Background:

?

Forum Island Countries have identified the need for an increased emphasis on ‘basic education’, and have taken the initiative for the development of a single regional project in the area of basic education and which should complement and support national education strategies.

?

The objective of the project is to design an appropriate regional programme based that is consistent with basic education needs in Pacific ACP countries as identified in the Forum Education Action Plan approved by Education Ministers in May 2001. The proposed programme will address youth unemployment and take into account good governance issues. Stakeholders in the region have strongly expressed the view that Pacific cultures should be valued and incorporated where possible into future education programmes, especially those in the non-formal area.

?

The proposed programme must be complementary to national programmes, and should, therefore, identify areas that are best tackled at a regional rather than a national level.

?

The project design study will cover all fourteen Pacific ACP States. During the course of the study the consultant will visit all of these states, visiting government departments and non-state actors involved in the delivery of formal and informal education and training. Particular attention will be given to assessing the appropriateness and opportunity of involving CROP agencies, regional NSAs and other donor agencies in the project implementation.

?

The review will be undertaken by a Consulting Team comprising

?

·?????? a senior Educational Planner? with more than 20 years experience,

????? of which at least 5 years has been in developing countries.

·?????? a Social Development Expert, with non-formal education experience, and with a minimum of 15 years experience, of which at least 5 years has been in developing countries.

·?????? a Education Economist/Project design specialist with a minimum of 10 years experience,

????? of which at least 2 years has been in developing countries.

?

Collectively the team should have expertise in all of the following areas:

?

-??????? formal and non-formal education systems

-??????? basic education curriculum development

-??????? certification and standards

-??????? teacher training

-??????? good governance issues

-??????? project design using the logical framework approach

-??????? organisational structures and frameworks

-??????? financial and budgetary control of development projects

-??????? financial & Economic cost benefit analysis

-??????? environmental Impact Assessment

-??????? social/Gender Impact Assessment

-??????? Pacific Island country experience

-??????? EDF experience

-??????? Project management experience

?

Invasive Species Control Plan Strategist (ref: ISCP.02)

Workplace:?? Charles Darwin Research Station,

The Charles Darwin Foundation has been working for over 40 years for conservation of the biodiversity of the Galapagos Islands, where the Foundation’s headquarters and main operational base, the Charles Darwin Research Station, is located. With a staff of over 160 people, the CDRS has the resources to carry out research in a wide range of applied science, such as ex-situ breeding, ecological monitoring, fisheries management and more. Its close relationship with the Galapagos National Park Service is a model of cooperation between scientists and managers.

A 6 year, US$18.3M grant from the Global Environment Facility has been approved to carry out the Control of Invasive Species in the Galapagos Archipelago project. The project falls under the responsibility of the Ecuadorian Ministry of the Environment, and is managed by the United Nations Development Program. Under this project, a US$5.41M, 6 year subcontract has been signed with the Charles Darwin Foundation (CDF) to carry out certain elements of the work. As part of this sub-contract, $1.34M has been set aside, along with an additional $300k for infrastructure and equipment, to develop and apply the results of a permanent research program that aims to quantify and prevent negative introduced species (IS) effects on endemic and native species through the creation of predictive models of invasion and prescriptive models for the selection of control or eradication methodologies. Results from this work are to be fed into a Galapagos-wide Total Control Plan (TCP)1 which would help guide the IS control efforts of all institutions with a mandate to manage IS problems. Funding for work on IS will receive further support from the proceeds of a multi-million dollar trust fund, currently being established as part of the GEF project.

3. Manage for CDF the component of the GEF project dealing with IS research and prioritisation.

5. Lead the implementation, evaluation and refinement of the prioritisation system, the compilation of data required by the system, and training in its use for personnel of CDF, GNPS, the Ecuadorian Agricultural Health Service (SESA) and other relevant institutions.
6. Coordinate the development of an overall IS research strategy and plan, that responds to the results of the prioritisation and monitor its implementation. Similarly assist the Park to prepare an overall IS management strategy and plan.
