Learn more at&nbsp;undp.org&nbsp;or follow at @UNDP&nbsp;</p><br> <p>Iraq is recognized as one of the most affected countries by the harmful effects of climate change. Iraq ratified the Paris Agreement on January 14, 2021. In October 2021, the Government of Iraq (GoI) signed their first National Determined Contribution (NDC), which has been presented at the COP26. The Government of Iraq has requested UNDP support in implementation of the NDC, including through capacity development, advisory for sectoral planning and formulation of related strategies, frameworks, and instruments.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>UNDP is the knowledge frontier organization for sustainable development in the UN Development System and serves as the integrator for collective action to realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UNDP's policy work carried out at HQ, Regional and Country Office levels offers a spectrum of deep local knowledge to cutting-edge global perspectives and advocacy. UNDP invests in the Global Policy Network (GPN), a network of field-based and global technical expertise across a wide range of knowledge domains in support of the signature solutions and organizational capabilities envisioned in UNDP's Strategic Plan.</p><br> <p>UNDP is an accredited Implementing Agency for the Global Environment Facility (GEF) Trust Fund and the family of funds such as the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF), the Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF), and the Global Biodiversity Framework Fund (GBBF). As an Implementing Agency, UNDP offers countries highly specialized services for eligibility assessment, project formulation and due diligence, co-financing mobilization, implementation oversight, results management and evaluation, and knowledge management.</p><br> <p>Iraq faces significant environmental and public health risks associated with persistent organic pollutants (POPs), hazardous chemicals, obsolete pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), unintentional POPs (UPOPs), industrial POPs (IPOPs), and chemically contaminated sites. Previous assessments identified substantial quantities of obsolete pesticides and potentially PCB-contaminated electrical equipment and highlighted significant technical and institutional capacity gaps in chemicals and contaminated-sites management.</p><br> <p>The Government of Iraq is a Party to major international chemicals and waste conventions, including the Stockholm, Basel, Rotterdam and Minamata Conventions. Iraq has previously developed a National Implementation Plan (NIP) under the Stockholm Convention; however, the existing NIP requires updating to reflect newly listed POPs, improved inventories, updated risk information, institutional developments and current national priorities.</p><br> <p>The Integrated Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and Chemical Hotspots Management Project, therefore adopts an integrated approach combining:</p><br> <ul> <li>strengthening the national framework for POPs and hazardous chemicals management;</li> <li>updating the national POPs inventories and National Implementation Plan;</li> <li>strengthening laboratory, inspection, monitoring and institutional capacities;</li> <li>environmentally sound management and disposal of obsolete pesticides;</li> <li>management and disposal/phase-out of PCB-contaminated equipment, oils and waste; and</li> <li>assessment and remediation planning for priority chemical pollution hotspots.</li> </ul> <p>The project comprises three components. Component 1 focuses on improved management of POPs and hazardous chemicals; Component 2 focuses on high-risk POPs in the agriculture and power sectors; and Component 3 addresses chemical pollution hotspots and contaminated sites.</p><br> <p>Implementation will require extensive technical assistance, consultancy services, procurement of laboratory and field equipment, hazardous waste management services, capacity building, site assessments, remediation planning and policy/regulatory development.</p><br> <p>The project will be implemented by UNDP through an Output Agreement with the Ministry of Environment. The Project Manager will therefore be the principal day-to-day focal point for implementation and coordination within the project management structure.</p><br> <p><strong>Institutional Arrangement</strong></p><br> <p>The Project Manager will directly report to the Programme Specilaist with matrix reporting to the chief technical specialist of the Environment, Energy and Climate Change (EECC), UNDP Iraq. The position holder will be part of a dynamic team of national and international experts working on policy advocacy, capacity building, innovation and sharing best practices with national stakeholders on climate change, environmental management and POPs and Chemical Hotspots Management.</p><br> <p><strong>Duties and Responsibilities</strong></p><br> <p><strong>Provide Strategic Technical Direction and Leadership</strong></p><br> <ul> <li>Lead strategic planning for the project as well as formulation and periodic revisions of the project’s annual work plan (AWP),&nbsp;including plans for budget, HR and procurement that are developed in close coordination with UNDP’s Country Office Programme, HR, and Procurement teams.
