UNFPA wishes to nationally recruit a team of three qualified and dedicated consultants who will be charged with the responsibility of conducting the midterm review of the GOK/UNFPA 7th Country Programme and preparing the Country Brief and/or other technical papers as may be required.

The consultant on Population and Development will be the team leader and will in this capacity coordinate the activities of his/her co-consultants and assess the extent to which the various outputs contribute in meeting the aims of the GOK/UNFPA 7th Country Programme and the Government’s overall population objectives as they relate to the ICPD and ICPD+5 goals.
