Over 80 percent of Yemen’s population is estimated to need humanitarian assistance, and more than 2.5 million Yemenis have become IDPs. The ongoing conflict has destroyed much of the institutional ability of key ministries, governorates, and local authorities to deliver essential social services to citizens. Public service restoration is also essential for a smooth transition to recovery, as a political agreement is being negotiated. Combining communities’ own efforts with whatever limited state institutional capacity remains are needed to both curtail further humanitarian deterioration and the political ramifications of total state collapse. Yemen is one of the most food insecure countries in the world. Around 20 million people (70 percent of the population) are facing hunger, a 13 percent increase from 2017. The current conflict has led to a decline in the national economy. Gross Domestic Product was cut in half since 2015, and more than 80 percent of the population living below the poverty line. The fighting around the country’s seaports and the ensuing suspension of commercial imports and supply shortages, the depreciation of the Yemeni riyal, which is now worth barely a third of 2015 level, have combined to push the food prices up. &nbsp;Only half of health facilities are functioning, and many Yemenis in need of critical treatments especially for malnutrition are too poor to access the ones that are open. Beyond those at risk of famine, many millions with only emergency food assistance to survive, face a collapse in their immune systems – especially children and the elderly – increasing their vulnerability to malnutrition, cholera and other diseases. Chronic water shortages exacerbate food insecurity and risk of famine in areas where people depend on agriculture for food and income.</p><br> <p>This heightened crisis is calling for scaled-up support to address the immediate needs while also leveraging and enhancing national capacities and systems for resilience-building for populations in Yemen with increased vulnerabilities that can complement a largely insufficient humanitarian response and at the same time for the need to maintain the existing capacities and mechanisms at local and national level to maintain the foundation for future reconstruction and recovery.</p><br> <p>The World Bank funded projects aim to Improve access to food and, nutritious diets, social protection, economic opportunities, food security and effective management of water sector in Yemen. This is done through several activities including infrastructure rehabilitation, support to improve agriculture production and quality by reducing post-harvest losses and improving climate resilience and access to markets</p><br> <p>While ensuring direct support in a fragile context, UNDP, in partnership with the WB is also strategizing to ensure that short term benefits are translated into longer term development impact.<br> &nbsp;</p><br> <p><strong>Position Purpose</strong></p><br> <p>UNDP is seeking to recruit a Chief Technical Advisor to manage three World Bank funded projects.&nbsp;S/he shall work under guidance of the Deputy Resident Representative for Programme, and shall provide strategic advice and technical oversight for the projects under his/her responsibility to ensure that all outputs are of high quality and consistent with the delivery of results according to the Project Documents and Project Result Frameworks and will provide coordination and technical guidance to projects team consisting for successful implementation of the outputs and activities.

These challenges have weakened governance systems, disrupted economic activity, and increased poverty, food insecurity, and vulnerability across the country.<br> While humanitarian assistance remains essential, sustainable recovery requires longer-term investments in livelihoods, economic resilience, local governance, institutional strengthening, and climate-resilient agriculture.</p><br> <p>UNDP is implementing a portfolio of complementary projects to address these interconnected challenges.

These challenges have weakened governance systems, disrupted economic activity, and increased poverty, food insecurity, and vulnerability across the country.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;While humanitarian assistance remains essential, sustainable recovery requires longer-term investments in livelihoods, economic resilience, local governance, institutional strengthening, and climate-resilient agriculture.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;UNDP is implementing a portfolio of complementary projects to address these interconnected challenges. This includes the Resilient Economies and Sustainable Livelihoods for Empowerment in Yemen (RESOLVE) project funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) ; the Local Governance for Area-based Development (LoGABD) project funded by the European Union (EU) ; and the Climate-Resilient Agriculture and Job Opportunities in Yemen (SANABEL) project, also funded by the EU. These projects are designed with a synergistic, area-based approach to maximize impact and efficiency.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;RESOLVE (SDC) focuses on strengthening the resilience and economic empowerment of vulnerable communities in Marib and Hadramout governorates by promoting sustainable livelihoods through agribusiness development, agricultural value chain strengthening, improved access to finance, and enhanced local economic governance.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;LoGABD (EU) aims to strengthen the capacity of local authorities across seven governorates (Aden, Hadramout, Lahj, Marib, Taiz, Al Mahrah, Socotra) to effectively plan, budget, finance, and deliver public services, manage IDP populations, and foster climate resilience.

<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles &amp; Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p>I. GENERAL SCOPE The widespread adoption of information and communications technologies (ICTs) across public and private institutions has made the establishment of comprehensive cyber and data related legislation imperative. In the Arab region, many countries have made progress in developing cyber laws; however, the rapid evolution of digital services such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), platform economies, and cross border data flows continues to outpace existing legal frameworks. To fully harness the benefits of digital transformation while addressing risks related to privacy, security, and misuse of data, Arab countries are encouraged to develop and modernize their legislative frameworks to meet the demands of the digital age. At the global level, the UN promotes responsible, inclusive, and trustworthy use of digital and emerging technologies in support of sustainable development. In September 2024, world leaders adopted the Pact for the Future during the Summit of the Future, together with its annexes: the Global Digital Compact (GDC) and the Declaration on Future Generations. The GDC places strong emphasis on digital trust, effective digital governance, and the protection of human rights in the digital environment. Central to these objectives is the protection of personal data, which the GDC recognizes as a cornerstone of trust in digital systems and a prerequisite for people s safe and meaningful participation in the digital economy. The UN ESCWA has a long standing role in supporting its member States in the development and reform of cyber legislation. In 2007, UN ESCWA published Models for Cyber Legislation in UN ESCWA Member Countries, which reviewed regional and international legal developments and proposed practical templates to assist countries in assessing and harmonizing national cyber laws. Through its technical cooperation program, UN ESCWA continues to support member States in strengthening legal, institutional, and regulatory capacities related to digital and emerging technologies, including data protection and regulatory oversight. Recently, the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology (MTIT) in Yemen has requested UN ESCWA s advisory services to support the development of a personal data protection law aligned with international standards and regional best practices. Such a law would contribute to strengthening trust in digital services, protecting individuals rights, and supporting Yemen s broader digital transformation efforts in line with global developments, including the principles set out in the GDC. In response, UN ESCWA is engaging a qualified legal consultant to provide specialized expertise in personal data protection, with specific attention to the Yemeni legal and institutional context. Yemen's ongoing conflict and fragile institutional environment require that the draft law include a realistic implementation sequencing recommendation, identifying which provisions can be operationalized in the near term and which require institutional prerequisites, such as the establishment of a data protection authority. The consultant shall draw on established international frameworks including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the OECD Guidelines on the Protection of Privacy and Transborder Flows of Personal Data (2013 revision), the Council of Europe Convention 108+, and the Arab League's draft model data protection law, selecting and adapting provisions appropriate to Yemen's legal, institutional, and developmental context. This consultancy is part of a coordinated package of three inter-related legal instruments being developed simultaneously for Yemen: Access to Information Law, Personal Data Protection Law, and an e-Transactions and Trust Services Law. The consultant shall be aware of this broader legislative package and shall flag, in the drafting notes annex, any provisions in the assigned law that intersect with or depend upon the other instruments, to ensure coherence across the three laws. The advisory services, including the scope of work and expected outputs, are detailed in these Terms of Reference. III. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the report on personal data protection law. To produce the draft report, the consultant is requested to conduct, among others, the main following tasks: 1. Benchmarking and Best Practices Review current national laws related to digital and emerging technologies in Yemen; Review best regional and international practices in personal data protection law covering at least 2 regional cases and 2 international cases, with justification for case selection provided in the report; 2. Stakeholder Engagement Identify main national stakeholders, hold, in coordination with MTIT, interviews and meetings with the main national stakeholders and preparing minutes of each meeting/interview summarizing the discussed points, their remarks, observations and proposals; Contribute to sectoral workshops to discuss needs and priorities, if needed; Discuss priorities and needs with MTIT and ESCWA; Document findings, priorities, and challenges. 3. Situational analysis Analyze existing legislation, and regulatory frameworks, including data-related provisions currently embedded in Yemen's telecommunications law, e-government frameworks, and sector-specific regulations, mapping these against international PDPL standards; Conduct a comprehensive gap analysis to identify gaps, overlaps, and contradictions with international PDPL standards 4. Law Development Draft a suggested law based on national needs, gap analysis, international/regional best practices, and ESCWA template for cyber legislations. The draft Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) shall include, at a minimum: o Preamble, objectives, and guiding principles (including lawfulness, fairness, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimisation, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity, and confidentiality); o Definitions and material/territorial scope of application (including extraterritorial reach, where applicable); o Legal bases for processing personal data, including consent, contractual necessity, legal obligation, vital interests, public interest, and legitimate interests, with specific conditions for validity of consent; o Special categories of personal data (sensitive data) and rules governing their processing, including additional safeguards;&nbsp;</p></div></section><section><p class="heading">Desired Candidate Profile</p><p class="paragraph"></p><p>An advanced university degree in law or a related field is required.
