The project comprises four components with the following sub-components: (i) capacity building in good agricultural practices. This includes four sub-components: Formation and Strengthening of Farmer Organisations (FOs) and Cooperatives; Improving Farming Knowledge and Skills (GAP, CSA, nutrition-sensitive agriculture, ToT); Capacity-building in animal health: training 450 CAHWs and 200 livestock keepers; and Skills in fish post-harvest processing and handling. (ii) Investment Support for Improved Agricultural Production, with five sub-components comprising Access to food for IPC-3 households &mdash; seeds, small ruminants, poultry, NRM; Increasing availability of quality seeds (QDS and FLSE models); enhancing access to technology and mechanisation; supporting livestock production and animal health; and supporting fisheries production and post-harvest handling. (iii) Project Management and Technical Assistance, with two sub-components covering project management and coordination and technical assistance and capacity building for the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security and the Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries. (iv) Contingency Emergency Response (CERC), a zero-allocation rapid-response component enabling reallocation of uncommitted funds in the event of eligible natural disasters or emergencies.</p><p>The parent project (D8240), valued at US$ 62.5 million, was approved on 8 June 2021 and became effective on 22 September 2021. In November 2023, an Additional Financing (AF) - E2740, of US$30 million from the IDA Crisis Response Window and US$0.5 million from the Food Systems 2030 (FS2030) Trust Fund was approved, bringing the total project financing to US$93 million. The AF scaled up existing activities and introduced new interventions in animal health, fisheries post-harvest handling, and fuel-efficient stoves.

Early Childhood and Preschool Education&rdquo; and &ldquo;2. Reform of the &ldquo;New Ukrainian School&rdquo;&rdquo; stipulated in the Strategic Plan.</p><p>The LEARN objectives are: (i) to improve teaching and learning conditions; and (ii) to strengthen the management capacity of the education system. The total LEARN financing amounts to US$451 million provides a combination of the World Bank financing instruments: Program for Results (PforR) and Investment Project Financing (IPF).</p><p>The Program-for-Results (PforR) is implemented through a US$235 million loan provided by Bank resources, supported by loan enhancement from the Advancing Needed Credit Enhancement for Ukraine (ADVANCE Ukraine) Trust Fund, which is backed by the Government of Japan. This is formalized under the Loan Agreement between Ukraine and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development for the Program (LOAN No 9721-UA). An additional US$150 million is provided under the Special Program for Ukraine and Moldova Recovery (SPUR) of the International Development Association (IDA) Crisis Facility, as outlined in the Financing Agreement between Ukraine and the International Development Association for the Program (CREDIT No 7626-UA). On July 1, 2025, the Financing Agreement (Additional Financing: Lifting Education Access and Resilience in Times of Need in Ukraine Program) between Ukraine and the International Development Association (CREDIT No 7905-UA) was signed in the amount of US$4.9 million.</p><p>Furthermore, US$30 million in Investment Project Financing (IPF) is secured under the Grant Agreement between Ukraine and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the International Development Association, acting as the administrator of the Ukraine Relief, Recovery, Reconstruction, and Reform Multi-Donor Trust Fund (URTF GRANT No TF0C5794).

Starting from September 2026, 150 pilot academic lyceums will begin implementation of the new model of upper secondary education, ahead of the nationwide scale-up planned for 2027.</p><p>This phase of reform requires a structured and coherent communication component to ensure public understanding, reduce uncertainty, strengthen trust, and support implementation at scale. Public discussion around upper secondary education is often shaped by infrastructure concerns, misperceptions, or fragmented interpretations of reform decisions. At the same time, the reform is ultimately about improving student outcomes, expanding choice, and creating better pathways for further education and future careers.</p><p>To support the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine in communicating this transition, it is envisaged to contract a communication agency to design and implement a national communication campaign within the LEARN programme.</p><p><strong>2.

The Project is supported by the World Bank, Climate Investment Funds, Nordic Development Fund, Least Developed Countries Fund, Global Environment Facility and Scaling Climate Action by Lowering Emissions at a total investment of USD137m. The Project builds on the successful achievements and lessons of the Transforming Landscapes for Resilience and Development in Zambia Project (TRALARD) that began in 2019 and closed in December 2025. The TRALARD II Project will be implemented over a 5-year period (from January 2026 to December 2030), and will cover five provinces: Copperbelt, Luapula, Muchinga, Northern and Southern. The Project is being implemented in selected landscapes in 32 districts of the five target provinces. The Project is designed to combat landscape degradation, build community resilience to climate change shocks such as droughts and floods, and advance Zambia&rsquo;s 2030 goal of becoming a low-carbon, resource-efficient, and socially inclusive economy. The TRALARD II Project design is based on the Sustainable Land Management (SLM) approach which aims to adopt land use systems that, through appropriate management practices, enable land users to maximize the economic and social benefits from the land while maintaining or enhancing the ecological support functions of the land resources. The project field activities, especially under Component 2, will be implemented in landscapes that will be identified and adopted within the first semester of implementation. Implementation will be through a whole government approach through multi-sectoral implementing agencies and cross-boundary planning to maximize landscape-level impact. Community Forest Areas will be managed under Community Forest Management Groups (CFMGs) while the agricultural landscapes and rangelands will be managed sustainably through application of appropriate Nature-based Solutions (NbS) and Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) practices and technologies. The TRALARD II Project primary beneficiaries are vulnerable farmers and households from rural communities in the selected landscapes of the target districts. These beneficiaries rely heavily on agriculture and forest resources for their livelihoods and are particularly vulnerable to increased climate change impacts due to their low adaptive capacity and lack of coping mechanisms. The project will directly benefit vulnerable farmers and households through investments in extension services, small scale resilient infrastructures, community-based natural resource management, improved forest management practices, resilient livelihood activities, and increased resilience through the adoption of CSA practices, and the development of forest economies and NbS. 1 2.0. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Project Development Objective (PDO) of the TRALARD II is to enhance livelihood resilience and natural resource management in target areas in Zambia&#39;s Miombo ecoregion. The Project is organized around three components (3) with activities that are interconnected and mutually complementary and reinforcing. Each component and associated sub-components are briefly outlined below. Component 1: Selected priorities of the National Green Growth Strategy implemented Subcomponent 1.1 will implement a program of activities to promote sustainable landscape management, water resource management, and rural livelihoods by: a) Providing technical assistance and training to improve geographic information system informed land use planning that incorporates climate adaptation and sustainable landscape management in development plans including inter alia: (i) strengthening Integrated Development Plans at district level; and (ii) preparation of Integrated Ward Development Plans in target areas through participatory land zoning at village and zone levels. b) Enhancing MGEE&rsquo;s capacity to collect meteorological data and strengthen climate risk management through inter alia: (i) installation of a storm warning radar; (ii) installation of a lightening detection network; (iii) improving hydromet services at district level with focus on smallholder farmers including upgrading hydromet infrastructure and dissemination systems; and (iv) dissemination of relevant hydromet information and forecasts to farmers. c) Implementing selected National Green Growth Strategy interventions including inter alia: (i) preparation and implementation of Skills Development Plans for Green Jobs in Priority Sectors; (ii) installation of a data tracking and monitoring system for the implementation of the National Green Growth Strategy; (iii) carrying out a benchmarking study for the establishment and operationalization of the Zambia Climate Fund; and (iv) reviewing the curricular of the Technical Education, Vocational and Entrepreneurship Training Authority and the Ministry of Education. Subcomponent 1.2 will also carry out capacity and system building activities to develop an emission reductions program and facilitate access to carbon markets by: a) Developing key building blocks including inter alia: (i) the GHG emissions baseline; (ii) measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) processes; (iii) governance and implementation arrangements; (iv) benefit sharing; (v) social inclusion; (vi) environmental and social risk management tools and capacities; and (vii) coordination platforms. b) Carrying out a program of activities including inter alia: (i) supporting operationalization of MRV systems, credits issuance and readiness for commercial transactions; and (ii) conducting assessments of biodiversity and social premium pilots including leveraging existing biodiversity certification pilots in the region. c) Strengthening relevant carbon markets regulations and permitting for jurisdictional programs and related crediting methodologies, and provincial and national-level capacities by inter alia: (i) developing strategies to expand the jurisdictional emissions reduction program approach; and (ii) implementing a proactive public outreach and communications campaign. Component 2: Resilient livelihoods and sustainable landscape management supported Subcomponent 2.1 will support natural resources management by: 2 a) Providing support for land and watershed management in the rural domain including inter alia: (i) restoration of land in miombo ecosystems in target non-community forest areas using sustainable land management practices including land reclamation, replanting and assisted regeneration; (ii) implementation of improved agro-ecological farming methods and approaches including conservation, agroforestry and agro-silvo- pastoral practices; and (iii) adoption of integrated water and land management technologies and practices including rain water harvesting, soil conservation and integrated farming. b) Supporting the conservation and management of selected existing and new Community Forestry Management Areas through inter alia: (i) community engagement; (ii) promoting governance in Community Forest Management Groups and capacity building in human resources; (iii) land zoning, watershed planning, and natural resource and business planning; (iv) preparation and implementation of management plans; (v) habitat and natural resources management and monitoring; (vi) construction of small size management infrastructure; and (vii) development of proposals for community sub-projects for nature-based livelihood and value chain initiatives. Subcomponent 2.2 will support productive infrastructure, resilient, and nature-positive rural livelihoods by: a) Carrying out a program of activities to support: (i) infrastructure investments in watershed management; and (ii) small-scale resilient infrastructure investments for economic growth and welfare of adjacent communities including: (A) constructing small-scale and community-led irrigation schemes; (B) constructing solar-powered community irrigation schemes; (C) water harvesting; (D) building canals and weirs; (E) installing crossing points; and (F) dredging of transportation channels. b) Supporting agricultural and nature-based livelihood opportunities through a program of activities consisting of: (i) investments in community sub-projects through provision of Community Grants to eligible Beneficiaries to support diversified climate-resilient income generating activities and nature based solutions including inter alia: (i) agroforestry and value chains that increase income generation from sustainable uses of forest commodities; (ii) provision of: (A) community engagement and planning support; (B) training; and (C) extension services; and (iii) establishment of saving groups within the community subprojects. c) Introduction of sustainable landscape management and climate smart agriculture practices and technologies in rural areas through inter alia: (i) establishment of farmers&rsquo; field schools; (ii) allocation of demonstration plots ; (iii) provision of grants (&ldquo;Champion Farmer Grants&rdquo;) to eligible Champion Farmers to finance sub-projects; and (iv) provision of technical assistance and extension services focused on sustainable landscape management, climate smart agriculture practices and post-harvest technologies. Component 3. Project Management Component 3 will support effective implementation of project activities, including monitoring and evaluation (M&amp;E) and reporting. It will finance procurement, financial management, ESRM, preparation of annual work plans and audit reports, goods and services, workshops, and operational costs. It will cover documentation of good practices, lessons learned, and innovative solutions for integrating land management, forestry, ecosystem restoration, and economic development to inform future initiatives. Through this component, the project will improve coordination and collaboration among stakeholders, leading to more effective and efficient project implementation. The project will have enhanced knowledge sharing and 3 capacity building, resulting in better natural resource management and adaptive practices, and strengthened institutional and community capacities to manage natural resources sustainably. CONTEXT OF THIS CONSULTANCY A Manual whose primary target is district planning sub committees, Provincial Planning Sub Committees, PIUs, NPCU and Technical Service Providers is required to guide project staff and partners in the implementation of village-level project activities to enhance livelihood resilience and natural resource management in target areas in Zambia&#39;s Miombo ecoregion. A livelihood implementation facilitation manual was developed under TRALARD to present step by step methods of identifying, promoting and implementing livelihood activities that are sustainable for improved landscape management and reduction of deforestation and land degradation. It provides tools and guidelines for facilitators to help communities in identifying valuable livelihood options that are available, their respective value chains, ascertain their sustainability and profitability and associated market dynamics. During TRALARD II preparation, the Global Centre on Adaptation (GCA), prepared a new Manual, entitled Sub Project Manual Integrating People&rsquo;s Adaptation Planning in Zambia. The manual provides a step-by-step process to integrate Village Land Use Plans (VLUPs) into community-led adaptation processes aimed at enhancing climate resilience, land use planning, and sustainable natural resource management. The manual provides step by step on how to deploy community mobilization and stakeholder engagement to data collection, plan formulation, validation, and approval. The manual has been prepared by two NGOs (People&rsquo;s Process on Housing and Poverty in Zambia (PPHPZ) and WeForest Zambia (WFZ)), and staff of the GCA. The Manual is comprehensive and has been tested by the two NGOs in villages of the Copperbelt and Muchinga Province. Each of the two manuals have their strength and weaknesses implying that a hybrid new version is necessary in order to crystalize appropriate processes and procedures to implement the SLM approach at village/zone levels. The final Manual must ably guide the project team from the beginning of the engagement with communities to the full implementation of project activities.

Since its establishment, EHA has developed a network of 328 healthcare facilities, including 42 hospitals and 286 primary healthcare centers and units, delivered over 83 million cumulative health services, and reached nearly 6 million citizens. The second phase of the UHIS is being rolled out across Minya, Matrouh, Damietta, Kafr El-Sheikh, and North Sinai, with total coverage expected to exceed 18 million citizens upon completion. Nationwide rollout remains planned through 2032 in line with the phased implementation framework of the Universal Health Insurance Law.</p><p>As the system expands, ensuring financial sustainability, operational efficiency, and optimal utilization of clinical and non-clinical resources has become a strategic priority. EHA therefore seeks technical assistance, through a competitive procurement process, to design and support the initial operationalization of a Cost Efficiency and Sustainability Transformation Model that strengthens operational performance, managerial control, and financial stewardship across the provider network.</p><p>The assignment will deliver a comprehensive operational and financial gap assessment; identify major cost drivers, inefficiencies, productivity gaps, and resource leakages across healthcare facilities and central functions; review EHA&rsquo;s current costing sheets and costing-data structure; develop practical workforce, performance, and cost management models; and transfer technical know-how and operational tools to EHA teams through structured capacity building. The assignment will be implemented through two integrated pillars.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><table cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse; width:615px\"><tbody><tr><td style=\"background-color:#eaf1fb; height:138px; width:615px\"><ol><li><strong>A. </strong><strong>Enterprise Cost &amp; Care Transformation</strong></li></ol><p>Focus on optimising clinical service delivery to improve efficiency while&nbsp; enhancing quality of care. It will address the principal operational and cost drivers within clinical services through a structured assessment of clinical workflows, patient flow, service utilization, clinical productivity, and use of high-cost clinical resources. It will identify avoidable clinical expenditure, operational bottlenecks, non-value-added process steps, and resource leakage that affect throughput, productivity, and cost performance. It will also benchmark selected clinical performance domains against relevant good practice, strengthen managerial visibility of clinical cost drivers, review salary arrangements for the workforce in clinical areas in relation to performance, workload, productivity, and service delivery requirements, and assess revenue cycle management processes to improve financial control and reduce leakage. The expected output of Pillar A is a set of operational models, management tools, KPI frameworks, and phased implementation pathways to improve clinical workflow efficiency, service integration, patient throughput, workforce productivity, departmental accountability, and overall clinical cost efficiency.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>&nbsp;</p><table cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse; width:606px\"><tbody><tr><td style=\"background-color:#eaf1fb; height:4px; width:606px\"><ol><li><strong>B. </strong><strong>Sustainable Finance, Utilities Optimization.</strong></li></ol><p>Focus on improving the efficiency of administrative and support functions across healthcare facilities.

It will identify inefficiencies, duplication, weak controls, avoidable overhead, and process constraints that undermine administrative efficiency and operational resilience. The pillar will assess workforce planning and performance management across non-clinical functions, develop process optimization measures, and cost reduction strategies, and define practical actions to strengthen procurement efficiency, supply chain performance, logistics control, and resource sharing across facilities. Where directly relevant to non-clinical cost control and long-term resilience, the pillar will also incorporate selected sustainable finance, utilities optimization, resource-efficiency, and sustainability-reporting measures. The expected output of Pillar B is a set of operationally actionable recommendations, management tools, KPI frameworks, and phased implementation pathways to strengthen administrative efficiency, support-function effectiveness, workforce productivity, non-clinical cost control, and broader operational sustainability across the EHA network.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Across both pillars, the assignment shall combine structured gap assessment, root-cause analysis, evidence-based solution design, prioritized implementation planning, pilot support for selected interventions, integrated performance monitoring, and know-how transfer through capacity building of EHA teams.

Transformation Model that improves cost visibility, operational efficiency, workforce productivity, and institutional sustainability without compromising quality of care, patient safety, access, or continuity of service delivery.</p><p>Specific Objectives</p><ul><li>Conduct a comprehensive operational and financial diagnostic across relevant clinical and non-clinical functions in the selected implementation areas.</li><li>Cover EHA Headquarter and one selected governorate, including relevant branch structures, hospitals, and primary healthcare centers and units within the selected implementation area.</li><li>Identify major cost drivers, inefficiencies, productivity gaps, duplication, bottlenecks, weak controls, avoidable expenditure, and resource leakages across healthcare facilities and central functions.</li><li>Review EHA&rsquo;s current costing sheets, cost-allocation logic, cost pools, reporting logic, and related data structures to determine whether the current costing architecture is fit for managerial costing, benchmarking, and operational decision-making, and provide recommendations for required adjustments.</li><li>Benchmark central administrative costs at headquarters and branch level against hospital-level and primary care delivery costs to identify opportunities for administrative rationalization and stronger cost discipline.</li><li>Review selected clinical and non-clinical workforce deployment, productivity, performance-management arrangements, and relevant salary and incentive structures in clinical settings, and provide practical recommendations to strengthen performance-oriented workforce management.</li><li>Review revenue cycle management processes, including coding, billing, claims, collections, controls, and relevant data or system interfaces, and provide prioritized recommendations and practical tools to strengthen efficiency, discipline, and financial oversight.</li><li>Assess opportunities for integrating sustainable finance, green budgeting, utilities optimization, resource-efficiency measures, and sustainable supply-chain practices where these directly support non-clinical cost control and operational resilience.</li><li>Develop practical recommendations, KPI frameworks, dashboard specifications, prototype reporting templates, pilot support packages, and implementation roadmaps for
