Background Office/Unit/Project Description The Office of Legal Services (OLS) is part of the Bureau for Management Services (BMS) and is the exclusive source of legal advice to the Administrator and all UNDP business units. The legal services provided by BMS/OLS guide organizational priority-setting and decision-making within UNDP's mission, as well as the overall framework of the Sustainable Development Goals and UNDP's Strategic Plan. BMS/OLS support the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS) with the development of relevant policy and legal instruments and agreements required for the implementation of UNDP projects and programmes. The BBPS Climate Hub is the arrowhead of UNDP's commitment to the “Climate Promise” that aims to support programming countries designing and implementing pledges under the Paris Agreement, including ambitious National Determined Contributions, with climate change mitigation and adaptation interventions fully embedded in the national development planning and budgetary processes. As a Green Climate Fund (GCF) Accredited Entity (AE), UNDP can assist interested countries in filling gaps towards securing eligibility, developing Funding Proposals (FPs), and implementing REDD+ Results-Based Payment (RBP) projects. The Climate, Forest, and Land pillar of BPPS´s Climate Hub hosts the team that is managing the REDD+ portfolio with the GCF, including RBP projects from the Pilot Programme, in close coordination with the Vertical Fund Programme, Support, Oversight, and Compliance Hub. The GCF Board meeting 40 th (B40), approved in Oct 2024 a new Policy to finance REDD+ RBPs. As of December 2024, 19 countries reported REDD+ results to the UNFCCC under the GCF eligible results period. These countries can complete eligibility in the immediate and short terms. Five of those countries have presented a formal request to UNDP to play the role of accredited entity for new RBPs projects. UNDP will utlize the Performance-Based Payment Agreement (PBPA) modality to achieve quick delivery at scale. Another important source of performance-based climate finance are the emerging carbon markets (including both, jurisictional/national Volunctary Carbon Markets - VCM schemmes, as well as cooperative approaches established under Aritcle 6 of the UNFCCC´s Paris Agreement). Recognizing the relevant role that carbon markets can play to contribute achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement, the need to ensure high integrity in carbon market transactions, and to respond to the demand of countries and financiers to participate in carbon markets, UNDP developed the High Integrity Carbon Markets initiative (HICM). Two offers under HICM (namely, playing the role of Financial Intermediary of carbon market transactions under the LEAF Coallition and facilitating transactions under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement) will benefit of using UNDP´s PBP instrument, as well as adjusting other instruments, e.g. Development Services Agreements (DSA), to formalize the institutional framework to operationalize the initiative. In this context, BMS/OLS, in close collaboration with BPPS´ Climate Hub, through the Climate, Forest, and Land (C&F) team, is seeking legal expert services to support BMS/OLS in the update and adjustment of the DSA and the PBPA templates and the review of related policies to make them fit for the implementation of performance-based climate finance projects/programmes. Scope of Work The Legal Specialist will support the Senior Legal Advisor, Head of the Programmes and Projects Team at BMS/OLS, in the following areas: Update the Performance Based Payment Agreement (PBPA) template to, among other things: Reflect policy changes since the issuance of the template; Ensure that donor conditionalities are properly reflected; Make them fit for the implementation of climate performance-based financing. Updating the PBPA template to separate one with working capital reimbursements (WCR) and the other without WCR; and Updating the annexes. Update the Development Services Agreement (DSA) template to, among other things: Reflect policy changes since the issuance of the template; and Make them fit for the implementation of climate performance-based financing, among others by preparing two updated DSA templates, one for the event in which the recipient and the financer of the services are the same entity and another for the event in which the financer of the services and the recipient are not the same entity. Review the policy changes proposed by BPPS to the PBP Policy, the DSA Policy and other relevant UNDP policies and the instruments, guidelines and procedures developed under such policies in order implement climate performance-based financing projects, including providing legal feedback, preparing mark-ups, drafting email advice, and participating in meetings. Liaise with the different internal departments in UNDP to obtain input and feedback to the templates and policies. Other support that the Senior Legal Advisor may require in connection with the matters covered in this TORs including preparing mark-ups, drafting email advice and participating in meetings. Institutional Arrangement The Legal Consultant will report to the Senior Legal Advisor at HQ/BMS/OLS and will work closely with BPPS. The payment approvals will be processed by the Climate and Forest budget holder after approval of the invoice by BMS/OLS.

Background Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core principles at UNDP: we value diversity as an expression of the multiplicity of nations and cultures where we operate, we foster inclusion as a way of ensuring all personnel are empowered to contribute to our mission, and we ensure equity and fairness in all our actions. Taking a ‘leave no one behind' approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations. People who identify as belonging to marginalized or excluded populations are strongly encouraged to apply. Learn more about working at UNDP including our values and inspiring stories. UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks. UNDP is the knowledge frontier organization for sustainable development in the UN Development System and serves as the integrator for collective action to realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UNDP's policy work carried out at HQ, Regional and Country Office levels offers a spectrum of deep local knowledge to cutting-edge global perspectives and advocacy. In this context, UNDP invests in its Global Policy Network (GPN), a network of field-based and global technical expertise across a wide range of knowledge domains and in support of the signature solutions and organizational capabilities envisioned in UNDP's Strategic Plan. Within the GPN, the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS) has the responsibility for developing all relevant policy and guidance to support the results of UNDP's Strategic Plan. BPPS staff provide technical advice to Country Offices, advocates for UNDP corporate messages, represent UNDP at multi-stakeholder fora including public-private, government and civil society dialogues, and engage in UN inter-agency coordination in specific thematic areas. UNDP's 2022-2025 Strategic Plan highlights our continued commitment to eradicating poverty, accompanying countries in their pathways towards the SDGs and working towards the Paris Agreement. As part of the Global Policy Network in the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support, UNDP's Nature, Climate Change, Energy, and Waste Hubs promote and scale up integrated whole-of-governance approaches and nature-based solutions that reduce poverty and inequalities, strengthen livelihoods and inclusive growth, mitigate conflict, forced migration and displacement, and promote more resilient governance systems that advance linked peace and security agendas. BPPS work with governments, civil society, and private sector partners to integrate nature, climate, energy and waste related concerns into national and sector planning and inclusive growth policies, support country obligations under Multilateral Environmental Agreements, and oversee the implementation of the UN's largest portfolio of in-country programming nature, climate change, energy, and waste. This multi-billion-dollar portfolio encompasses: • Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services including forests; • Sustainable Land Management and Desertification including food and commodity systems; • Water and Ocean Governance including SIDS; • Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation; • Sustainable Energy; • Extractive Industries; • Chemicals and Waste Management; • Environmental Governance and Green/Circular Economy; and SCP approaches. This work advances crosscutting themes on innovative finance, capacity development, human rights, gender equality, health, technology, South-South learning and digital transformation. UNDP has a growing portfolio of global projects implemented directly by UNDP Nature Hub. These projects aim to promote equitable, ethical, and sustainable stewardship of nature by advancing the leadership, participation, and empowerment of Indigenous Peoples, Local Communities, and Afro-Descendant Peoples (IPLCs and ADPs). The Nature Hub's initiatives are implemented in close collaboration with national partners and community-based organizations, focusing on rights-based approaches to conservation, biodiversity protection, and nature-based solutions. Recognizing that the full and effective engagement of Indigenous Peoples and local communities, who are at the frontline of the nature crisis, must be central to any nature market strategy, UNDP and Biodiversity Credit Alliance (BCA) established the Communities Advisory Panel, which has since evolved into the International Environmental Guardianship (IEG). Hosted by UNDP, IEG is a member-based body representing Indigenous Peoples, Local Communities and Afro-Descendant peoples. It plays a key role in shaping the biodiversity credit market in line with principles of justice, equity, respect for Indigenous rights and traditional knowledge, and the empowerment of communities to actively engage in nature-based solutions. The 8 Billion Hour Pledge is an innovative funding mechanism developed by the International Environmental Guardianship (IEG) to channel financing toward community-led nature projects. The Pledge promotes equitable distribution of funds across diverse regions and communities and aims to strengthen trust-based participation of IPLCs and ADPs in global conservation and restoration efforts. The mechanism is currently under internal consensus building, with plans for pilot transactions and a public launch by COP 17 in 2026.
