Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbHEschbornCameroon possesses an exceptional forest heritage, with nearly 19 million hectares of dense rainforest covering almost 40 % of its territory. Located in the Congo Basin-the world's second-largest tropical forest after the Amazon-these forests are a major biodiversity reservoir and a critical global carbon sink. However, this ecological capital is under increasing pressure. Cameroon's annual deforestation rate is estimated at 0.6-1 %, corresponding to more than 100,000 hectares lost each year. Direct drivers include illegal logging, mining, infrastructure development, unplanned urbanisation and agricultural expansion, the latter accounting for about 60 % of total deforestation. In 2021, the Centre, South and Littoral regions alone represented around 61 % of national forest loss. These trends are reinforced by structural factors such as rapid population growth (expected to double by 2046), accelerating urbanisation, persistent rural poverty, weak land governance and limited planning capacity at local level. In response, Cameroon has committed to major international frameworks aimed at reducing deforestation and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, notably the Paris Agreement (COP21) and the Glasgow Forest Declaration (COP26). Nationally, land-use planning reforms-especially the Framework Law on Land Use Planning and its instruments (national, regional and local plans, including LLUSDP)-seek to establish integrated multi-level spatial planning. Yet implementation remains constrained by insufficient legal, technical and operational capacities, limiting effective coordination of development and forest conservation. Within this context, the GIZ-implemented module "Capacity Building in Land Use Planning," financed by CAFI and BMZ, aims to promote inclusive and sustainable spatial planning that reduces forest pressure while supporting balanced economic development. The module comprises five outputs, including strengthening the legal basis for the 2011 planning law, buildingShort-Term Expert (STE) Pool for Trade Advisory in the ECOWAS Region

Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbHEschborn1. Brief information about the project The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is implementing the project "Resilient Puna: Ecosystem-based adaptation for communities and sustainable high Andean landscapes in Peru". The project is financed by the German cooperation (BMZ), the Green Climate Fund (GCF) and the Canadian Cooperation (GAC), in addition to the counterpart of the Peruvian government. The project works with the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (MIDAGRI), Profonanpe (Peru's environmental fund), the National Service of Natural Areas Protected by the State (SERNANP) and The Mountain Institute (IdM). The "Resilient Puna" project contributes to restoring, conserving and better managing the ecosystem of the Peruvian puna. To this end, it promotes ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) measures, which serve to make agriculture, livestock and communities more resilient to climate change in the prioritized districts of the departments of Arequipa, Cusco, Puno, Lima (Yauyos) and Apurimac, and its promote their active and equitable participation in agricultural and livestock value chains. It also supports the establishment of a long-term financial mechanism for communities to restore wetlands, grasslands and water reservoirs. Finally, the project aims to integrate the EbA approach into public instruments of participatory territorial planning and the different programs supporting productivity of both public and private entities, also considering the mainstreaming of gender equity, intergenerational and intercultural approaches. The project activities are organized into three components: - Component 1: Puna ecosystems are better restored, conserved, and managed to support climate-resilient livelihoods, through the implementation of EbA measures. - Component 2: Public and private investments aligned and leveraged to scale EbA measures. - Component 3: Multilevel territorial governance for the incorporation of EbA measures. AccordingConsultancy framework agreement for formulation, appraisal and review of Danish development cooperation programmes and projects
Ministry of Foreign AffairsCopenhagenDeadline: Oct 02The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark (MFA) is in the process of streamlining the management of its development cooperation. Part of this effort concerns the simplification of the procurement process of key consultancy services relating to development cooperation. Consultancy contracts are currently procured individually by the case worker responsible for the programme or project. Case workers are MFA staff from MFA services at home in Copenhagen and abroad. In the procurement of individual contracts, they are responsible for the choice of procurement modality, the planning, preparation and management of the tender and contracting process. This process is often lengthy, and can have implications on programme and project timelines. Moreover, the fragmentation of the process makes it difficult to use the feedback from case workers on the fulfilment of the assignments. This makes it challenging to harvest learning from past performance and ensure a sustained quality of services. It is in this context that the MFA wishes to consolidate the procurement of consultancy services through a framework agreement with multiple contractors. The streamlining of the management of Danish development cooperation entailed a revision of the Danida – Aid Management Guidelines (https://amg.um.dk/). This foresees a delegation of key tasks to external consultants, primarily appraisals, and thereby an expected rise in the number of consultancy services to be requested. It is therefore an opportune time to seek a more streamlined procurement process of consultancy services. AMGs contain the policies, guidelines, and tools for the MFA’s development cooperation assistance. They cover different forms of Danish development cooperation modalities. The AMG’s Bilateral Guidelines (https://amg.um.dk/bilateral-cooperation/guidelines-for-programmes-projects-country-strategic-frameworks-and-hard-earmarked-multilat-support) and Financial Management Guidelines (https://amg.um.dk/bilateral-cooperation/financial-management) constitute the basic set of procedures for all Danish bilateral development cooperation. The guidelines outline the processes and requirements for the preparation, formulation, quality assurance, approval, implementation, completion and closure of Danish bilateral programmes and projects. The framework agreement is expected to solely cover bilateral development cooperation programmes and projects designed and implemented by Denmark. Therefore, the expected scope of work of consultancy services solely pertains to Official Development Aid (ODA) funds. The framework agreement is also expected to be divided into two lots. Under each lot, the MFA expects to conclude a framework agreement with between three to seven contractor to establish the terms governing contracts to be awarded during the term of the framework agreement, specifically the terms for award of contracts with/without reopening of competition amongst the contractors on the framework agreement. The expected lots reflect the thematic areas and priorities of Denmark’s Strategy for Development Cooperation: Lot 1: Climate change, environment, private sector development, enabling environment and financing. Lot 2: Governance, response to conflicts, forced displacement, irregular migration, health and education. Each lot is expected to require the provision of the following services pertaining to the design and implementation phases of bilateral development cooperation programmes, namely: Formulation of bilateral programmes and projects. This may include preparatory work in the formulation process if and as needed. Appraisal of the design of bilateral programmes and projects as a quality assurance milestone prior to approval. This includes external appraisals and early appraisals of larger or high-risk programmes/projects. Review of bilateral programmes and projects under implementation. This can span inception, midterm and technical reviews as part of the MFA unit’s monitoring and reporting cycle. The estimated values of the procurement and the lots are preliminary estimates.S4D Community Management and Dakar Forum 2026
