UN Talent Pro Details Result of Service The CCAC Technical Consultant – Expert on super pollutants, NDC 3.0 and MRV for the Dominican Republic will be responsible for developing and managing robust, transparent, and internationally aligned monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) systems for GHGs and SLCPs in particular for CH4 and HFCs, ensuring high-quality data collection, rigorous quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), and timely reporting that supports national planning, international obligations, and co-benefit tracking. Work Location Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic Expected duration 12 months Duties and Responsibilities The UNEP-convened Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) is a partnership of governments, intergovernmental organizations, and representatives of the private sector, the environmental community, and other members of civil society. The CCAC is the only international initiative working on integrated climate and clean air solutions to reduce the rate of near-term warming. It focuses on fast action to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) including methane, black carbon, HFCs and tropospheric ozone. More information about the CCAC is here: www.ccacoalition.org. As of October 2023, the same team is providing secretariat services to the Global Methane Pledge. More information about the Global Methane Pledge is here: www.globalmethanepledge.org The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) hosts the Secretariat at the Industry & Economy Division in Paris. Since joining the Climate and Clean Air Coalition in 2012, the Dominican Republic has a launched several initiatives to address the interrelated challenges of climate change and air pollution. In 2026, Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC 3.0) increased its climate ambition by committing a 28% reduction in GHG emissions compared to the BAU (business as usual) scenario by 2030 and 32% by 2035; equivalent to 14,732.1 kt CO₂ eq, and by 32% to 2035, equivalent to 18,349.32 kt CO₂ eq, with respect to the trend scenario (BAU), taking the base year 2022 as a reference. Therefore, of the 28% reduction commitment, 8.5% is unconditional, financed with national resources and other sources managed by the country, and 19.5% is conditional on external financing, technology transfer, capacity building and strengthening, and additional international cooperation. The mitigation package is divided into 26 policies, actions and measures (PAMs) across the five priority sectors. In this context, there are some challenges regarding the implementation of mitigation policies in key sectors, such as energy, industry, agriculture, waste and land use. The Dominican Republic faces several challenges in advancing its NDC 3.0 RD-2025: - Design of a detailed action plan with measurable indicators for CH4 and HFC mitigation. - Regulatory frameworks need updating to support sectoral climate actions. - Financing and investment mobilization remain limited. - Institutional and technical gaps in MRV systems for emissions in agriculture, waste, and industrial sectors. - Lack of analytical tools and pre-investment studies to accelerate climate projects and engage effectively in carbon markets under the Paris Agreement. As a partner of the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) and a signatory to the Global Methane Pledge, the country has demonstrated sustained leadership on super pollutants for more than a decade. To support these efforts, the CCAC is seeking a CCAC Technical Consultant – Expert on super pollutants, NDC 3.0 and MRV for the Dominican Republic to enhance Government’s capacity to develop and manage robust, transparent, and internationally aligned MRV systems for GHGs and SLCPs ensuring high-quality data collection, rigorous quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), and timely reporting that supports national planning, climate commitments, international obligations, and co-benefit tracking. Objectives: The CCAC Technical Consultant – Expert on super pollutants, NDC 3.0 and MRV for the Dominican Republic will provide support to: - A fully operational, transparent, and internationally aligned MRV system for GHGs, SLCPs, specially CH4 and HFCs and key air pollutants that meets IPCC, UNFCCC, and CCAC standards, enabling consistent data collection, harmonized methodologies, and reliable national reporting across sectors. - Strengthened QA/QC procedures ensuring high‑quality, verifiable emissions data.
