Intervention Manager: Leveraging Investment

Position Overview:

The Intervention Manager will lead ICIMOD’s work that aims to leverage and attract climate-resilient and green investment into the HKH. The role will require engaging with international funders, including the global climate and environment funds, regional and global finance institutions, multiple public and private-sector partners, including other knowledge partners working in this space.  The role should also look beyond traditional sources of finance, towards private investment, whether through innovative public-private mechanisms, capacity building, or other approaches or instruments. 

This role will require working across and capitalising on synergies with other areas of work within ICIMOD and with partners outside ICIMOD. It means leading what ICIMOD defines as the Intervention on Investment – part of which is funded under UK FCDO’s Himalayan Enabling Resilience Programme, funded under the high-profile Climate Action for a Resilient Asia (CARA) programme, which requires working across UNDP, as well as World Bank, ADB and the UK Met Office, who are also CARA partners.

Background

The Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region stretches 3,500km across Asia, spanning eight countries – Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan. Encompassing high-altitude mountain ranges, mid-hills, and plains, the zone is vital for the food, water and energy security of up to two billion people and is a habitat for countless irreplaceable species. It is also acutely fragile – and frontline to the impacts of the triple planetary crisis of climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss. The International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), based in Kathmandu, Nepal, is an international organisation established in 1983, that is working to make this critical region greener, more inclusive and climate resilient.
