Description

WFD is issuing this Call for Experts ("Call") to a range of potential experts and we would welcome a
proposal from your organisation. This Call constitutes an Invitation to Tender ("ITT").

WFD has been actively supporting democratic development process in Georgia since 2009 through its Georgia Country Office (WFD Georgia). WFD Georgia has been primarily implementing the
parliamentary strengthening programmes funded by the British government as well as other donors like EU, UNDP and USAID. Those parliamentary democracy programmes were instrumental for
introducing and establishing parliamentary supervisory tools such as thematic inquiry and post-legislative scrutiny in Georgia. In 2021 WFD broadened its focus to include environmental democracy and climate resilience considering urgency of action for tackling environmental degradation and climate crisis. Environmental democracy was first piloted in Georgia during 2021-2022 as a one-year experimental programme and upon successful implementation scaled up to a three-year programme, which is currently one of the flagship programmes in Georgia supported by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). Advancing Environmental Protection, Climate Change and Democratic Resilience in Georgia (the Programme) programme aims to deliver sustainable change in environmental protection and climate resilience through enhanced democratic governance in Georgia. It supports various national and local stakeholders in the delivery of the new climate change and other green-focused legislation, enhance the enabling environment in favour of low-carbon development alternatives and support exertion of positive
(constructive) pressure on governance stakeholders in favour of these outcomes. Accordingly, WFD intends to procure a multi-provider framework agreement to provide individual consultancy services to support WFD's capacity for effective technical support and advice for environmental protection, climate change and democratic governance related activities.

Such activities might for example include support in conducting thematic inquires, post-legislative scrutiny, developing knowledge products, planning and delivering knowledge-sharing sessions and trainings, developing policy papers and briefs, legislation, conducting research and studies.

Please refer to the tender document for full details, including how to apply.
