**Responsibilities**:
The 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 450 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.

By 2100, climate change is expected to result in up to a 7% drop in Indonesia’s GDP, yet 38% of the country’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) to the Paris Agreement remain underfunded. Indonesia requires around USD 20.6 billion annually to implement climate action by 2030. If funding gaps are not addressed, Indonesians will experience direct negative impacts from climate change. These negative impacts will directly harm Indonesia's most vulnerable populations and particularly women. Market failures and the lack of enabling environment are impeding public and private investments at scale.

UNEP is part of the Participating UN Organisations (PUNOs) to the UN Joint SDG Fund project, “Accelerating Sustainable Development Goals Investments in Indonesia Joint Programme”. The Joint Programme (JP) intends to support the Government of Indonesia in reducing the financing gap and accelerating the achievement of the SDGs through increased financing from innovative financing mechanisms and instruments from both government and non-government sources.

Within this JP, this consultancy aims to support UNEP which together with UNIDO are providing technical assistance to Indonesian banks and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) to improve institutional capacities to access and utilize finance towards the achievement of the SDGs through the development of a series of SDGs-linked loans. The Junior Consultant will work to assist the Indonesia SME Financing Consultant with the implementation of the JP (80% of the total consulting time). The Junior Consultant will be expected to assist UNEP’s Programme Management Officer in the coordination of projects in Indonesia (20%).
