Blockchain can “revolutionize processes in various areas, from finance to trade and from government public services to humanitarian work,” with strong potential to accelerate SDG progress if aligned with national priorities . Blockchain introduces new systems of trust and exchange, enhancing transparency, accountability and efficiency in areas such as supply chains, financial inclusion, identity systems and aid delivery. It enables sustainable infrastructure investment by improving visibility of climate-related actions, aligning stakeholders and facilitating financing for low carbon development. Globally, blockchain is expected to drive profound digital transformation across economic systems, governance structures and international collaboration. Blockchain will reshape how “businesses, governments and societies interact,” particularly in trade facilitation, supply-chain transparency, digital identity and cross border financial systems. It could transform social interaction, public institutions and economic models, affecting countries’ ability to pursue sustainable development pathways and participate in global value chains. Regionally, its impact is closely tied to digital transformation agendas and governance reforms. It empowers the development of smart sustainable cities and digital economies, covering sectors such as energy, health, and transportation. Two widely cited cases illustrate the practical value of blockchain. First, Estonia represents a leading global example of blockchain-enabled digital government: the country uses blockchain to protect national data systems and ensure integrity across services such as healthcare, property registries and legal records, enabling secure, efficient and trusted e-Government services . Second, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) provides a prominent case supported by the World Economic Forum (WEF) . Through initiatives like the Dubai Blockchain Strategy and multiple public and private sector applications, blockchain has been deployed in areas such as trade facilitation, payments, health services and secure data exchange, supported by strong governance frameworks and multi stakeholder collaboration For Libya, developing a coherent blockchain policy is essential to capture these opportunities while managing risks. Integrating blockchain into developed systems could strengthen public administration, reduce corruption risks, and improve service delivery. This would contribute to inclusive and sustainable development rather than fragmented or high risk deployment. The General Information Authority (GIA) in Libya requested the technical assistance of ESCWA to develop the national blockchain policy. The objective of this consultancy is to provide an advisory service to assist ESCWA team in suggesting the national blockchain policy to the Authority. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the blockchain policy. To produce the draft policy, the consultant is requested to conduct, among others, the main following tasks: 1. Review the national digital documents and the existing policies and strategies in Libya related to digital transformation, innovation, digital technologies, and other related national development plans; 2. Review best regional and international best practices related to blockchain policies and frameworks (at least 2 selected regional and 2 international cases); 3. Identify main national stakeholders, hold, in coordination with GIA, interviews and meetings with the main national stakeholders and preparing minutes of each meeting/interview summarizing the discussed points, their remarks, observations and proposals; 4. Contribute to sectoral workshops to discuss needs and priorities, if needed; 5. Prepare the needed policy based on international and regional best practices, gap analysis, national needs (SWOT analysis); 6. Present the draft report in a national workshop or meeting (physically or remotely) and capture the main comments and findings of the discussions; 7. Update the draft proposal according to all received feedback and comments during the reviewing process by ESCWA and GIA. ESCWA promotes gender equality and integration of youth through its publications and therefore the consultant should pay attention, with the help of ESCWA staff, to gender considerations and youth dimension throughout the research work to ensure that the report gives equal attention to the needs of both men and women, as well as girls and boys.

The content of the generated document shall be the sole property of ESCWA.<br> Work Location<br>Remote<br> Expected duration<br>16 weeks<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>GENERAL SCOPE Open data is widely recognized as a foundational enabler of sustainable development because it improves evidence-based decision-making, transparency, and citizen participation. Timely, accessible, and shareable data supports human centered innovation, strengthens public service delivery, and enhances accountability in governance systems. In fact, open government data operationalizes transparency, a core principle of effective governance for achieving the 2030 Agenda, by making public sector information reusable for social and economic value creation. In this context, open data contributes directly to multiple SDGs, including institutional effectiveness (SDG 16), innovation (SDG 9), and partnerships (SDG 17) . Globally, open data is transforming digital economies and governance systems by enabling innovation, improving policy design, and supporting data-driven ecosystems. Open data enhances democratic engagement and stimulates innovation by allowing businesses and citizens to reuse government data for new services and insights. At the same time, ITU data shows that the rapid expansion of digital connectivity—with around 74% of the global population online in 2025—creates unprecedented opportunities for open data use, although gaps persist across regions . Regionally, particularly in developing and Arab countries, open data can help address structural challenges by improving coordination and reducing information asymmetries. However, disparities in infrastructure, governance maturity, and digital skills mean that the impact of open data varies significantly, requiring tailored policies and capacity-building interventions to unlock its full potential. One leading global example is the United Kingdom’s data.gov.uk platform, which releases thousands of datasets across sectors such as transport, health, and the economy, enabling businesses to build data-driven services and enhancing government transparency . This demonstrates that when supported by policy frameworks and stakeholder engagement, open data can generate tangible economic and governance benefits in both advanced and developing contexts. For Libya, adopting a comprehensive open data policy is particularly critical given the country’s challenges and limited availability of reliable data. An open data policy would help address these gaps by standardizing data collection and sharing, improving trust in public institutions, and enabling evidence-based reforms. The General Information Authority (GIA) in Libya requested the technical assistance of ESCWA to develop the national open data policy. The objective of this consultancy is to provide an advisory service to assist ESCWA team in suggesting the national open data policy to the GIA. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the open data policy.

The content of the generated document shall be the sole property of ESCWA.<br> Work Location<br>remote<br> Expected duration<br>16 weeks<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>I. GENERAL SCOPE The widespread adoption of information and communications technologies (ICTs) across public and private institutions has made the establishment of comprehensive cyber and data related legislation imperative. In the Arab region, many countries have made progress in developing cyber laws; however, the rapid evolution of digital services—such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), platform economies, and cross border data flows—continues to outpace existing legal frameworks. To fully harness the benefits of digital transformation while addressing risks related to privacy, security, and misuse of data, Arab countries are encouraged to develop and modernize their legislative frameworks to meet the demands of the digital age. At the global level, the UN promotes responsible, inclusive, and trustworthy use of digital and emerging technologies in support of sustainable development. In September 2024, world leaders adopted the Pact for the Future during the Summit of the Future, together with its annexes: the Global Digital Compact (GDC) and the Declaration on Future Generations. The GDC places strong emphasis on digital trust, effective digital governance, and the protection of human rights in the digital environment. Central to these objectives is the protection of personal data, which the GDC recognizes as a cornerstone of trust in digital systems and a prerequisite for people’s safe and meaningful participation in the digital economy. The UN ESCWA has a long standing role in supporting its member States in the development and reform of cyber legislation. In 2007, UN ESCWA published Models for Cyber Legislation in UN ESCWA Member Countries, which reviewed regional and international legal developments and proposed practical templates to assist countries in assessing and harmonizing national cyber laws. Through its technical cooperation program, UN ESCWA continues to support member States in strengthening legal, institutional, and regulatory capacities related to digital and emerging technologies, including data protection and regulatory oversight. Recently, the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology (MTIT) in Yemen has requested UN ESCWA’s advisory services to support the development of a personal data protection law aligned with international standards and regional best practices. Such a law would contribute to strengthening trust in digital services, protecting individuals’ rights, and supporting Yemen’s broader digital transformation efforts in line with global developments, including the principles set out in the GDC. In response, UN ESCWA is engaging a qualified legal consultant to provide specialized expertise in personal data protection, with specific attention to the Yemeni legal and institutional context. Yemen's ongoing conflict and fragile institutional environment require that the draft law include a realistic implementation sequencing recommendation, identifying which provisions can be operationalized in the near term and which require institutional prerequisites, such as the establishment of a data protection authority. The consultant shall draw on established international frameworks including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the OECD Guidelines on the Protection of Privacy and Transborder Flows of Personal Data (2013 revision), the Council of Europe Convention 108+, and the Arab League's draft model data protection law, selecting and adapting provisions appropriate to Yemen's legal, institutional, and developmental context. This consultancy is part of a coordinated package of three inter-related legal instruments being developed simultaneously for Yemen: Access to Information Law, Personal Data Protection Law, and an e-Transactions and Trust Services Law. The consultant shall be aware of this broader legislative package and shall flag, in the drafting notes annex, any provisions in the assigned law that intersect with or depend upon the other instruments, to ensure coherence across the three laws. The advisory services, including the scope of work and expected outputs, are detailed in these Terms of Reference. III. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the report on personal data protection law. To produce the draft report, the consultant is requested to conduct, among others, the main following tasks: 1. Benchmarking and Best Practices • Review current national laws related to digital and emerging technologies in Yemen; • Review best regional and international practices in personal data protection law covering at least 2 regional cases and 2 international cases, with justification for case selection provided in the report; 2.
