The objective of the services is to define an advocacy argumentation and campaign in order to promote actions in the drainage and sanitation sector in Phnom Penh. More specifically the consultancy assignment aims at: (i) providing a study on sanitation and drainage levels of development in Phnom Penh (causes, consequences, bottlenecks, opportunities, etc.), (ii) using these elements to build an advocacy campaign (definition of target groups, of relevant communication tools, etc.); (iii) implementing a first phase of institutional mobilisation to assess the receptiveness of the stakeholders and finalise the advocacy campaign as required. |
| Technical assistance to support reforms to the project for the production of drinking water through desalination and renewable energy (2017-2018) |
In the Republic of Djibouti, public water and electricity services are the prerogative of two public companies (ONEAD and EDD respectively). The critical situation of water resources for the capital led the EU to fund the PEPER project, whose main purpose is to produce drinking water through sea water desalination. Desalination is an energy intensive technology. A reform of the two institutions is necessary for the fulfilment of PEPER.
The general objective of the technical assistance provided by SOFRECO is to establish a review of the current situation of ONEAD and EDD (technical, strategic, organisational, accounting, financial and IT), and to support the measures endorsed by the Government in the overall framework of the reform of the management of public establishments and companies (EEP), in order to set up a stable institutional and regulatory framework for the water and energy sectors. |
| Efficiency of the FLEGT licensing scheme and effectiveness of the legality assurance system assessed through the services of an independent auditor (2017-2021) |
While the overall objective of the FLEGT Voluntary Partnership Agreement is to contribute to the strengthening and improvement of forest governance and sustainable natural resource management, and tackle climate change by reducing GHG emissions in Liberia, the specific objective of the Independent Auditor of the System (AIS) is to audit the Legality Verification System (LAS), identify gaps, assess the effectiveness of corrective measures and verify the use of licenses when entering the EU market.
The audit of the LAS must reassure operators and authorities that the FLEGT authorisations issued (result of the LAS) are in conformity with the commitments entered into under the VPA and give the FLEGT license to be issued by Liberia, the credibility on which the entire FLEGT system is based. |

| Independent audit of the FLEGT (Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade) system in the Republic of the Congo (2015-2019) |
While the general objective of the VPA (Voluntary Partnership Agreement) is to help build and improve forest governance and the sustainable management of natural resources in the Republic of the Congo (and thus fight climate change by reducing GHG emissions, and limit biodiversity loss), the specific objective of the assignment of the Independent Auditor of the System is to audit the legality assurance system (LAS), identify gaps therein, evaluate the efficiency of corrective measures, and check the use of licences upon entry into the EU market.
The audit of the LAS must reassure operators and authorities of the fact that the FLEGT licences issued (resulting from the LAS) comply with the commitments made under the VPA and give the FLEGT licences delivered by the Congo, the credibility on which the entire FLEGT system is based. |

Support in the development of the Intended Nationally Determined Contribution for submission to the UNFCCC (2015) |
The purpose of this assignment is to provide technical assistance to support the Government of Burundi in developing its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) for submission to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat by 1 October 2015. The INDCs put forward by countries will form a key input to the negotiations leading towards the 2015 Paris climate agreement.
The technical assistance will thus endeavour to support the Government of Burundi in determining its capacity to reduce GHG emissions, and its efforts and needs in terms of adapting to climate change, taking into account domestic and international processes as well as requirements for comprehensiveness, transparency and ambition as negotiated under the UNFCCC. |
| Strengthening of the institutions governing the mining sector (2015-2017) |
The general objective of the mines component of the PAGOS (project to support sector-based governance) is to improve the governance of the mining sector.
This project provides technical assistance to the Government of Gabon in order to enhance/upgrade the geology & resources information system, contribute to integration into the Kimberley process, and develop a set of maps (a geological and geotechnical map of the cities of Libreville and Owendo, a map of ecologically sensitive zones). Additional activities will contribute to the:
- preparation of the Metallogenic Atlas for Gabon;
- capacity building of the mineralogical laboratory. |
| Development of a rural sanitation strategy (2014-2015) |
