TEMPORARY APPOINTMENT OF PROJECT PERSONNEL

**ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT**

The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) is the specialized agency of the United Nations that promotes industrial development for poverty reduction, inclusive globalization and environmental sustainability. The mission of UNIDO, as described in the Lima Declaration adopted at the fifteenth session of the UNIDO General Conference in 2013 as well as the Abu Dhabi Declaration adopted at the eighteenth session of UNIDO General Conference in 2019, is to promote and accelerate inclusive and sustainable industrial development (ISID) in Member States. The relevance of ISID as an integrated approach to all three pillars of sustainable development is recognized by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which will frame United Nations and country efforts towards sustainable development. UNIDO’s mandate is fully recognized in SDG-9, which calls to “Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”. The relevance of ISID, however, applies in greater or lesser extent to all SDGs. Accordingly, the Organization’s programmatic focus is structured in four strategic priorities: Creating shared prosperity; Advancing economic competitiveness; Safeguarding the environment; and Strengthening knowledge and institutions.

Each of these programmatic fields of activity contains a number of individual programmes, which are implemented in a holistic manner to achieve effective outcomes and impacts through UNIDO’s four enabling functions: (i) technical cooperation; (ii) analytical and research functions and policy advisory services; (iii) normative functions and standards and quality-related activities; and (iv) convening and partnerships for knowledge transfer, networking and industrial cooperation. Such core functions are carried out in Departments/Offices in its Headquarters, Regional Offices and Hubs and Country Offices.

This position is located under the Climate Technologies Innovation Unit (TCS/DSE/CTI) which is responsible for supporting Member States with access to and uptake of low-carbon, climate-friendly and clean energy technologies and innovations promoting those among firms and entrepreneurs. In addition, the Unit is responsible, in close collaboration with other relevant entities in the Organization, for facilitating the transfer of and establishing markets for low-carbon technologies, ensuring wide use by industry and local communities, thereby contributing to climate mitigation and resilience in recipient countries. The Unit positions UNIDO strategically in the global cleantech innovation support and coordinates partnerships with the technology mechanism of the UNFCCC, including the co-management of the CTCN on behalf of UNIDO.

**PROJECT CONTEXT**

“Enhancing Lesotho’s private sector readiness for a clean energy transition” is a UNIDO project developed and implemented in partnership with Ministry of Energy and Meteorology of Lesotho and the Green Climate Fund, under the GCF Readiness and Preparatory Support Programme.

The project aims to enhance the readiness of Lesotho’s private sector to develop, commercialize, and invest in climate and clean energy (cleantech) solutions, as well as to maximize the economic growth opportunities embedded therein, while supporting Lesotho in reaching its NDC targets. To this end, this proposal will focus on three areas of intervention:

- Strengthening private sector’s capacity, systems, and networks to support the planning, programing, and implementation of GCF funded activities
- Developing a strategy to create a conducive environment for attracting private sector investment for cleantech solutions
- Developing a pipeline of investment-grade solutions, and two concept notes to leverage private sector financing for large-scale deployment of cleantech solutions

Private sector capacity strengthening will involve two types of direct beneficiaries:

- Business model enhancement and business growth support provided to private sector enterprises (early-stage cleantech entrepreneurs, start-ups and SMEs) that are developing innovative cleantech solutions
- Training and certification of individuals as cleantech experts, to build their expertise and networks to coach and mentor early-stage enterprises

In addition, the present proposal will support the Government of Lesotho, and in particular the NDA, through the Private Sector Expert Committee. This Committee will be a formal channel for the NDA to solicit and receive private sector views and recommendations, and ensure that the private sector
