Call for Roster of vetted experts in
Democratic Governance

20 October 2011

 

The Democratic Governance Group in the UNDP Bureau for Development Policy (BDP) is building a roster of vetted experts, who can provide demand-driven advisory services, access to knowledge, and technical backstopping in response to demands from UNDP country offices, regional service centers and other offices.

The Democratic Governance Group is therefore soliciting applications from highly-qualified experts and experienced individuals (not firms) to be considered for inclusion in these new thematic Democratic Governance expert rosters. Depending on the thematic area of expertise, we are looking for a diverse group of people in terms of expertise, skills, language and seniority.

The calls for applications have been issued for 9 Democratic Governance thematic rosters. Interested experts should review the announcement for their area of expertise and apply only if they meet the minimum requirements as specified in the announcement.
