Notice Title

UK Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions (UK PACT)

Notice Description

UK PACT (Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions) is a flexible technical assistance (TA) programme that is designed to support ODA-eligible countries to increase their future climate ambitions, reduce their emissions, and accelerate just transitions to clean growth. A key feature of UK PACT is that it aims to respond explicitly to partner government demand for capacity building interventions, and that it shares UK expertise (for example in areas such as climate legislation, green finance, and smart energy). UK PACT is part of the UK Government's International Climate Finance (ICF). Through this procurement FCDO sought a Delivery Partner (DP) to deliver the UK PACT programme. The DP will deliver and monitor the programme in close coordination with FCDO in the UK and in British Embassies (BEs) and High Commissions (BHCs).
