The Federal Government of Somalia has received financing from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) through the African Development Fund toward the cost of the Multi-National Climate Disaster Risk
Financing Project (CDRF–ADRiFi Project – Somalia), and intends to apply part of the agreed grant amount to payments under the contract for a National Individual Consultant to support the operationalization of the Gender Equity and Inclusivity Oversight Function (GEIOF) within the Federal Government of Somalia’s Climate Data and Services Institutional Framework.
The Somali Disaster Management Agency (SoDMA) has already formally established the GEIOF by a decision of the Office of the Commissioner. The assignment is to operationalize and institutionalize that existing function, not to establish a new body or alter its approved mandate, authority or membership.
