Deadline: 07-Jul-2020
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is accepting proposals for its Climate Change Fiscal Framework.
The study is a collaboration between three development partners, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), German Corporation for International Cooperation GmbH (GIZ). For the purpose of tender, the objectives of the study will be divided over three different Requests for Proposals (RFP) and managed by the separate development partners. This RFP only includes the objectives covered by UNDP, comprising outputs 1 and 5.
While the RFP for this assignment for five outputs are divided into three organizations, it is desirable for one consulting firm/organization to be appointed to implement and collaborate with the three organizations for the full task. Such a single consulting firm/organization would still be expected to apply for the three separate RFP from development partners.
- To provide the recommendations for the budgetary policy framework and its enabling environment, supporting the overall objectives of Indonesia’s climate fiscal policy;
- To elaborate on the role of fiscal tools and market mechanism towards managing climate finances to ensure sustainability of economic growth;
- To provide a government approach that broadly engages all relevant stakeholders, including the private sectors, in the mobilizing and managing climate change finance;
- Contribute to the integration of fiscal policy, SDGs commitment, NDC, RPJMN, and climate change, and provide the GoI with insights and tools to integrate Indonesia’s climate change development objectives;
- To identify institutional weaknesses and skill gaps with recommendations for enhancing the government’s capacity which eventually will equip them to develop long term financing plans for adversities emanating from climate change.

- Identification of climate related and estimation of short-, medium-, and longterm financing requirements across government ministries related to climate change activities;
- Identification of financing gaps and preferred modalities for delivering further sources of public sector financing investment and supporting non-fiscal (NDC sectoral priority) policies;
