**Background**

**Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core principles at UNDP: we value diversity as an expression of the multiplicity of nations and cultures where we operate, we foster inclusion as a way of ensuring all personnel are empowered to contribute to our mission, and we ensure equity and fairness in all our actions. Taking a ‘leave no one behind’ approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations. People who identify as belonging to marginalized or excluded populations are strongly encouraged to apply. Learn more about working at UNDP including our values and **inspiring stories.**

Central Africa is home to the second largest tropical rainforest in the world. Forest loss is accelerating despite ongoing efforts, as government action alone has not been sufficient to establish an effective balance between the interests of the forest and of economic development.

On this basis, a coalition of willing donors - Norway, European Union, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Netherlands, and South Korea - together with Central African partner countries - Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of Cameroon, the Republic of Congo, the Republic of Equatorial Guinea, and the Republic of Gabon - have entered in 2015 into a collaborative partnership to establish in partnership with the United Nations, the Central African Forest Initiative (CAFI). The objective of this initiative is to recognize and preserve the value of the forests in the region to mitigate climate change, reduce poverty, and contribute to sustainable development. This objective will be attained through the implementation of country-led, national scale REDD+ and Low Emissions Development (LED) investment frameworks that include policy reforms and measures to address the drivers of deforestation and forest degradation and promote sustainable development.

The management of the CAFI Trust Fund is carried out at three levels:

- The Executive Board (EB), supported by the Secretariat, is responsible for overall coordination with CAFI Partner Countries and decisions regarding the allocation of resources from the CAFI Fund;
- UNDP MPTFO is responsible for administering the CAFI Fund; and
- UN agencies, the World Bank, bilateral cooperation agencies and international non-governmental organizations serve as Implementing Organizations to assist CAFI Partner Countries to implement NIFs that have been endorsed by the CAFI Board

**Position Purpose**:
The Chief of Programming will coordinate CAFI’s strategic programing efforts in the six partner countries from both a country and regional perspective, through networks with government, development partners and non-state actors. The Chief will work to leverage the funding allocation strategy vis-à-vis the expected results from CAFI’s Result Framework and in line with the strategy defined by the Executive Board. The Chief of Programming will coordinate a comprehensive unit and set of processes ranging from technical support, monitoring & evaluation, reporting and communication, innovation, amidst others. The Chief of Programming will ensure that funds are properly channeled, accounted for, that results are being monitored and reported accordingly and towards the expected results.

UNDP adopts a portfolio approach to accommodate changing business needs and leverage linkages across interventions to achieve its strategic goals. Therefore, UNDP personnel are expected to work across units, functions, teams, and projects in multidisciplinary teams in order to enhance and enable horizontal collaboration.

**Duties and Responsibilities**

**Lead the development of the CAFI programmatic portfolio, to secure available funding and demonstrate the need for additional funding.**
- Identify and assess needs and priority areas for investment.
- Identify, propose and implement results-based operational approaches.
- Plan and implement the programing team’s contributions to the programming process (programme development and implementation oversight).
- Oversee the drafting of guidance notes and terms of reference for calls for expressions of interest/proposals, ensuring achievement of the deliverables and milestones defined in the letter of intent signed with CAFI.
- Establish criteria for evaluating EOIs and program proposals.
