-eligible countries to maximize the development impacts of trade and investment. Over seven years (2018-2025), EDM will invest CAD 16.5 million to support Canada's developing country trading partners to negotiate, implement, benefit from, and adapt to trade and investment agreements with Canada.
EDM is a demand-driven project that will benefit potential partners – including governments, local private sector groups and local civil society organizations – through capacity building and technical advisory support on policy reform issues that have a high potential to reduce poverty and gender inequalities and support progress in trade and investment agreement negotiations.
Paraguay has been identified by Global Affairs Canada as a priority country for EDM technical assistance, in the context of the ongoing Canada-MERCOSUR free trade agreement negotiations. EDM assistance has been provided to deepen Paraguayan trade officials’ understanding of negotiating issues and develop negotiating positions, including on services, investment, regulatory cooperation, rules of origin and gender provisions in trade agreements.
The Canada-MERCOSUR negotiations have been paused, and the focus of EDM assistance has shifted to strengthening trade support organizations, including public and private sector entities. Priority consideration has been given to improving export development services for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) and marginalized groups – women, Indigenous and minority-owned businesses. The ultimate objective of this assistance is to increase export revenues, create jobs and reduce poverty.
A recent EDM mission to Paraguay found a relatively strong recovery from the economic downturn during the COVID-19 pandemic. A return to strong GDP growth was achieved in 2022, with an increase of 4.7% over the previous year. However, Paraguay remains overly dependent on a few export products and is vulnerable to downturns in global demand for commodities and natural resources. Expanding the manufacturing sector and diversifying export products and markets are priorities for Paraguay.
In this context, two government agencies have requested EDM support to strengthen their export development support to Paraguayan exporters – and specifically to MSMEs – through training to trade promotion officials. More specifically, training and tools were requested on how to prepare export market intelligence briefs from publicly available information sources. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has requested this training for commercial attaches posted in missions abroad, while the Vice-Ministry of MSMEs (VM/MSME) within the Ministry of Industry and Commerce has requested the training for officials responsible for MSME export promotion services in Paraguay. The VM/MSME request is part of a broader strategy to promote the use of the Exporta Facil program and encourage the formalization of MSMEs.
Linkage to EDM Performance Measurement Framework
This assistance is consistent with the EDM Performance Management Framework, Immediate Outcome 1220: Increased capacity of partner country MDAs to expand access to export-oriented economic opportunities for SMEs, particularly those led by women, indigenous or other under-represented groups.
The assistance is also aligned with the EDM Country Needs Assessment Plan for Paraguay, Mandate 1: Strengthening Trade Promotion.
Description of Technical Assistance Request/Key Responsibilities
The technical expert(s) will:
- Design a training course on the preparation of export market intelligence briefs, including a model brief and manual for trade promotion officials; and
- Deliver the course to MFA commercial attaches and trade promotion officials of VM/MSME (this training may be in hybrid, in-person, and/or virtual format in order to permit the participation of MFA officials posted abroad).
- The training and supporting materials are to be delivered in Spanish. Translation and simultaneous interpretation services can be provided and funded separately by EDM. An audiovisual recording of the training event should be prepared for continued use by the beneficiaries and to extend the reach of the technical assistance.
The EDM promotes gender equality and social inclusion and environmental sustainability as cross-cutting objectives of all technical assistance. Proposals should explain how these objectives will be integrated into the assistance activity, including through the participation of women, Indigenous Peoples and other marginalized groups in the design and delivery of this technical assistance activity.
Technical Expert Profile/Expertise Required
Experts bidding for this technical assistance activity must demonstrate expert knowledge and extensive experience in the following:
- the development of export market intelligence briefs from publicly available information sources;
- the delivery of trade-related technical assistance to developing countries;
- the design and delivery of adult education activities;
- an inclusive approach to trade, which considers the perspectives of women, Indigenous Peoples, SMEs, and/or other marginalized groups; and
- the linkages between trade and the environment.
Note: The EDM includes a core focus on gender and social inclusion, as well as on environmental issues associated with trade activities. Successful applicants must research and integrate specific good and emerging practices in these areas, partnering with other expert consultants if necessary. Any prior experience providing TA on gender equality, social inclusion, and the environment will be considered a strong asset. Before starting activities, the successful consultant (s) will be required to complete the Government of Canada's online Gender-Based Analysis Plus (GBA+) training (approximately 2 hours).
Timelines: The recruitment of experts is expected to be completed in August 2024. The technical assistance activity is expected to be completed by May 2025.
Deliverables
- A detailed work plan, work schedule and budget for the delivery of activities.
- Completed EDM Performance Measurement Framework template for the TA, including baseline data and targets against EDM indicators.
- Draft and final versions of the training programs and all related teaching materials.
- Final Narrative Report on Mandate: Due within 30 calendar days of completing all TA activities. The report shall describe activities delivered; results achieved (versus initial expected results and baseline); lessons learned relevant to future EDM activities, and expenses incurred by the Consultant in carrying out this mandate. This report will be reviewed and approved by EDM before being shared with Global Affairs Canada.
Proposal Submission Process: For your proposal to be considered, please name your document in the following format:
2.12 Consultant Last Name, First Name (Proposals can be submitted by a single consultant or a consortium of consultants). Your proposal should be in English and contain the following sections:
