Against this backdrop, the UNCT is implementing the New Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF 2025–2029), aligned with National Priorities and structured around four pillars: inclusive social development, economic transformation, environmental sustainability, and governance. As outlined in the Partnership and Resource Mobilization Strategy, Iraq’s development model remains vulnerable to oil dependency, fiscal volatility, and external shocks. In response to requests for coordinated analytical and policy support related to emerging fiscal liquidity pressures and broader socioeconomic risks, the Resident Coordinator (RC), with the RC Office (RCO) support, in collaboration with the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) and the UNCT, led the development of a joint analytical paper entitled “Stabilizing Liquidity and Restoring Fiscal Sustainability in Iraq.” The paper identified immediate and medium-term priorities related to liquidity stabilization, public financial management, revenue mobilization, continuity of essential services, and socioeconomic resilience. The analytical work generated follow-up requirements in support of joined-up UNCT engagements related to the immediate priority recommendations, including consolidation of analytical inputs, scenario-informed planning, synthesis of emerging socioeconomic trends and risks. In this context, the UNCT seeks a short-term consultant to support analytical consolidation, strategic planning support, and preparation of briefing and synthesis materials in coordination with relevant UN entities, particularly UNESCWA.

This will include compiling inputs from Results Groups and UN entities, identifying emerging risks and operational constraints, and supporting the development of options for prioritisation and sequencing in light of the evolving socioeconomic and operational dynamics. • Support follow-up coordination related to immediate priority areas identified in the joint UNESCWA–UNCT analytical paper “Stabilizing Liquidity and Restoring Fiscal Sustainability in Iraq,” including issues related to liquidity stabilization, continuity of essential services, public financial management considerations, socioeconomic resilience, and impacts on vulnerable populations. • Prepare concise synthesis and briefing materials (e.g., briefing notes, summaries, presentations) for the Resident Coordinator and the UNCT, based on contributions from technical teams, to inform UNCT discussions, strategic positioning, and engagement with partners. • Under the overall supervision of the RCO Head of Integrated Office, Senior Coordination and Development Officer and Strategic Advisor, support RC-led coordinated engagement with government counterparts and development partners, by organizing inputs, preparing background materials, and contributing to consistent and aligned messaging.<br> Qualifications/special skills<br>A masters degree in development studies, public or business administration, economics, social sciences, or related field is required.

To review the full Terms of Reference (TOR), please follow link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mveYtDPIgUBcruz4jiHgjoG1JQfjs01Q/view?usp=drive_link Organisational and Country Context The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world s largest humanitarian organisation, dedicated to saving lives in emergencies and promoting sustainable recovery for populations affected by conflict, disasters, and climate change. In Iraq, WFP supports the development and strengthening of the social protection system by partnering with the government to advance skills development, food security, social assistance, social insurance, and the resilience of vulnerable populations. For further details, visit our webpages at wfp.org/countries/Iraq and ar.wfp.org/countries/Iraq. WFP has adopted a robust and proactive approach to social protection, as outlined in its 2021 Corporate Strategy for Support to Social Protection . This approach is a key pillar of WFP's 'changing lives' agenda, prominently featured in the Strategic Plan for 2021. Social protection, as a rapidly expanding priority area, is now central to WFP s work across all regions and in more than 98 countries , including Iraq, underscoring its critical importance at both national and global levels. In 2023, WFP supported nationally led social protection systems and programmes in 98 countries across all operational regions, up from 88 in 2022. This growth reflects WFP's commitment to strengthening social protection as a core pillar of its global strategy to achieve Zero Hunger under Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2). Iraq has an extensive social protection system, with social expenditure increasing from 23.7% of the Government of Iraq's spending in 2019 to 26.9% in 2023. The system is anchored by the Public Distribution System (PDS), one of the world's largest food assistance programmes, which reaches approximately 96% of the Iraqi population one of the highest coverage rates globally. In addition, the Social Safety Net (SSN) and the Persons with Disabilities Programme (PwD) provide income and service support to some of the most vulnerable groups. However, fiscal space remains constrained. The Federal Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) have committed to undertaking comprehensive reforms of their social protection system to support inclusion and equity, foster capacity-driven empowerment, bolster economic opportunity and security, and ensure sustainability and adaptability. To this end, they have established a partnership with the World Food Programme (WFP), the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the United Nations Children s Fund (UNICEF), under the European Union supported UN Joint Programme "Leveraging Effective Response and Accelerating Reform for Social Protection in Iraq." The Joint Programme is structured around broad outcome areas aimed at contributing to the reduction of poverty and vulnerability in Iraq through an inclusive, shock-responsive, child-, gender-, and disability-sensitive social protection system. These overarching outcomes are operationalised through a set of activities led and implemented by each participating agency according to its areas of expertise, with the ultimate objective of achieving the Programme s shared goals. As part of this partnership, WFP provides technical and operational advisory to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of Iraq s social protection policies and programmes. Its services cover key areas including food security and nutrition, social inclusion, shock- responsive and adaptive social protection, school feeding, economic empowerment pathways for social safety net beneficiaries, and digitalisation. Through these efforts, WFP supports the development and operationalisation of major reforms aimed at strengthening the national social protection system, including Iraq s first single registry, school meals policy, and national social protection system, as well as the modelling and piloting of economic empowerment pathways.
