What the buyer is looking for

As part of its ongoing efforts to pursue its sustainable development goals and achieve the ambitions set out by the Government in its vision for 2035, Cameroon adopted in 2020, to implement the second phase of its vision covering the period 2020-2030, a policy document entitled the National Development Strategy 2020-2030 (SND30). During this phase, the Government intends to bring about the structural transformation of the economy through industrialisation. However, achieving these objectives will require well-structured measures designed to minimise the impact on the environment, particularly in light of the growing momentum of environmental protection initiatives promoted within the framework of the various Conferences of the Parties on climate change (COP), the most recent of which (COP 31) was held in Recife, Brazil, from 10. - 21.

Show full description

… Sustainable Development Goals, Cameroon has joined the Central African Forest Initiative (CAFI), which aims to recognise and preserve the value of the region"s forests in order to mitigate climate change and reduce poverty. More specifically, the long-term objective of the Cameroon-CAFI partnership is to facilitate the acceleration of economic development by promoting the application of the principle of a "green economy" through which Cameroonian value chains are made competitive and meet the demands of international, national and sub-regional markets, whilst Cameroon ensures food security and reduces the impact of the development of these sectors on deforestation and forest degradation. This is in line with the principles set out in the SND30 and defined in the Letter of Intent (LOI) signed between Cameroon and CAFI in October 2024 with a view to realising the ambitions outlined in the sectoral strategies and will underpin the success of the future partnership. In order to facilitate the consolidation and implementation of the Letter of Intent signed for a long-term partnership between Cameroon and CAFI, the partners have decided to envisage a three-year pilot phase. Furthermore, it was decided to implement a sectoral and multi-level coordination project, which will also oversee the portfolio management and coordination of three technical projects funded by CAFI. Its aim will be to strengthen the capacities of national technical bodies for enhanced and inclusive cross-sectoral coordination, and for strategic and spatial planning, in order to move towards a green economy. This coordination aims to build consensus on the planning tools to be developed, the reforms to be implemented and the innovative financing mechanisms for the development of the green economy, which will help to increase the mobilisation and alignment of interventions and funding from the public and private sectors, both national and international. · As part of the overall PCIM project, the contractor will focus on 2 work packages - Work Package 1 (Output 2): Support to Cameroon"s National Research and Innovation System (SNRI) and coordination/harmonization of geographic data across ministries to provide coherent land-use and deforestation driver information. - Work Package 2 (Output 3): Preparation of the next CAFI-Cameroon phase via a project pipeline. Work Package 1 (Output 2) Activity 2.1.3: Support to a National Research and Innovation System (SNRI) - Purpose: Establish and develop a Cameroonian SNRI, supporting the National Strategy SND30, strengthen institutional conditions and the uptake of research and innovation. - Contractor tasks: close cooperation and coordination with the Ministry of Economy, Planning and Regional Development (MINEPAT) and the Ministry of Scientific Research and Innovation (MINRESI); Conduct a situational analysis/diagnosis of the SNRI; Develop an extended SNRI concept (actors, methods, processes, roles/mandates); Operationalize a permanent consultation framework (e.g., regulatory texts, documentation research); Identify innovative R&D projects (through c
