Organizational Setting
The main aim of the FAO country offices, which are headed by an FAO Representative, is to assist governments to develop policies, programs, and projects to achieve food security and to reduce hunger and malnutrition, to develop the agricultural, fisheries and forestry sectors, and to use their environmental and natural resources in a sustainable manner.

FAO Liberia is implementing a joint program on Community Forestry Management in two of Liberia’s priority landscapes. With funding from the Embassy of Sweden, and under a UN-to-UN arrangement with UNDP, through the Multi Partner Trust Fund (MPTF). FAO will implement the program working with the Forestry Development Authority (FDA) and other relevant government institutions, international and national non-governmental organizations, as well as development institutions working towards sustainable natural resource management, environmental protection, and biodiversity conservation.

The Joint Programme, entitled “Community-Based Forestry and Protected Area Management: Boosting Biodiversity Conservation and Improving Livelihoods of Forest-Fringe/Forest-Dependent Communities and Groups in Liberia” seeks to strengthen management of community forests and protected areas in Liberia through improved governance of community forest management bodies, capacity building of forest regulatory institutions, empowerment of national CSOs/NGOs and Forest and Farm Producer Organizations, integrated natural resources management and the promotion of sustainable livelihood incentives for forest fringe communities.

The Joint Programme, building on the experiences of each organization, will work across the following four components:
• Component 1: Enabling policy, governance framework and institutional capacity for CFM
• Component 2: Promote effective community-based management of PAs and INRM in the target landscapes
• Component 3: Create and strengthen resilient, low-emission land management, equitable, non-timber forest product smallholder value chains through sustainable business development of forest and farm producers, and their organizations (e.g., cooperatives)
• Component 4: Knowledge management, communication and awareness, gender mainstreaming, and monitoring & evaluation

As part of the above Component 3, the activity 3.1.3.2 will “Implement sustainable production standards and criteria through Training of Trainers (ToT) with a focus on women’s empowerment, quality control systems, transparency, accountability, participation, inclusion and value chain analysis”; which tends to address capacity barriers to increasing livelihood opportunities for communities by strengthening their capacities to become more climate-resilient including through diversification, enterprise development, marketing and access to finance using sustainable land and forest management as well as sustainable agricultural practices.

In so doing, FAO – Liberia is seeking two national consultants to develop two manuals of sustainable production standards and criteria and to build capacity of selected non-governmental organization (NGOs)/ Community-Based Organization (CBOs) and Community Forest Management Bodies (CFMBs)/Community leaders including women and persons with disability through training of trainers (ToT). This will ensure the project promotes women’s participation and empowerment to strengthen their roles in planning and decision-making, and to improve their productivity, incomes, and living conditions.
