USAID Green Annamites - Call for Expressions of Interest

USAID Green Annamites - Call for Expressions of Interest

ECODIT LLC is implementing the USAID-funded Green Annamites Project in Quang Nam and Thua Thien-Hue provinces. The objective of the project is to assist Vietnam’s transition to climate-smart, low emission and resilient development that protects people, landscapes and biodiversity in Vietnam’s priority forested provinces.

ECODIT is seeking Expressions of Interest from individuals, companies and organizations who wish to receive announcements regarding future opportunities for partnering with ECODIT to contribute to the three tasks listed below:

1. Increase application of low emissions land use: conserve the existing carbon sink; stop emission from small scale deforestation and degradation, and unsustainable agricultural practices; and increase carbon sequestration from restoration of degraded landscapes.
2. Strengthen biodiversity conservation: mitigate threats to the globally significant biodiversity in central Vietnam, including poaching and activities that destroy habitats for wildlife and cause habitat fragmentation (e.g., deforestation, forest degradation, and conversion of natural forest into plantation).
3. Increase resilience for vulnerable communities: ensure that results of activities supported under the two other components are not affected by climate change impacts. Build resilience for vulnerable communities particularly in regards to their livelihoods.

Interested organizations, companies or individuals should send their Expression of Interest (EOI) no later than April 28, 2017 to: [email protected].

Please limit submissions only to the required documentation listed below. Additional documentation may be requested at a later date.

Required documentation for EOI:

• Organizations – complete the attached EOI Form.
• Individuals – submit CV.
