Deadline: 23-Aug-21
The Human Development Report Office (HDRO) and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is pleased to announce a call for proposals to Develop Human Risk Data Platform.
The mission of the Human Development Report Office (HDRO) is to advance human development. The goal is to contribute towards the expansion of opportunities, choice, and freedom.
The office works towards this goal by promoting innovative new ideas, advocating practical policy changes, and constructively challenging policies and approaches that constrain human development.
In addition, the office works with others to achieve change through writing and research, data analysis and presentation, support to the national and regional analysis, and outreach and advocacy work.
Objectives
Under the supervision of the UNDP Human Development Report Office (HDRO) production and digital manager, and working with the research and strategic partnership advisor, the Contractor will be responsible for:
- Design and build an interactive global data visualization/mapping tool that would show climate risk, impact and hazard data (including temperature, sea level rise, and others), including future data projections.
- The Contractor will build, test, and prepare to launch a visualization that lives on and coordinates. Technical contacts for HDRO will provide guidance and coordination on the final site launch.
Scope of Work and Deliverables
- Interactive Data Platform: The platform would include an interactive world map visualization with drop-down menus to show different layers of impact, and different time periods. Users would be able to compare across regions using the legend and learn more about the projections for a specific country in a tooltip. The tooltip may also illustrate uncertainty for a given impact. HDRO working with CIL will provide detailed functionality requirements in the initial meeting with the Contractor.
- A data story with preselected indicators: The data story would present the platform in an engaging/animated/interactive way for broad audience.
