**Responsibilities**:
UNRSF was established in April 2018 as a multi-partner financing instrument to facilitate concrete action towards achievement of the road safety targets of Sustainable Development Goals 3.6 and 11.2. The Fund’s goal is to leverage the collective knowledge and capability of the UN system and all Fund stakeholders to achieve global impact and long-term developmental change through a substantial reduction in road traffic injuries and fatalities, and the economic loss arising therefrom.

The core priorities of this Call for Concept Notes are determined by UNRSF’s Global Framework Plan of Action for Road Safety (“the Framework”), which reflects a holistic and inclusive system approach to addressing challenges in road safety, building upon the proven success of the countries with the strongest records in road safety. Additional special priorities of this Call for Concept Notes are aligned to the Global Plan for the Decade of Action for Road Safety 2021-2030, namely projects with explicit consideration complementary to the SDGs; projects with multiple participating organizations joining expertise and submitting a proposals; projects supporting regional (multi-country) approach to address common challenges and; projects supporting pillar 3 on vehicle safety and/or pillar 5 on post-crash care

The total disbursement amount for this Call for Concept Notes will be US$ 4 million. With the approval of the UNRSF governing bodies, this Call for Concept Notes is open for a two-month period.

UNRSF Steering Committee will select concept notes for detailed project development taking into account an assessment undertaken by a panel of 2-3 technical road safety experts as well as an assessment undertaken by the UNRSF secretariat. The secretariat will organize information sessions on selected concept notes to increase opportunities for collaboration and synergies among road safety actors beyond the project team. Once fully developed in line with the recommendations of the UNRSF Steering Committee and technical road safety experts, detailed projects will be submitted to the UNRSF Steering Committee on a rolling basis for approval and decision to disburse project funding.

The objective of the assignment is to conduct appraisals of the eligible concept note proposals on the basis of the Application Guidelines for the 2023 Call for Concept Notes. Additionally, the road safety expert will help to finalize the secretariat’s preliminary criteria for, and support in the identification of participants to the information session in stage 2. The road safety expert will moderate the stage 2 information session and prepare a final list of recommendations emanating from the session which the project team shall take into account in the detailed project document.
