In Sudan, UNEP implements environmental governance, climate resilience, natural resource management and recovery programmes in partnership with national, state and local authorities, communities, civil society organizations and development partners.Dinder National Park is one of Sudan’s most important protected areas and supports significant biodiversity, wildlife habitats, seasonal wetlands, forests, rangelands and water systems. The park is also closely connected to the livelihoods and resource-use practices of communities in the surrounding areas of Sennar, Gedaref and Blue Nile states.Climate change, land degradation, agricultural expansion, population displacement, weak natural resource governance and increasing demand for land, water, forest products and grazing resources have placed considerable pressure on the park and its surrounding landscapes. These pressures have contributed to the degradation of wildlife habitats, blockage and sedimentation of mayas and seasonal water channels, loss of vegetation cover, soil erosion, expansion of cultivation into ecologically sensitive areas, unsustainable use of forest resources, human–wildlife interactions and conflicts among farmers, pastoralists, communities and park authorities.The conflict that began in April 2023 has further affected livelihoods, public infrastructure, markets, institutional capacities and access to natural resources. Population movements and the disruption of traditional livelihood systems may have changed settlement patterns, agricultural practices, livestock routes and patterns of dependence on the park and its surrounding natural resources.In September 2024, UNEP and the European Union signed an agreement to implement the project “Enhancing Food Security and Climate Resilience of Rural Communities in and around Dinder National Park.” The project aims to strengthen resilient livelihoods, improve natural resource governance, enhance climate resilience and reduce unsustainable pressure on Dinder National Park. <figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td>2. Objective:The objective of the consultancy is to undertake a rapid climate change vulnerability and environmental assessment in and around Dinder National Park to identify priority landscapes, communities and ecosystems for implementation of the Dinder Project.The consultancy will generate a geospatial evidence base and practical recommendations to support climate-resilient natural resource management, ecosystem restoration and sustainable livelihood interventions. </td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h4>Duties and responsibilities</h4><ul><li>Compile existing climate, environmental and socioeconomic information. </li><li>Develop the assessment methodology, workplan and field data collection tools. </li><li>Identify information gaps requiring field verification.</li><li>Analyse historical climate trends affecting Dinder (rainfall, drought, flooding and temperature).</li><li>Produce land use/land cover maps using recent satellite imagery.</li><li>Identify areas affected by land degradation, vegetation loss and agricultural encroachment.</li><li>Map water resources, mayas, seasonal streams and degraded ecosystems.</li><li>Identify climate-sensitive ecosystems and environmentally vulnerable areas.</li><li>Assess Exposure to Climate Hazards, Sensitivity of ecosystems and livelihoods , Adaptive capacity of communities, Climate-related natural resource pressures , Priority intervention areas </li><li>Develop Climate vulnerability maps , Ecosystem vulnerability maps , Community vulnerability profiles Intervention prioritization maps </li></ul><h4>Minimum Qualification, Skills and Experience Required</h4><figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td>ACADEMIC:</td></tr><tr><td> <ul><li>Post-graduate university degree in natural resources management, environmental science, agriculture, forestry, livestock, fisheries or any other related subjects. </li><li> A first-level university degree in combination with five additional years of qualifying experience may be accepted in lieu of the advanced university degree. </li></ul> </td></tr><tr><td>EXPERIENCE: <ul><li>5 years of relevant experience in climate change, environmental management,   natural resource management and improvement in livelihoods in post-conflict situations. </li><li>Sound understanding of natural resources management and climate change development in Sudan. </li><li>Great affinity with working experience in gender equality and women’s empowerment. </li><li>Experience with participatory climate change assessment and analysis and planning. </li><li>Good understanding of the economic, political and social context in Sudan is essential and in Sudan is desirable. </li><li>Results driven, ability to work under pressure and to meet strict deadlines. </li><li>Experience working with a variety of partners, with the objective of providing technical input/support.  </li><li>Excellent written and spoken communication skills required in both English and Arabic </li><li>Extensive experience of working in multidisciplinary teams. </li><li>Experience working in a conflict-affected environment is an asset. </li></ul> </td></tr></tbody></table></figure><figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td>LANGUAGE:</td></tr><tr><td><ul><li>Languages: Fluent writing and speak in Arabic and Professional level for English </li></ul></td></tr><tr><td>SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE &SKILLS:</td></tr><tr><td> <ul><li>Consistently approach work with energy and a positive, constructive attitude.</li><li>Timely response </li><li>Respond positively to feedback.</li><li>Good communication skills.</li></ul></td></tr></tbody></table></figure>

In disaster, in hardship, in more than 40 countries around the world, we partner to put bold solutions into action — helping people triumph over adversity and build stronger communities from within. Now, and for the future. PROGRAM SUMMARY Mercy Corps has been operational in Sudan since 2004 and currently leads humanitarian assistance and longer-term development efforts in conflict-affected South Darfur, Central Darfur, South Kordofan, North Kordofan, Kassala, Gedaref, and Khartoum States, supporting host communities, IDPs, returnees and refugees. Mercy Corps’ current areas of programming include food security and livelihoods, WASH, health, nutrition, peace building and protection, resilience, and Market Systems Development. The EU Youth programme is an European Commission-funded action implemented by Mercy Corps in consortium with the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) and local partners to support conflict- and displacement-affected young people aged 15–35 in nine target states (of which Mercy Corps will work in four (and potentially 5) states: South Darfur, Kassala, River Nile, and North and South Kordofans). The 42- month program started in January 2026, and will respond to Sudan’s protracted crisis by combining shortterm income opportunities with pathways to longer-term economic recovery, while strengthening protection and social cohesion for youth, especially young women, internally displaced persons (IDPs), and youth with disabilities. Through an integrated approach, the EU Youth programme will deliver labour-intensive, community-based public works and Cash for Work (CFW) activities that rehabilitate priority community assets and improve access to services and markets, alongside market-relevant training, entrepreneurship support, and linkages to employment and financial services (including VSLAs). All activities are designed using conflictand inclusive approaches and are informed by assessments, with protection mainstreaming and community safety measures embedded where feasible to support safe participation and reduce vulnerabilities. POSITION SUMMARY The Grants and Partnerships Coordinator will support the EU Youth programme (EMPOWER), leading the day-to-day management of the programme’s partnerships with five local implementing partner NGOs across the five target states.

The role will serve as the primary liaison between the programme and its five local partners, coordinating partner selection, due diligence, onboarding, agreement management, compliance monitoring, reporting, and close-out. He/she will work closely with the Grants & Partnerships Officer, programme, finance, subawards, and operations teams, as well as DRC counterparts, to ensure harmonized, accountable partnership management across all states and all activity areas.
