Jordan has limited forest resources with less than 1.5% of the country being classified as forests. Of this forest land, only 26% have forest cover with a canopy density of 10% or more and the rest is mostly composed of land sparsely covered with vegetation.  The forests in Jordan, especially natural forests, are fragmented, open in density, slow growing, of degraded conditions and, thus, of low commercial value. Commercial forests are only expected in areas receiving more than 400 mm of precipitation annually. Such lands constitute only 9% of the total forestlands. Afforestation activities can be implemented in areas receiving more than 250 mm/year which constitute 8.3% of the total forestland.

The purpose of this consultancy is to work with the Government of Jordan, with the support from UNDP, to develop a project proposal that is eligible for funding by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), and technically feasible by UNDP criteria.  The consultant will prepare a Project Identification Form (PIF) .

Technical and financial proposals along with CV & 3 references should be submitted, and without such will not be considered).
