Organizational setting

The United Nations Environment Programme is the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system and serves as an authoritative advocate for the global environment. At the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, world leaders agreed on a comprehensive strategy for 'sustainable development'. The Convention on Biological Diversity was opened for signature in Rio in 1992. The Convention has three main objectives: the conservation of biological diversity, the sustainable use of its components, and the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits arising from the use of genetic resources. The Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity (SCBD) is located in Montreal and administered by United Nations Environment Programme. Its main tasks are to arrange for and service meetings of the Conference of the Parties, including preparation of pertinent documentation, operation of the central node of the clearing-house mechanism, liaison and coordination with other international bodies and processes and, in close collaboration with these partners, the provision of technical support for the effective implementation of the Convention.

The NBSAP Accelerator Partnership was established to raise the ambition and political profile of NBSAPs and to accelerate their implementation to contribute to the achievement of the GBF goals and targets. This will be achieved through facilitating coherent access to financial and technical support, providing in-country/regional facilitation and matchmaking support, developing the technical and institutional capacity of relevant government agencies and national organizations; supporting knowledge management, increasing access to biodiversity knowledge products and tools, facilitating peer-to-peer learning and exchanges across countries, and strengthening biodiversity governance and synergies with other initiatives to enhance the implementation of NBSAPs.

The consultant will design and coordinate the knowledge management and learning activities of the Partnership, including analysing the country capacity needs and identifying strategic response actions and establishing a knowledge base of existing and emerging initiatives and tools supporting the revision and implementation of NBSAPs; establish procedures and protocols for monitoring and reporting of the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership; promote alignment of the Partnership's activities with relevant decisions of the CBD COP and foster synergies with other relevant initiatives.

Duties and Responsibilities:
Under the overall guidance of the Director of the Implementation Support (IMS) Division, direct supervision of the Head of the Capacity Building and Knowledge Management Unit, advice from the Head of the Monitoring, Review and National Reporting Unit and in close collaboration with the Global Coordinator of the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership, the consultant will be responsible for performing the following duties:
1. Deputize and support the Global Coordinator of the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership in providing strategic leadership and programmatic coordination of the Partnership’s activities, ensuring the engagement of the Partnership in intergovernmental processes related to biodiversity, including the Conference of the Parties (COP) and the subsidiary bodies of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), and the alignment of its support activities with relevant decisions of the CBD COP, including those related to the enhanced mechanisms for planning, monitoring, reporting and review.

2. Design and coordinate the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership's capacity development, technical and scientific cooperation, and knowledge management activities to facilitate the accelerated implementation of national biodiversity strategies and action plans (NBSAPs).

3. Establish procedures and protocols for monitoring and reporting of the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership's support activities and achievemen
