PREPARATION GRANT FOR LEBANON DIGITAL ACCELERATION PROJECT (P181954)
Cybersecurity Legal, Regulatory, and Institutional Framework
Assessment and Law Drafting
1. Background
Lebanon is facing a protracted, multidimensional crisis that has impaired state institutions and public service delivery. Fragmented digital systems, reliance on paper-based processes, and limited trust in electronic transactions continue to hinder efficiency, transparency, and accountability across the public and private sectors. These challenges are compounded by gaps in digital governance, incomplete regulatory activation, and limited institutional capacity to operationalize key digital enablers.
To address these issues, a strategic investment to modernize Lebanon’s public sector through digital transformation, stimulate private sector growth, and accelerate the development of a robust digital economy is under preparation with World Bank support. The Lebanon Digital Acceleration Project (the “Project”) will establish secure, scalable, and resilient digital infrastructure including cloud services, data platforms, and cybersecurity systems that are essential for attracting investment and fostering innovation. By strengthening digital ID, e-signature capabilities, and the legal framework for digital transactions, the Project will improve the ease of doing business and enable trusted, efficient engagement between the public and private sectors. In parallel, the Project will advance key regulatory reforms in telecom, data protection, cybersecurity, e-signature, artificial intelligence (AI) and other areas, while investing in Lebanon’s digital talent pool. Together, these measures will lay the foundation for a more competitive, dynamic, and inclusive economy.
The World Bank’s Grant Facility for Project Preparation (GFPP) has been extended to OMSAR to support Project preparation. The GFPP grant will be implemented by a Technical Unit (TU) housed within OMSAR.
An important enabler of secure digital transformation is the establishment of a comprehensive national cybersecurity governance and institutional framework to protect government systems, critical information infrastructure, digital services, and public data against cyber threats and risks. In Lebanon, there are ongoing efforts to establish a coherent national cybersecurity framework, including the development and strengthening of the necessary institutions and institutional arrangements, governance structures, and legal and operational mandates various laws, regulations, institutional mandates and the 2019 National Cybersecurity Strategy partially address aspects of cybersecurity.
In this context, a draft cybersecurity law and framework and accompanying texts and secondary instruments are being developed and circulated among stakeholders; consequently, a coherent consolidation and review to ensure the development of a modern, fit-for-purpose legal and institutional framework aligned with international good practices and adapted to Lebanon’s institutional and operational realities are needed, and hence this proposed assignment.
This assignment should be undertaken in a manner consistent with the applicable national cyber security governance framework and institutional mandates.

\nConsulting Services – Individual Consultant Selection
Project: Technical Assistance to the SAPP (RETRADE SAPP)
\nPosition: Project Specialist, PAU (Two Positions)
The Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) is a regional platform for coordinated power system planning, system operations, and cross-border electricity trading among its 12 member countries. Its operational hub, the SAPP Coordination Centre (SAPP CC) in Harare, oversees day-to-day market and system operations, as well as regional planning. The Project Advisory Unit (PAU) was established within the SAPP CC in 2015, with support from the World Bank, to coordinate and facilitate the development of selected regional energy projects from early-stage preparation through to bankability.
\nIn November 2025, the World Bank approved a grant for the Technical Assistance to the SAPP (the “Project”) , known as RETRADE SAPP. The Project forms part of the Regional Energy Transmission, Trade and Decarbonization in Southern Africa Multi-Phase Programmatic Approach (RETRADE-SA MPA) Program, which also finances several interconnector investments in the SAPP region.
\nWith the objective to increase and expand the regional electricity market in the SAPP, the Project provides technical assistance to SAPP and the Southern African Development Community’s (SADC) energy institutions—namely, the SADC Secretariat, the Regional Energy Regulators Association of Southern Africa (RERA), and the SADC Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (SACREEE)—through three components:
\n• Component 1 equips these regional institutions with technical experts, laying the foundation for the implementation of Components 2 and 3;
\n• Component 2 supports upstream preparation for selected regional energy projects and private sector mobilization, including the operationalization of the Regional Transmission Infrastructure Financing Facility (RTIFF); and
\n• Component 3 finances analytical work, stakeholder engagement, and capacity building activities essential for advancing regional energy infrastructure development and cross-border power trade.
\nWhile the PAU is funded by the Project to carry out its mandate of advancing the preparation of selected regional energy projects — focusing on cross-border transmission but also potentially including in-country backbone projects and other energy investments such as renewables and battery storage supporting regional trade — it also plays a central role in the overall implementation of the RETRADE SAPP Project.
\nSAPP now invites suitably qualified and experienced individuals (“Consultants”) to indicate their interest in providing the Services for the consultancy position of Project Specialist to be based at the SAPP CC Offices in Harare, Zimbabwe. Interested Consultants should provide information demonstrating that they have the required qualifications and relevant experience to perform the Services.
Key Responsibilities:
\n• Support the Programmes Manager in facilitating the identification and development of a prioritized pipeline of infrastructure projects, including cross-country and in-country transmission, renewable energy, and battery energy storage systems (BESS) projects to be supported by the PAU. This includes providing technical inputs on project readiness, technical viability, scoping, and sequencing.
\n• Advise the Programmes Manager on the identification of priority infrastructure projects for PAU support, including analysis of electricity flows across interconnectors and internal lines underpinning regional trade, taking into account market conditions, existing power purchase agreements, and the private sector project pipeline, to the extent information is available.
\n• Support the Programmes Manager in engagement with private sector developers and financiers to promote market interest in prepared infrastructure projects, including by providing technical inputs on engineering parameters.
\n• Provide technical inputs to project implementation plans, including activity sequencing, milestones, and resource requirements, ensuring alignment with donor and stakeholder requirements.
\n• Develop or review concept-level technical notes and design assumptions for transmission lines and substations, including route options, corridor constraints, switching schemes, transformer and reactor requirements, tower concepts, insulation levels, auxiliaries, earthing, and implementation risks.
\n• Review and validate calculations and studies such as sag-tension, ground clearances, right-of-way widths, foundation assumptions, climate/terrain loading criteria, power flow, stability, fault analyses, protection coordination, and insulation coordination, ensuring consistency with project parameters.
\n• Develop or review requirements and assumptions for protection and control schemes, relay specifications, substation automation, metering, SCADA/telecom interfaces, and commissioning/testing provisions, ensuring compliance with IEC standards and SAPP Operating Guidelines.
\n• Provide technical inputs on grid-connected renewable energy and BESS interconnections, including grid-code compliance, plant control, metering, SCADA interfaces, and review of integration studies (steady-state/dynamic simulations, fault ride-through, harmonics, reactive power, inverter specifications, ancillary services).
\n• Review BESS sizing, state-of-charge management, degradation models, and efficiency assumptions where relevant to feasibility studies.

Request for Expressions of Interest
\nConsulting Services – Individual Consultant Selection
Project: Technical Assistance to the SAPP (RETRADE SAPP)
\nPosition: Project Specialist, PAU (Two Positions)
The Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) is a regional platform for coordinated power system planning, system operations, and cross-border electricity trading among its 12 member countries. Its operational hub, the SAPP Coordination Centre (SAPP CC) in Harare, oversees day-to-day market and system operations, as well as regional planning. The Project Advisory Unit (PAU) was established within the SAPP CC in 2015, with support from the World Bank, to coordinate and facilitate the development of selected regional energy projects from early-stage preparation through to bankability.
\nIn November 2025, the World Bank approved a grant for the Technical Assistance to the SAPP (the “Project”) , known as RETRADE SAPP. The Project forms part of the Regional Energy Transmission, Trade and Decarbonization in Southern Africa Multi-Phase Programmatic Approach (RETRADE-SA MPA) Program, which also finances several interconnector investments in the SAPP region.
\nWith the objective to increase and expand the regional electricity market in the SAPP, the Project provides technical assistance to SAPP and the Southern African Development Community’s (SADC) energy institutions—namely, the SADC Secretariat, the Regional Energy Regulators Association of Southern Africa (RERA), and the SADC Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (SACREEE)—through three components:
\n• Component 1 equips these regional institutions with technical experts, laying the foundation for the implementation of Components 2 and 3;
\n• Component 2 supports upstream preparation for selected regional energy projects and private sector mobilization, including the operationalization of the Regional Transmission Infrastructure Financing Facility (RTIFF); and
\n• Component 3 finances analytical work, stakeholder engagement, and capacity building activities essential for advancing regional energy infrastructure development and cross-border power trade.
\nWhile the PAU is funded by the Project to carry out its mandate of advancing the preparation of selected regional energy projects — focusing on cross-border transmission but also potentially including in-country backbone projects and other energy investments such as renewables and battery storage supporting regional trade — it also plays a central role in the overall implementation of the RETRADE SAPP Project.
\nSAPP now invites suitably qualified and experienced individuals (“Consultants”) to indicate their interest in providing the Services for the consultancy position of Project Specialist to be based at the SAPP CC Offices in Harare, Zimbabwe. Interested Consultants should provide information demonstrating that they have the required qualifications and relevant experience to perform the Services.
Key Responsibilities:
\n• Support the Programmes Manager in facilitating the identification and development of a prioritized pipeline of infrastructure projects, including cross-country and in-country transmission, renewable energy, and battery energy storage systems (BESS) projects to be supported by the PAU. This includes providing technical inputs on project readiness, technical viability, scoping, and sequencing.
\n• Advise the Programmes Manager on the identification of priority infrastructure projects for PAU support, including analysis of electricity flows across interconnectors and internal lines underpinning regional trade, taking into account market conditions, existing power purchase agreements, and the private sector project pipeline, to the extent information is available.
\n• Support the Programmes Manager in engagement with private sector developers and financiers to promote market interest in prepared infrastructure projects, including by providing technical inputs on engineering parameters.
\n• Provide technical inputs to project implementation plans, including activity sequencing, milestones, and resource requirements, ensuring alignment with donor and stakeholder requirements.
\n• Develop or review concept-level technical notes and design assumptions for transmission lines and substations, including route options, corridor constraints, switching schemes, transformer and reactor requirements, tower concepts, insulation levels, auxiliaries, earthing, and implementation risks.
\n• Review and validate calculations and studies such as sag-tension, ground clearances, right-of-way widths, foundation assumptions, climate/terrain loading criteria, power flow, stability, fault analyses, protection coordination, and insulation coordination, ensuring consistency with project parameters.
\n• Develop or review requirements and assumptions for protection and control schemes, relay specifications, substation automation, metering, SCADA/telecom interfaces, and commissioning/testing provisions, ensuring compliance with IEC standards and SAPP Operating Guidelines.
\n• Provide technical inputs on grid-connected renewable energy and BESS interconnections, including grid-code compliance, plant control, metering, SCADA interfaces, and review of integration studies (steady-state/dynamic simulations, fault ride-through, harmonics, reactive power, inverter specifications, ancillary services).
\n• Review BESS sizing, state-of-charge management, degradation models, and efficiency assumptions where relevant to feasibility studies.
\n• Identify technical data gaps requiring additional inputs, surveys, or studies, and advise the PAU and relevant counterparts accordingly.

\n\nPREPARATION GRANT FOR LEBANON DIGITAL ACCELERATION PROJECT (P181954)
\n\nData Classification Policy
\n\nBackground
\n\nLebanon is facing a protracted, multidimensional crisis that has impaired state institutions and public service delivery. Weak digital foundations and enablers continue to undermine effective service provision and post-crisis recovery. For example, government data hosting remains fragmented, insecure, and unsustainable, while inadequate cybersecurity and data protection measures expose citizens’ personal data to significant risks. The absence of a robust digital ID system and trusted data-sharing mechanisms further impedes secure and efficient digital service delivery. In addition, the lack of a whole-of-economy architecture limits coordination among stakeholders, and the policy, legal, regulatory, and institutional frameworks for digital transformation remain underdeveloped.
\n\nTo address these issues, the Lebanon Digital Acceleration Project (the “Project”), supported by the World Bank, will establish secure, scalable, and resilient digital infrastructure including cloud services, data platforms, and cybersecurity systems that are essential for attracting investment and fostering innovation. By strengthening digital ID, e-signature capabilities, and the legal framework for digital transactions, the Project will improve the ease of doing business and enable trusted, efficient engagement between the public and private sectors. In parallel, the Project will advance key regulatory reforms in telecom, data protection, e-signature, and artificial intelligence (AI), while investing in Lebanon’s digital talent pool. Together, these measures will lay the foundation for a more competitive, dynamic, and inclusive economy.
\n\n\n\n
The World Bank’s Grant Facility for Project Preparation (GFPP) has been extended to OMSAR to support Project readiness. The GFPP grant is implemented by a Technical Unit (TU) housed within OMSAR.
\n\n\n\n
In an era where data plays a central role in economic growth, innovation, and governance, the Government of Lebanon recognizes the urgent need to establish a robust Data Classification Policy Framework. Currently, Lebanon lacks a standardized framework for classifying, handling, and protecting data leading to inefficiencies, regulatory uncertainty, and heightened security risks.
\n\n\n\n
Global trends show a surge in digital regulations aimed at promoting trust, safeguarding data, and enabling digital transformation. Countries with advanced data classification policies such as the UK, UAE, and Saudi Arabia demonstrate higher digital competitiveness and economic resilience.
\n\nLebanon’s policy aims to close existing legal and regulatory gaps and align with internationally recognized best practices and guidance issued by established international standard-setting bodies including the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and the European Union (EU), to ensure secure, interoperable, and trusted data governance across public and private sectors.
\n\nAssignment and Objectives
\n\nThis assignment aims to design and develop a comprehensive National Data Classification Policy Framework for Lebanon that provides a structured foundation for data classification and data handling requirements. The consultant undertaking the assignment (the Consultant) will lead a comprehensive policy framework development engagement, including the assessment of the current legal, institutional, and operational context, the development of a national Data Classification Policy for submission to the Council of Ministers (CoM), and the preparation of supporting technical frameworks, roles and responsibility structures, and guidance materials to enable future implementation by public sector entities, and shall be undertaken in alignment with and without prejudice to the applicable national institutional mandates governing digital transformation and data governance.

ASSIGNMENT TITLE: UNDERTAKE THE DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONALIZE THE AFRICAN UNION CLIMATE CHANGE AND RESILIENT DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AND ACTION PLAN (2022-2032), COMPREHENSIVE MONITORING, REPORTING AND LEARNING DASHBOARD (MRLD)
\n\n\n\n
Procurement Reference Number: ET-AUC-436715-CS-INDV
\n\n\n\n
The African Union Commission has received financing from the World Bank toward the Implementation of Regional Climate Resilience Project 2 (RCRP2) and intends to apply part of the proceeds for the selection of Consulting firm to undertake the development and operationalize the African Union Climate Change and Resilient Development strategy and action plan (2022-2032), comprehensive Monitoring, Reporting and Learning Dashboard (MRLD) to support the SEBE/AUC in the implementation of the project.
\n\n\n\n
\n\n
\n\n
The Regional Climate Resilience Program for Eastern and Southern Africa (RCRP) is a World Bank program where a regional multi-phase Series of Projects (SOP) are implemented to respond to the increasing frequency, intensity, and impact of climate shocks on people, livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecosystems. The main aim is strengthening the resilience of populations to climate-related shocks in Eastern and Southern Africa. The RCRP Series of Projects (SoP) allows for the tackling of common challenges amongst countries in the region while benefiting from a programmatic framework that will allow scalability (countries can join at different times) and economies of scale. The RCRP SOP aims to reduce people's vulnerability to climate shocks by making catalytic medium-to-large-scale investments in protective water infrastructure, watershed management, storage, and safety nets. The RCRP is expected to include at least three operations, overlapping in time, over a period of 10 years (2023 – 2032). The first project (US$ 382.4 million) (SOP-1) was approved by the World Bank Board on 24 May 2023, and includes 4 countries (Comoros, Madagascar, Mozambique, and South Sudan) and two regional organizations (Southern Africa Development Community, SADC, and Nile Basin Initiative, NBI).
\n\n\n\n
The second Operation under the SOP will finance investments in Malawi and strengthen capacity at the AUC, building on and complementing the foundations set by the RCRP SOP-1. Building on the structure of SOP-1, SOP-2 is designed to catalyze systems change across sectors to avoid the business-as-usual model of financing individual single-sectoral investments without built-in sustainability. SOP-2 is fully aligned with the African Union Climate Change and Resilient Development Strategy and Action Plan (2022-2032). The main goal of the Strategy is to provide a continental framework for collective action and enhanced cooperation in addressing climate change issues to improve livelihoods and well-being, promote adaptation capacity and achieve low-emission sustainable economic growth. The four main objectives of the Strategy are (i) strengthening the adaptive capacity of affected communities, (ii) pursuing equitable and transformative low-emission, climate-resilient development pathways, (iii) enhancing Africa’s capacity to mobilize resources, and (iv) enhancing inclusion, alignment, cooperation, and ownership of climate strategies, policies, programs, and plans.
\n\n\n\n
SOP-2 is also aligned with the Continental Africa Water Investment Program (AIP) and the Africa Regional Strategy for Disaster Risk Reduction and the Programme of Action for the implementation of Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015—2030 in Africa.
\n\n\n\n
The objectives of SOP-2 are to:
\n\n\n\n
The Regional Climate Resilience Program (SOP-2) is expected to enhance regional cooperation and collective actions by Member States in addressing climate change-related challenges. The program will follow a holistic and system-wide approach for sustainable resilience in the continent by covering the following aspects of climate resilience:
\n\n\n\n
The program will be implemented by the African Union Commission (AUC) with support from implementing partners over a period of three years.
\n\n\n\n
The RCRP SOP-2 comprises the following components:
\n\n\n\n
\n\n
The MRLD.
\n\nThe AU Climate Strategy was developed consultatively with all stakeholders (RECs, UN agencies, AU-MSs, civil society organizations, and development partners) in such a way that it compliments and draws heavily on the AU-MS climate change and development plans inter alia their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs), Continental and regional climate change initiatives and aligned with the AU’s Africa Agenda 2063 (The Africa We Want) as well as with Agenda 2030 SDGs.
\n\nThe cumulative impact of the AU Climate Change and Resilient Development Strategy depends on the AU-MS and RECs’ implementation of their climate and development strategies and other continental and regional climate change initiatives. If the AU-MSs implement their NDCs and NAPs effectively, it will also contribute to the AU continental climate change strategies implementation to be successful. There is an interdependence on the bottom-up implementation of the AU-MSs with their NDCs and NAPs and the top-down complimentary approach that the AU and RECs lend with their convening power and sharing of best practices/lessons learned.
\n\nMonitoring, reporting, and learning are integral components of the Strategy to allow it to be adequately tracked and implemented.
\n\nThe Strategy covers a period of 10 years, during which several local, national, and international actors will closely collaborate to attain the specified objectives. Under the AU's overall supervision, the implementation will work alongside the Strategic Objectives, Overall and Specific Objectives, Expected Results, Key Strategic Interventions, and Actions. The digital MRLD hosted at the AU Headquarters in Addis Ababa will ensure that all planned interventions, outputs, and outcomes are on track and will be verified periodically during the lifetime of the Strategy.
\n\nGiven the geographical extent, the diverse human resource involvement, and the range of factors that can influence the scope and pace of the work, the process will be one of Monitoring, Reporting, and Learning (MRL) platform. To achieve this, the MRLD will be based on a well-defined and integrated result framework for the Strategy, including the indicators needed to achieve the desired results. Provision will be made for flexibility in unpredictable occurrences, such as health pandemics and economic disruptions. The active players who drive the implementation and MRLD activities will belong to the AU and its partner organizations, national governments, RECs, civil society, and the public and private sectors including continental policy research institutes.
\n\nThe MRLD will be used to monitor progress during the implementation phase of the AU Climate Change and Resilient Development Strategy and Action Plan. This will also allow the AU, RECs, MS, and other partners to track the level of success of the climate change programme across the continent.
\n\nThis would involve monitoring key indicators, data sourcing, collecting, managing, and guaranteeing quality assurance. It will respond to how data will be analyzed, feedback mechanisms for improving interventions, a learning platform for RECs and MS, questions relating to the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainability of the proposed interventions, and the contribution of stakeholders to achievements.
\n\nThe Climate Change Strategy is focused on supporting institutions (AUC and AU MSs and RECs) to provide an environment that enables effective mitigation, resilience, adaptation, improving capacities, and information collection, use, and dissemination. As a result, the successful implementation of this Strategy will partly depend on the ability and functionality of the digital MRLD to provide accurate and useful data, analytics, and response actions.
\n\n\n\n
\n\n
The objective of this assignment is to develop the AU Climate Change and Resilient Development Strategy and Action Plan’s Monitoring, Reporting and Learning Dashboard (MRLD).
\n\n\n\n
To achieve the above objective, the consultant will work closely with AUC, AU member states, Regional Economic Communities (RECs), AU Climate Commissions and other stakeholders.
\n\nThis can be done with existing information and analysis already conducted toward the development of the prototype, the initial indicators identified as well as the specific tasks to be accomplished as part of this assignment are detailed below.
\n\nTask 1: Development and synthesis of existing data, training, refining prototype and consultations
\n\n\n\n
Task 2: Develop approach and methodology for data collection, the dashboard and training
\n\n\n\n
\n\n
An interactive digital platform that supports effective monitoring, evaluation, peer learning and reporting on the implementation of the AU Climate Change and Resilient Development Strategy and Action Plan (2022-2032).
