1. Context and Background UNECA is the Delivery Partner (DP) of the RESIslands Project\u2013\u2013”Strengthening the institutional capacities of the African Island States Climate Commission (AISCC) member states to manage climate risks and bolster resilience”\u2013\u2013 which is a multi-country Readiness initiative covering nine African Island States: Cabo\u202fVerde, Comoros, Equatorial\u202fGuinea, Guinea Bissau, Madagascar, Mauritius, S\u00e3o\u202fTom\u00e9\u202f&\u202fPr\u00edncipe, Seychelles, and Tanzania (Zanzibar). The project is supported by the Green Climate Fund and implemented in close collaboration with the AISCC, the UN Resident Coordinator Offices and the National Designated Authorities (NDA) in the project countries. The project will strengthen AISCC and its member states\u2019 institutional capacities and decision-making for climate resilience, by enhancing the delivery of multi-hazard risk assessments to natural disasters, particularly climate variability and change. The objectives are to build capacities in AISSC member states, support the strategic frameworks, develop a pipeline of projects, and promote knowledge sharing and learning. The main direct stakeholders are the government institutions of the AISCC member states involved in the project. These include key ministries such as Climate, Finance, Planning, Environment, Blue Economy, Health, DRR, Security, Energy, Infrastructure, Land development. The indirect beneficiaries are the African islands population as a whole, in particular vulnerable communities and those more exposed to climate change that need to be better protected to multi-hazard risks. 2. Organizational Setting and Reporting The Country Lead will be embedded within the NDA (or designated institution) of their respective country and will report directly to the Program Coordinator at UNECA CFND, with dotted-line communication to the national NDA and the AISCC NFP. They will work under UNECA\u2019s Project Management Unit (PMU) supervision, and in close collaboration with the AISCC, EW4ALL partners, and international consultants, experts and service providers involved in each activity of the project. 3. Objectives and Purpose The Country Lead will: \u2022 Serve as the in-country focal point and local facilitator for all RESIslands activities implemented in their country of responsibility<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":207,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","job_listing_type":[17],"job_listing_category":[210],"job_listing_location":[4],"job_listing_tag":[],"class_list":["post-29879","job_listing","type-job_listing","status-publish","hentry","job_listing_type-full-time","job_listing_category-project-management-and-administration","job_listing_location-addis-ababa","is-featured"],"metas":{"_job_logo":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp-job-board-pro-uploads\/_job_logo\/2026\/04\/United-Nations.webp","custom-text-26140818":"United Nations","_job_featured":"on","_job_tag":[],"_job_filled":"","_job_urgent":"","_job_type":{"17":"Full Time"},"custom-select-24762152":"Onsite","_job_category":{"210":"Project Management And Administration"},"_job_expiry_date":"","_job_gender":"Both","_job_salary_type":"monthly","custom-number-21785310":"1","_job_experience":"","custom-select-25910079":"5 \u2013 10 Years","_job_qualification":"Master\u2019s Degree","_job_application_deadline_date":"2026-04-02","_job_location":{"4":"Addis Ababa"},"_job_apply_type":"external","_job_apply_url":"https:\/\/careers.un.org\/jobSearchDescription\/274462?language=en","_job_apply_email":"","_job_phone":"","_job_employer_name":"Beleqet Jobs","_job_employer_url":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/employer\/meseret\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing\/29879","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/job_listing"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29879"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29879"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"job_listing_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_type?post=29879"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_category?post=29879"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_location?post=29879"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beleqet.com\/vacancy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_tag?post=29879"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
