two.1.4) Short description

UK PACT is the UK’s flagship climate technical assistance programme. The programme’s overall objective is to alleviate poverty through emissions reductions. UK PACT is a flexible technical assistance programme that is designed to support a portfolio of countries to increase their future climate ambitions, reduce their emissions, and accelerate just transitions to clean growth. A key feature of UK PACT is that it aims to respond explicitly to partner government demand for capacity building interventions, and that it shares UK expertise (for example in areas such as climate legislation, green finance and smart energy).

UK PACT is funded by Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office, and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, under the International Climate Finance portfolio, as part of the UK Government’s £11.6 billion commitment to support ODA-eligible countries to respond to the challenges and opportunities of climate change.

We anticipate making the draft Terms of Reference available to all interested parties via the Jaggaer Portal - a PQQ linked to this project will be created to share documents and maintain pre-procurement dialogue.
