Mid-Term Review (MTR) Team Leader

Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)

Organizational Setting The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) contributes to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda through the FAO Strategic Framework by supporting the transformation to MORE efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable agrifood systems, for better production, better nutrition, a better environment and a better life, leaving no one behind. FAO is a specialized agency of the UN that leads international efforts to defeat hunger. FAO's goal is to achieve food security for all and ensure that people have regular access to enough high-quality food to lead active, healthy lives. With 195 Members (194 countries and the European Union), FAO works in over 130 countries worldwide. FAO Country Offices, working under overall corporate guidance and in line with the Strategic Framework, offer policy advice and support to countries in the mandated areas of FAO, facilitated through partnerships, resources and an active country programme to provide technical assistance, develop capacities and deliver core services while fully observing international standards of accountability to establish leadership and strengthen impact at the country level. The offices deliver on the programmatic priorities of each country as agreed in their respective Country Programming Frameworks (CPFs) aligned to the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) and ensure effective and efficient operations with adequate human and financial resources. Specifically, FAO Country Offices: (i) advocate, inform and support policies and investments in the areas of FAO’s mandate; (i) provide technical assistance and deliver core services; (iii) assist and catalyse partnership and resource mobilization activities to support agrifood systems transformation; (iv) position FAO as the specialized/authoritative technical agency in food and agriculture and agrifood systems transformation; and (v) ensure risk-smart and accountable operations and management. FAO is one of the lead Implementing Agencies of the Global Environment Facility (GEF), with a portfolio of almost 150 active projects funded by the facility, in all regions. All GEF-funded full-size projects must undergo a mid-term review (MTR) under the GEF evaluation policy. The FAO Guide for planning and conducting mid-term reviews provides corporate guidance on planning, formulating, and conducting MTRs for projects and programmes implemented by FAO that have received grant financing from the GEF Trust Fund. The GEF-funded project “Enhancing biodiversity, maintaining ecosystem flows, enhancing carbon stocks through sustainable land management, and the restoration of degraded forestlands (FSP)” is being implemented by the FAO Office Philippines and executed via the Operational Partner Implementation Modality (OPIM) with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources through the Forest Management Bureau. This project seeks to provide multiple, integrated environmental, social, and economic benefits through cost-effective and sustainable restoration of degraded forests and landscapes. The project is at the mid-point of its planned implementation duration and is now required to conduct MTR. Reporting Lines The MTR Team Leader will report to the FAO GEF Coordination Unit Monitoring and Reporting Officer in coordination with the FAO MTR Manager.
