GGGI is supporting the Government of Angola with the delivery of a Green Climate Fund (GCF) project which includes an activity that will use GGGI’s Green Growth Performance Measurement framework and tools to contribute to the development of a National Green Growth Index that will inform climate action in the country.
The Green Growth Index is an important step for the country to measure the readiness to transition to a low-carbon and climate resilient model of growth. It will apply two complementary strategies to enhance its practical utility in policy decision-making: first, a stepwise scientific approach to apply the framework of the Green Growth Index in selecting green growth indicators and, second, a consultative process involving experts and stakeholders to assess the policy relevance of the indicators. The former involves rigorous research to understand the complexity and multidimensionality of green growth, while the latter entails consultations to understand the national and regional contexts that influence green growth policies.
For the purpose of implementation of the project, GGGI would like to recruit a local consultant for 80 days from October 2025 to January 2026.
Please note that the deadline is based on Korean Standard Time Zone (KST, UTC+9)
