<p>Strengthening regional connectivity is increasingly being discussed among policy makers as a strategic pathway for enhancing resilience, accelerating economic integration and unlocking the development potential of the Arab region. The level of regional connectivity depends not only on infrastructure and cross-border flows, but also on the region's strategic assets, investment and financing ecosystems, and institutional readiness. The Arab region possesses substantial strategic assets , including natural (i.e., oil and gas reserves), physical (i.e., ports and maritime infrastructure), human (i.e., population and skill), financial (i.e., SWFs and capital markets), technological (i.e., AI and digital) and cultural (i.e., shared language, heritage sites). Yet these assets have not always translated into stronger regional connectivity. Understanding the factors that enable or constrain this transformation is therefore essential for designing effective regional policies and investment strategies. Although several international indices measure specific dimensions of connectivity such as logistics, maritime transport, innovation or digital readiness none provides an integrated assessment of regional connectivity by linking connectivity outcomes with the strategic assets, investment ecosystems and institutional conditions that underpin them. Nor do they examine how these factors collectively contribute to long-term regional prosperity. To address this gap, ESCWA proposes the Arab Regional Connectivity and Prosperity Framework (ARCPF). The Framework provides an integrated analytical approach for assessing regional connectivity and its key enablers and constraints to unlock the Arab region's prosperity potential. It examines how strategic regional assets, investment and financing ecosystems, and institutional readiness collectively shape regional connectivity, and how stronger connectivity contributes to greater resilience, deeper regional integration, and higher shared prosperity.</p><p>The consultancy is related to producing a comprehensive technical paper on the theme of regional connectivity and prosperity with two parts: (a) a conceptual framework with theoretical foundations, methodological validation of the index, its components, and indicators framework; (b) the empirical analysis for the region with reference to other global regions, based on the results of the index and the component indices, policy implications and recommendations.</p><p>Under the overall guidance of ESCWA, the consultant will undertake the following tasks:</p><ul><li>Develop and refine the conceptual framework for the Regional Connectivity and Prosperity Index, building on ESCWA's initial proposal and strengthening it through international literature, economic theory, empirical evidence and international best practice. The framework should clearly define the terminologies, the component indices and their linkages, and realistic data availability for a robust basis for the index.</li><li>Design an internationally credible methodological framework including indicator selection, normalization, weighting, aggregation, sensitivity analysis and validation approaches. Provide the documentation to ensure transparency, reproducibility and future updating of the framework.</li><li>Develop and empirically validate an analytical model that examines the relationships between regional connectivity, strategic assets (including culture), investments, institutional readiness, and prosperity.</li><li>Assess the relative contribution of each component within and across the components, identify major connectivity gaps, and analyse trends over time to support evidence-based policy recommendations.</li><li>Analyze and interpret the regional results by referencing them against other global regions, derive findings and policy implications for strengthening connectivity and prosperity in the Arab region context.</li><li>Assess the availability, quality, comparability and limitations of the underlying datasets, identify data gaps and propose practical approaches for addressing missing or inconsistent data.</li><li>Provide continuous technical guidance to the ESCWA team throughout the development process, including methodological choices, data compilation, validation, analytical interpretation and presentation of findings.</li><li>Participate in expert consultations and focus group discussions, respond to technical comments, incorporate relevant feedback from ESCWA and external experts, and document major methodological decisions made throughout the review process.</li></ul><p><strong>Desired Candidate Profile</strong></p><p>A PhD in economics or related field is required.

<p>VA No.: UNDP/LBN/VA26/131</p><p>Position Title: National Consultant - Two Medical Doctors Specialized in Psychiatry to Support the Commission of Reduction of Sentences</p><p>Duty Station: Home-based, with attendance at meetings at the Commission of Reduction of Sentences' headquarters and visits to prisons as required to assess inmates.</p><p>Duration: 4 months (without exceeding 5 working days per month)</p><p>Vacancy Date of Issue: 03 August 2026</p><p>Vacancy Closure Date: 10 August 2026</p><p>National or International consultancy: National consultancy</p><p>To review the full Terms of Reference (TOR), please follow link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sjbukae8e2kt50e6A5zZYeOT_-wktxH_/view?usp=drive_link</p><p>Background UNDP has been actively supporting efforts to alleviate prison overcrowding and enhance access to justice through various initiatives. In Lebanon, Law No. 463/2002 established a framework for sentence reduction and entrusted this task to the Sentence Reduction Commission. Each of the two sub-commissions consists of a judge appointed by the Minister of Justice, the head of the prison's central directorate, a medical doctor specialized in psychiatry, and a social worker, with both specialists designated by the Minister of Justice. The director of the relevant prison or facility serves as an ad hoc member, depending on the case under review. To address the increasing workload, the Minister of Justice also appointed an additional social worker to support both sub-commissions. However, the Commission's operations have been quasi-paralyzed for over two years due to a lack of support for the medical doctors and social workers, who are essential for providing the necessary assessments for each case. This has hindered the Commission's ability to fulfill its critical role in addressing prison overcrowding. In this context, and as part of its ongoing commitment to improving access to justice, UNDP seeks to recruit two (2) Medical Doctors specialized in psychiatry to support the Commission in processing the cases of prisoners seeking sentence reduction.</p><p>Scope of work, responsibilities and description of the proposed analytical work Under the overall guidance of the project's Chief Technical Advisor or Project Officer, and in close coordination with the Commission of Reduction of Sentences, the Medical Doctors will support the Commission across the different governorates, according to the Commission's geographic distribution of files, by assessing prisoners' medical condition before sentence-reduction decisions are issued.</p><p>To achieve this objective, the Consultants are expected to:</p><ul><li>Assess prisoners' files from a medical and psychiatric perspective.</li><li>Draft and submit scientific reports to the Commission to inform its sentence-reduction decisions.</li><li>Provide the necessary medical opinion regarding the reduction of a prisoner's sentence based on their medical and psychiatric condition.</li><li>Provide expert opinion during deliberations on the impact and relevance of mental-health factors in specific cases.</li><li>Collaborate with the Commission on any other required tasks.</li></ul><p>Expected outputs and deliverables The Consultants are expected to complete the tasks and activities described above and submit bi-monthly progress reports. Each Medical Doctor must assess a minimum of 20 cases every two months. The reports shall describe progress in assessing inmates' cases and provide disaggregation by type of case, gender, age, geographic location, and nationality.</p><p>Institutional arrangements</p><ul><li>The work is expected to start upon contract signature.</li><li>The Consultant will work under the overall guidance of the designated UNDP focal point, in close coordination with the Commission of Reduction of Sentences and its President.</li><li>The Consultant will rely on their own means of communication and transportation.

Any public mention or appearance related to the activity must acknowledge UNDP's ownership and be coordinated with and approved by UNDP.</li><li>In the event of any delay, the Consultant shall inform UNDP promptly so that decisions and remedial action may be taken. Delays affecting collaborative work or the timely delivery of outputs may lead to termination of the contract.</li><li>UNDP reserves the right to commission additional inputs, reviews, or revisions as needed to ensure the quality and relevance of the work.</li></ul><p>Duration of work The assigned duration for this consultancy is four (4) months, without exceeding five (5) working days per month.
