With the adoption of the SDGs and Agenda 2030 in 2015, the UN System has been supporting countries in the establishment of innovative financing mechanisms in support of achieving the SDGs. Under the UN’s SDG Joint Programme in Egypt, a number of UN Agencies are contributing towards advancing the Government of Egypt’s planning and budgeting systems around the SDGs.
Recent years have seen an increase in the issuance of sovereign bonds tackling development issues, often referred to in the UN system as SDG bonds, with the more common sovereign issuance being Green Bonds. In a number of countries - Mexico, Uzbekistan, Fiji, Indonesia and Benin as examples - have developed SDG Capital Markets/Bond Frameworks, in part through the support of UNDP. In a number of countries world-wide, including Egypt, UN Women is working to advance the issuances of sovereign Gender Bonds. In Egypt, UN Women is working with the Ministry of Finance and he National Council for Women in advancing gender0responsive budgeting systems; and in exploring the possibility of the country issuing the world’s first sovereign Gender Bond. Globally and regionally, UNEP-FI has developed methodologies for financing in support of climate change and action which are increasingly used by public and private financial institutions. UNICEF contributes globally to countries enhancing their monitoring of national budgets against specific SDG targets.
As part of the government of Egypt’s on-going vision of sustainable development, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Planning are seeking to develop a SDG Capital markets Financing Framework (further in the document referred to as “SDG Bonds Framework”) under which innovative financing instruments such as sovereign bonds and Sukuk issuance are rolled out in support of key SDGs, including but not limited to Green Bonds, Gender Bonds, and “Blue” Bonds.
In coordination with the UN Resident Coordinator’s Office, UN Women and UNDP in cooperation with key UN Agencies will together support the Government of Egypt in developing its first SDG Framework.
On behalf of the UN System, UN Women co-leading with UNDP, will contract a senior expert consultant to work with the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Planning in developing the “SDG Bonds Framework”. UN Women’s support of this work is carried out under the UN Women/UNIDO Joint Programme on Women’s Economic Empowerment, financed by Global Affairs Canada.
**Objective of the Assignment**:
Under the oversight of the UN Women and UNDP Country Representatives and working closely with the Ministries of Finance and Planning and participating UN Agencies, the senior expert consultant will provide the Government and the UN with strategic advice and technical inputs on the development of the country first SDG Bonds Framework.
The Senior Expert Consultant will be responsible for the following:
- Provision of technical advice on the scope and substantive focus of the SDG Bonds Framework, with a view to targeting those components of integrated local development, human development, adaptation to climate change, water and gender equality which face considerable bottlenecks in realizing national policies.
- Facilitate Government of Egypt’s interface and contributions with UN experts, international platforms, and best practices in support sustainable development financing frameworks.
- Provision of coordination, convening, documentation and drafting support to the Government in the development of the Framework that aligns with Egypt’s priorities, strategic documents, and impact measurements systems.
**Duties and Responsibilities**:
The Senior Expert Consultant will be responsible for the following, in partnership with the Government of Egypt and the UN:
- Advise and contribute to the process of development and drafting of the focus and scope of the SDG Bonds Framework for Egypt, including overview of use of proceeds, process for setting criteria for selection and evaluation of projects and programs in support of issuance, management of proceeds and reporting of impact. Align the SDG Bonds Framework with the country’s vision, strategy, and targets (Egypt SDS 2030 and others), and existing measurement systems.
- Propose sequencing of action towards SDG Bonds issuance.
- Identify capacity and system needs of government on the SDG Bonds Framework regarding both the pre and post issuance of the Bonds.
