TERMS OF REFERENCE:

Household Integrated Green Growth Interventions (HIGGI)

1. Introduction

Ethiopia and Uganda both have recently developed national Green Growth strategies. In Ethiopia, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is working with multi-sectoral stakeholders ranging from the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Finance and Economic Development, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Trade, Ministry of Urban Development and Construction, and Ministry of Water and Energy to Ethiopia’s Ministerial Steering Committee on Climate-Resilient Green Economy Initiative to support the implementation of the climate resilient green economy strategy at macro level. UNDP in Uganda has also supported the National Planning Authority to develop the Uganda Green Growth Strategy in partnership with the Ministry of Finance Planning and Economic Development, Climate Change Department, the Ministry of Water and Environment, Ministry of Gender Labour and Social Development, Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries, Ministry of Tourism, Wildlife and Antiquities, Ministry of Works and Transport, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development, National Environment Management Authority, National Forestry Authority, and the Global Green Growth Institute.

While strategies have been developed at macro level in both countries, there is a lot to be done at micro level especially at household and community level in terms of developing household or community integrated green growth approaches and practices that support and empower families to carry out climate friendly activities while building sustainable, resilient livelihood, and strengthening quality child care and protection. SOS CV can position itself as an expert in promoting green economy activities at the community and household level through the family development plan approach, with the objective of protecting and providing for children in two ways:

• Improving the economic status of communities and families now, so that they can better support children, cover their needs and protect them from exploitation and other forms of VAC related to poverty; and

• Ensuring that the natural environment in vulnerable communities is protected, so that children, in the future, will continue to benefit from a healthy environment and will be able to continue to use natural resources in support of their livelihoods.

  The SOS Green Growth approach should be supported with documentation of Green Growth good practices at household and community level. Knowledge and learning in the five relevant Green Growth areas - food security and nutritious vegetable gardening, household waste management and recycling, afforestation – indigenous and fruit tree planting around home and communities, source of energy for light and cooking, and clean water harvesting and sanitation – should be documented, and shared through community dialogues and exchange visits. Household should be assessed during the Family Development Planning (FDP) process on how there are performing with regards to the five Green Growth components, and relevant interventions integrated into the FDP, which is periodically revisited by the SOS CV and partner teams together with the family to assess how they are progressing towards Green Growth targets. A SOS Household Integrated Green Growth Intervention Guidance note to be developed by selected consultants will guide SOS staff, families, community members and partners on how to support the implementation of Green Growth activities.

• Objective of the upcoming Green growth project**

The project aims at contributing to this process by investing in empowering vulnerable families and youth to acquire green skills and resources to launch green enterprises, take-up green jobs, and to participate in community and district decision-making related to environmental and natural resource management and sustainable, green economic development, and by contributing to strengthening the capacities of local governance structures – including local/district authorities, private sector, and civil society actors – to contribute to the implementation of governmental policies, while providing an enabling environment for green enterprises through knowledge provision and participatory, inclusive decision-making.
