<p>Background and Context The Middle East and North Africa region is experiencing a period of profound disruption shaped by the latest war in the Middle East, wider regional escalation risks, and shifting geopolitical alignments, economic shocks, social fragility, and worsening climate and environmental pressures. These developments are unfolding in a region already marked by inequality, conflict vulnerability, fossil fuel dependency, water scarcity, food insecurity, energy insecurity, constrained civic space, and uneven climate resilience. The war and its broader regional repercussions are likely to reshape power relations, diplomacy, security priorities, governance systems, economic planning, public narratives, and social movements. The disruption also has direct and indirect climate and environmental consequences, including damage to ecosystems and infrastructure, pollution risks, reconstruction pressures, increased fossil fuel dependency, weakened environmental governance, and heightened vulnerability of communities already facing climate impacts. For Greenpeace MENA, this moment requires a strategic assessment of how geopolitical and economic changes intersect with climate justice, environmental protection, energy transition, civic space, and movement-building. The assessment should help Greenpeace MENA understand the implications for its campaigns, advocacy, partnerships, public positioning, narratives, risk management, and long-term strategic direction. It should also inform the development of Greenpeace MENA s updated Theory of Change, including revised assumptions, leverage points, risks, opportunities, and strategic choices.</p><p>Purpose The purpose of this consultancy is to provide Greenpeace MENA with a rigorous, conflict-sensitive and forward-looking strategic analysis of the latest Middle East war and wider regional disruption, with a focus on its geopolitical, economic, social, climate and environmental implications, and the consequences for Greenpeace MENA s campaigns, strategy, alliances, positioning and new Theory of Change.

<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles &amp; Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p><strong>Background</strong> ESCWA supports Arab countries in strengthening national and regional financing systems to accelerate progress toward the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. Through an integrated approach that combines policy dialogue, analytical research, capacity-building, and digital innovation, ESCWA assists member States in mobilizing and managing financing across key sources, including domestic public resources, private investment, international development cooperation, trade and investment flows, and sustainable debt management. This work is aligned with global commitments, including the Seville Commitment, which underscores the importance of strengthening accountability and governance in financing development, as well as the mandates to address financing leakages as a key enabler of financing sustainable development. (paragraphs 29 (a) &amp; (c), 28 (e), and 33 (a)). Central to this work is the conduct of detailed diagnostics of the financing for development landscape, analysing the various sources of financing available to address five major financing rifts that continue to impede sustainable development in the Arab region: financing insolvencies, financing inequalities, fiscal space constraints, funding shortfalls, and debt-financing overhangs. In response, ESCWA advances regional cooperation on domestic resource mobilization, integrated financing solutions, diversifying sources of revenues and addressing leakages related to illicit financial flows and investment distortions. These efforts are complemented by policy recommendations and practical tools to support governments in improving revenue mobilization and financing strategies. In parallel, ESCWA has developed a forward-looking digital financing ecosystem composed of analytical and AI-powered tools that enable governments assess financing gaps, improve spending efficiency, optimize public spending, address illicit financial flows, strengthen multiple aspects of their financing strategies, enhance policy targeting, accelerate progress towards the SDGs, and design integrated financing strategies aligned with national development priorities.

The Regional Office for West Asia delivers advisory services and capacity building support to countries to achieve environmental and sustainable development objectives. The UNEP Regional Office for West Asia (ROWA) provides technical cooperation and policy advice to countries in the region to help achieve their environmental goals and sustainable development priorities. Plastic pollution has emerged as one of the most pressing environmental challenges worldwide, posing significant risks to ecosystems, biodiversity, human health, and sustainable development. Single-use plastics (SUPs), including plastic bags, food packaging, disposable cutlery, straws, and beverage containers, represent a substantial share of plastic waste due to their short lifespan and limited recovery after use. The Kingdom of Bahrain has demonstrated a strong commitment to addressing plastic pollution through a range of regulatory and policy measures. Recent initiatives include restrictions on non-biodegradable plastic bags, limitations on small plastic beverage containers, and broader efforts to promote sustainable waste management and environmental protection. Nevertheless, SUPs continue to constitute a significant source of plastic pollution, particularly in terrestrial and marine environments. Recognizing the need to strengthen existing policy measures, the Supreme Council for Environment (SCE), in collaboration with UNEP ROWA, is undertaking a comprehensive assessment of Bahrain's policy and regulatory framework governing single-use plastics. The assessment will identify strengths, gaps, implementation challenges, and opportunities for improvement while drawing upon international good practices and lessons learned from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Arab region, and other jurisdictions. The assignment will culminate in the development of evidence-based policy recommendations and an implementation roadmap to reinforce Bahrain's transition towards a circular economy for plastics. UNEP seeks to recruit an International Expert on Plastic Pollution and Circular Economy to provide technical, analytical, drafting, and advisory provision for the assessment of Bahrain's policy and regulatory framework on single-use plastics, the review of international best practices, stakeholder consultations, and the development of evidence-based policy recommendations and an implementation roadmap, in close coordination with the SCE and under UNEP ROWA supervision. The objective of this assignment is to contribute to the work of UNEP ROWA in reviewing the current status of single-use plastics in Bahrain, assessing the effectiveness of the existing policy and regulatory framework, identifying policy and implementation gaps, benchmarking international and regional good practices, and developing a practical policy framework and implementation roadmap to reduce single-use plastics and advance Bahrain's transition towards a circular economy for plastics. The expert will provide technical, analytical, drafting, and advisory maintenance throughout the assignment. Duties and responsibilties: Under the direct supervision of the designated Programme Management Officer at UNEP ROWA, the selected consultant will carry-out, inter alia, the following duties and responsibilities for each of the four projects detailed previously: 2.a. Project Inception and Planning Prepare an inception report outlining the proposed methodology, workplan, stakeholder engagement approach, data requirements, and timeline for the assignment. Review all relevant background documents, policies, legislation, reports, and technical materials provided by UNEP and the SCE. Identify additional information and data requirements necessary to successfully implement the assignment. 2.b. Assessment of the Current Situation Conduct a comprehensive review of the current status of single-use plastics (SUPs) in Bahrain using available national and international literature, reports, statistics, and other relevant secondary data. Assess trends in the production, import, consumption, waste generation, collection, recycling, treatment, disposal, and environmental impacts of SUPs, where data are available.

In response, ESCWA advances regional cooperation on domestic resource mobilization, integrated financing solutions, diversifying sources of revenues and addressing leakages related to illicit financial flows and investment distortions. These efforts are complemented by policy recommendations and practical tools to support governments in improving revenue mobilization and financing strategies. In parallel, ESCWA has developed a forward-looking digital financing ecosystem composed of analytical and AI-powered tools that enable governments assess financing gaps, improve spending efficiency, optimize public spending, address illicit financial flows, strengthen multiple aspects of their financing strategies, enhance policy targeting, accelerate progress towards the SDGs, and design integrated financing strategies aligned with national development priorities. This ecosystem has received recognition at multiple institutional levels and has been endorsed under the Seville Platform of Action and recognized by DESA as a scalable, real-life application that can be adapted and replicated across countries and regions. Within this context, ESCWA seeks a consultant to provide support in the implementation of various FfD activities as detailed below.</p><p>Duties and Responsibilities</p><p>1- Map productive linkages across pilot country/countries production base and financing structure to identify sectoral interdependencies, financing bottlenecks, and opportunities for higher-value economic transformation.</p><p>2- Estimate latent financing-space linkages by combining prospective structural configurations, visualization tools, and empirical signals of capability-space adjacency to identify feasible pathways for economic diversification and financing mobilization for blended finance while addressing resource leakages.</p><p>3- Construct and align a high-dimensional proximity matrix across the production universe, integrating relevant product, sectoral, industrial, and financing classification systems to enable comparable mapping of productive and financing linkages, identify tax- and trade-based leakage channels, and detect unrealized or suboptimally realized productive potential.</p><p><br></p></div></section><section><p class="heading">Desired Candidate Profile</p><p class="paragraph">A master s degree or equivalent in economics, finance, econometrics, business analytics, or related field is required.

Through an integrated approach that combines policy dialogue, analytical research, capacity-building, and digital innovation, ESCWA assists member States in mobilizing and managing financing across key sources, including domestic public resources, private investment, international development cooperation, trade and investment flows, and sustainable debt management. This work is aligned with global commitments, including the Seville Commitment, which underscores the importance of strengthening accountability and governance in financing development, as well as the mandates to address financing leakages as a key enabler of financing sustainable development. (paragraphs 29 (a) &amp; (c), 28 (e), and 33 (a)). Central to this work is the conduct of detailed diagnostics of the financing for development landscape, analysing the various sources of financing available to address five major financing rifts that continue to impede sustainable development in the Arab region: financing insolvencies, financing inequalities, fiscal space constraints, funding shortfalls, and debt-financing overhangs. In response, ESCWA advances regional cooperation on domestic resource mobilization, integrated financing solutions, diversifying sources of revenues and addressing leakages related to illicit financial flows and investment distortions. These efforts are complemented by policy recommendations and practical tools to support governments in improving revenue mobilization and financing strategies. In parallel, ESCWA has developed a forward-looking digital financing ecosystem composed of analytical and AI-powered tools that enable governments assess financing gaps, improve spending efficiency, optimize public spending, address illicit financial flows, strengthen multiple aspects of their financing strategies, enhance policy targeting, accelerate progress towards the SDGs, and design integrated financing strategies aligned with national development priorities. This ecosystem has received recognition at multiple institutional levels and has been endorsed under the Seville Platform of Action and recognized by DESA as a scalable, real-life application that can be adapted and replicated across countries and regions. Within this context, ESCWA seeks a consultant to provide support in the implementation of various FfD activities as detailed below. Duties and Responsibilities 1- Map productive linkages across pilot country/countries’ production base and financing structure to identify sectoral interdependencies, financing bottlenecks, and opportunities for higher-value economic transformation. 2- Estimate latent financing-space linkages by combining prospective structural configurations, visualization tools, and empirical signals of capability-space adjacency to identify feasible pathways for economic diversification and financing mobilization for blended finance while addressing resource leakages. 3- Construct and align a high-dimensional proximity matrix across the production universe, integrating relevant product, sectoral, industrial, and financing classification systems to enable comparable mapping of productive and financing linkages, identify tax- and trade-based leakage channels, and detect unrealized or suboptimally realized productive potential. 4- Normalize and validate the matrix to ensure connectivity, consistency, and suitability for modelling and network diagnostics. 5- Develop a structural scoring framework to assess relative feasibility, productive accessibility, and strategic positioning of diversified commodity-linked financing opportunities, while identifying products and sectors exposed to illicit financial flow risks. 6- Design and implement a Python-based analytical framework to query, harmonize, and transform relevant investment datasets into a standardized panel, supporting downstream empirical analysis and the identification of potential anomalies in investment patterns. 7- Apply data-driven analytical methods to identify patterns, groupings and relationships across sectors and products based on selected structural and operational characteristics. 8- Integrate Product-level production indicators to assess economic trends, identify priority areas, and highlight sector-focused policy support. 9- Develop and apply econometric models to assess structural feasibility, between proximate products across inter-connected products and sectors. This includes: o Preparing panel dataset of products’ competitiveness and production indicators. o Integrating structural linkage and proximity matrices into the modelling framework. o Estimating econometric models to analyse the evolution of production and structural upgrading patterns. o Assessing productive feasibility and upgrading opportunities, across interconnected sectors and products. 10- Generate and assess alternative upgrading pathways based on econometric modelling results. 11- Other related tasks related to the deliverables below as requested by the Hiring Manager.<br> Qualifications/special skills<br>A master’s degree or equivalent in economics, finance, econometrics, business analytics, or related field is required.
