1.Technical qualification evaluation criteria:
The total number of points allocated for the technical qualification component is 100 which will be later converted into 70 points out of total obtainable (technical and financial) score of 100 points. The technical qualification of the individual is evaluated based on following technical qualification evaluation criteria:
• Required degree and qualification (20 points).
• Relevant years of experience in resource mobilization, partnerships and strategy development or related field (30 points).

2.Financial/Price Proposal evaluation:
The financial proposal of only those applicants who meet the technical assessment threshold will be evaluated. The financial assessment will count as 30% of the total points. In this methodology, the maximum number of points assigned to the financial proposal is allocated to the lowest price proposal. All other price proposals receive points in inverse proportion.
The formula is as follows:
p = y (µ/z)
Where:
p = points for the financial proposal being evaluated
y = maximum number of points for the financial proposal
µ = price of the lowest priced proposal
z = price of the proposal being evaluated

UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender, nationality and culture. Individuals from minority groups, indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence.
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.
Background
The partnership between UNHCR and UNDP has been long-standing. UNDP and UNHCR have concluded two global cooperation agreements. The first one in 1987 and the second and current one in 1997. UNDP and UNHCR have been designated by the Secretary General in his decision no.2011/20 to provide technical expertise and support to the development of the strategy for durable solutions. In addition, UNHCR and UNDP have expanded the collaboration since the adoption of the Global Compact for Refugees by implementing a global joint-action plan and have specific country or regional-based cooperation agreements in operations where there are joint initiatives.
In May 2021, a UNDP-UNHCR joint-paper titled Partnership in Forced Displacement provides an overview of our current collaboration, now spanning over 30 countries and including areas such as local governance, rule of law, livelihoods, basic services and social cohesion. Other examples of recent cooperation include the joint Theory of Change - Responding to protracted displacement using the humanitarian-development-peace nexus approach, the “SDG Toolkit” for inclusion of displaced population in development planning (currently being piloted in 5 countries), and the regional collaborations in Central America, Horn of Africa and in and around Afghanistan. The joint-paper also sets out a forward-looking joint vision to build on the Joint Action Plan and elevate the partnership by launching a Global Joint Initiative, which will be structured around the pledges made by UNDP at the Global Refugee Forum. It is envisaged that this initiative will provide strategic focus to support the implementation of GRF pledges, whilst deepening our partnership at country, regional and global levels. In October 2021, UNDP and UNHCR reaffirmed further collaboration in Syria, Myanmar, Afghanistan and joint support on development solutions for refugees, IDPs and host communities.
With displacement reaching the highest level after the World War II, UNDP and UNHCR needs to better work together to go beyond crisis management, react to events and achieve transformational changes. To further strengthen the partnership, UNDP and UNHCR seek to develop a more focused joint action plan for the next four years, building on the past excellent collaborations and respective comparative advantages. The updated joint action plan should be demand-driven and realize concrete impacts with clear and measurable targets and benchmarks for priority areas including livelihoods, SDG integration, rules of law and local governance, prevention and peacebuilding, nature, environment and climate, and internal displacement. Joint research and knowledge management will also be strengthened through the establishment of a Joint Hub.
In such context, a programme analyst will support finalizing the specific content within the new joint action plan and detailed workplan to establish the building blocks of a UNDP-UNHCR Global Joint Initiative (including a mechanism for shared learning component and operational framework for country-level cooperation), as well as the implementation and stock-take of progress for the Global Joint Initiative.

• Support the implementation of the UNDP-UNHCR Global Joint initiative and conduct regular monitoring and progress stock-take for the ongoing cooperation;
• Produce additional products to support the launch, resource mobilization, implementation and progress reporting for UNDP-UNHCR Global Joint Initiative.
Under the direct supervision of the Senior Partnership Advisor, Division of Resilience and Solutions, UNHCR and the Recovery Solutions and Human Mobility Team of UNDP Crisis Bureau, the programme analyst will support elevating the partnership between UNHCR and UNDP by finalizing a joint action plan focusing on identified priority areas, which strengthen collaboration at the global and regional level and joint research and knowledge management. The joint action plan developed should set up clear objectives with a four-year timeframe and benchmarks for monitoring and reporting progress, and includes detailed plans to launch a Joint Hub, which is aimed to provide technical support. In delivering on the above objectives, the programme analyst is expected to conduct the following activities:
• Coordinate and support consultations and regular meetings among UNDP and UNHCR staff who engage in collaboration on each priority areas to concretize the joint action plan with Results and Resources Framework and report the progress;
