| Overview : UNDP Vietnam is seeking for 01 qualified Vietnam-based firm/institute/organization for Provision of trainings to Cooperatives and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) on risk management. (Ref. 2-200903) The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has spread rapidly throughout the world. As in many other countries, Viet Nam has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic, together with the preventive measures, has caused unprecedented human, social and economic disruption. Economic impact leading to shut down of businesses, reduced demands, and supply chain disruptions is serious. In Viet Nam, businesses including Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), Micro SMEs (MSMEs) and cooperatives are experiencing significantly adverse impacts. The disruption of supply chain and reduced purchase of goods and services contribute to interruptions of international and domestic production and trade resulting in reduced earning, loss of income and reductions in work hours and unemployment. The overall objectives of assignment are to: - Develop training programme and training materials on risk management in order to raise awareness and build capacities of SMEs, MSMEs and cooperatives (particularly agricultural cooperatives) on the prevention and management of business risks due to COVID-19 and other emergencies, external shocks and environmental risks - Deliver five training workshops (two days each) in five cities/provinces based on the developed training programme and training materials. The selection will be based on a competitive basis and will comply with UNDP procurement regulations.
