| Overview : UNDP Viet Nam seeks 01 International Team Leader to conduct an assessment of data, capacity and Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMA) development process needs for NAMA development in the steel and chemical fertilizer sectors for project-: “Strengthening Capacity on Climate Change Initiatives in the Industry and Trade sectors” (CCIT).
The Government of Viet Nam is committed to develop climate change policies in different sectors of the economy, and has developed and adopted a number of policy frameworks related to climate change, especially in the industry and trade sectors, such as the National Target Programme to Respond to Climate Change (NTP-RCC), the National Cleaner Production Strategy in Industry until 2020, the National Energy Conservation Law, and the Viet Nam Energy Efficiency Programme (VNEEP). Government of Viet Nam has also launched the National Climate Change Strategy and the Green Growth Strategy. These policies provide principles and guidance for ministries and agencies directly engaged with climate change response, to create associated implementation plans and help achieve national targets.
As part of "Action Plan in Response to Climate Change” (AP-RCC) under the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT), the Government approved the project “Strengthening capacity on climate change initiatives in the Industry and Trade sectors” (CCIT project). The CCIT project will run for four years. It is partly funded by the UNDP’s Low Emission Capacity Building Programme, which directly supports and contributes to NAMA activities in the industry and trade sectors and to building capacities on GHG inventory management and Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) systems.
The objective of the assignment is to identify the technical gaps and capacity needs prior to a NAMA development process at MOIT. The activities and findings from this assignment will serve as foundation for building a NAMA framework at MOIT together with a later NAMA submission to the UNFCCC registry.
In addition, the assignment also includes an identification of data, MRV, processes, legal and institutional capacity needs in MOIT for establishing robust NAMAs in the two targeted industrial subsector – steel and chemical fertilizers. The findings must be supported with concrete actions and activities to overcome the identified needs.
