Job Description CALL FOR TENDERS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LANDSCAPE ACTION PLAN and sustainability plan FOR THE SUI RIVER LANDSCAPE IN GHANA.
The Rainforest Alliance is looking for a consultant(s)/firm to engage stakeholders in the Development of a Landscape Action plan and a sustainability plan for the Sui River Landscape in the Western North region of Ghana Summary of Information
The Rainforest Alliance is an international non-profit organization that works at the intersection of business, agriculture, and forestry to make responsible business the new normal. We are building an alliance to protect forests, improve the livelihoods of farmers and forest communities, promote their human rights, and help them mitigate and adapt to the climate crisis. We envision a world where people and nature thrive in harmony. We strive to make responsible business the new normal through our certification program, tailored supply chain services, landscaping and community work, and advocacy. For more information, please visit http://www.rainforest-alliance.org/about PURPOSE OF THE CALL FOR TENDER The Rainforest Alliance together with key partners facilitated the establishment of two Landscape Management Boards (LMB) in 2017 to govern the natural resources in the Sefwi Area. The LMBs was formed through a democratic participatory process to be a representative body, which enables communities and key stakeholders to participate in decision making processes to manage their natural resources. The purpose of the LMB is to ensure that the livelihoods of producers, foresters, workers and communities within the landscape are improved, forest reserves protected, biodiversity conserved, and cocoa-forest landscape is governed in a sustainable way while businesses thrive in an enabling environment. A Landscape Action Plan (LAP) was developed in August of 2018 by all partners within the landscape to formalize strategies on how stakeholders within the LMB will accomplish their goals. The LAP has guided annual planning and activities on the Landscape. However, since its development, the landscape has evolved with several changes occurring, which has necessitated a review of the current LAP. Additionally, RA established a new Landscape Management Board (LMB) in the Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai Municipal Area. The new LMB also requires a Landscape Action Plan to guide the actions of the governance structure. Further to this, RA together with partners has worked with the three LMBs to implement an EU-funded project known as the Landscape and Environmental Agility across Nation project also known as the LEAN action. The LEAN project started in 2020 and is due to end in 2024. The project has an objective to directly contribute to the national efforts of conserving biodiversity, improving livelihoods of smallholder farmers, increasing climate change resilience and reducing emissions from land use changes. With the project nearing completion, a sustainability plan is required to provide strategies which ensure continuity of action to make impact in the Sui River Landscape after the project's exit. Rainforest Alliance is therefore seeking a consultant to review the existing Landscape Action Plan and develop a comprehensive LAP new LMB and also develop a sustainability plan for the Sui River Landscape. Specific Objectives The objectives for this consultancy are as follows:
