Sri Lanka.Lieu de travailWorking remotely and Onsite in Colombo, Sri Lanka Durée prévue4 months Fonctions et responsabilitésThe United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) 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.
The overall objective of the UNEP's Economy Division is to encourage decision makers in government, local authorities and industry to develop and adopt policies, strategies and practices and technologies that promote sustainable patterns of consumption and production, make efficient use of natural resources, ensure safe management of chemicals and contribute to making trade and environment policies mutually supportive.
It promotes the development, use and transfer of policies, technologies, economic instruments, managerial practices and other tools that assist in environmentally sound decision making and the building of corresponding activities.
The United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) is the strategic partnership between the United Nations and over 300 banks, insurers and investors.
For over 28 years UNEP FI has been shaping and driving the international sustainable finance agenda, setting global standards and growing a global network of leading financial institutions.
Through its work-streams and regional activities, peer learning, methodology development, training and research, UNEP FI promotes sustainable finance and helps the financial industry align with and contribute to the Paris Agreement and Sustainable Development Goals.
The V20 led Sustainable Insurance Facility (SIF) is a project pipeline development facility, convened under the Principles for Sustainable Insurance initiative (PSI) to assist the Vulnerable 20 (V20) membership in scoping the financial protection needs of Micro, Small and Medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the context of climate change and facilitate project concept note and proposal development under the leadership of the V20 Finance ministries.
The SIF builds on the demand expressed by the V20 Risk Focus Group during the V20 Asia-Pacific Regional Meetings at the Asian Development Bank in Manila in 2017.
The SIF is operationalized through the SIF Project Office hosted by the UN Environment Programme's Principles for Sustainable Insurance (PSI) supported through the Munich Climate Insurance Initiative (MCII), and operate under the guidance of the V20.
The work of the Office is included in the V20 Work Plan and currently funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
Hosted by PSI, the SIF Secretariat team builds on PSI's positioning as a global convener to fulfil the core mandate of the SIF, which is developing country demand-driven proposals and functioning as an impartial matchmaker to link implementation demand and supply.
The PSI's global convening power and industry networks supports the SIF in building regional and local insurance capacities.Moreover, the SIF secretariat leverages the PSI network to identify and realize collaborative potentials between the global and local industry and integrate PSI's expertise on insurance industry perspectives on climate resilience and low carbon growth.
Hosted in PSI, the SIF is also well-positioned to promote the V20's sustainable insurance interests on a global level, including through the InsuResilience Global Partnership, the Insurance Development Forum, the Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosure and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Under the direction and supervision of the PSI Programme Leader, the Consultant will support the development of a comprehensive project plan aimed at addressing challenges related to the adoption of climate-smart insurance solutions for borrowers of the Regional Development Bank (RDB) in Sri Lanka, in accordance with V20 SIF's mandate to develop a pipeline of climate smart insurance solutions for MSMEs and agribusinesses in V20 Markets.
In doing so, the Consultant will also liaise with the wider V20 SIF/PSI/UNEP FI team and the Regional Development Bank of Sri Lanka team, particularly the PSI Programme Supervisor, V20 SIF global coordinator and the V20 SIF coordinator for Asia-Pacific.
