Overview :
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outline a compelling vision of a desired future for our planet and the people within it. Achieving these global goals will cost an annual estimated $5-7 trillion dollars and will likely shape the next 15 years of financing for development. A Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN unsdsn.org) studies in 2015 show that SDG-related incremental spending needs in low and lower-middle-income countries may amount to at least $1.4 trillion per year. The development landscape in the Asia-Pacific region is significantly shifting with the growing portfolio of government co-financing and private sector initiatives and resulting in a dramatic shift in the way resources are being mobilized and allocated to development issues across countries. It is estimated that approximately half of the investments in the SDGs can be privately financed. In this context, new sources of capital that can help finance SDGs is required, ranging from large institutional investors to the private wealth industry to help promote sustainable development. UNDP recently released its Private Sector and Foundations Strategy for the SDGs 2016-2020 which provides the guidance on how UNDP can engage with the private sector and philanthropic foundations for SDGs. As noted above, the private sector plays an important role as an engine of economic growth and job creation in developing countries. It provides goods and services, generates tax revenues to finance essential social and economic infrastructure, and helps combating climate change and developing new and innovative solutions to tackle development challenges. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the UN’s global development network, working in 177 countries and territories. In the Asia-Pacific region, UNDP has embarked upon a range of innovative private sector initiatives at regional and country level, including developing inclusive businesses; leveraging companies’ core competence and innovation for sustainable development; making corporate social responsibility more impactful;and promoting social impact investing for SDGs. UNDP has also been working with broad-based partnerships, including corporates, financial institutions, High Net-Worth Individuals (HNWI), Family Trusts and Social Impact investors. UNDP works with companies from a variety of sectors, for example, water, energy, extractives, food and agriculture, consumer products, healthcare, finance and information technology. UNDP’s work related to the private sector takes various forms, for example:
UNDP Malaysia is fully engaged in supporting the national priorities and the implementation of national medium and long-term development plans outlined in the 11th Malaysia Plan and other sectoral development policies and strategies. UNDP’s Country Programme consciously attempts to link strategic policy initiatives with downstream pilot projects so that UNDP’s work is informed by ground realities and supports national development objectives while remaining consistent with the national development plan. To strategically grow these important engagements, and develop long-term sustainable business model for scaling up, UNDP Malaysia seeks an individual consultant to undertake a due-diligence based on UNDP corporate tools, guidelines and policies of selected corporations in Malaysia that could potentially contribute to the development financing landscape in Malaysia and the Asia Pacific region and support aligning business practices and capital market with the SDGs. The consultant will work as part of the Programme team, under the guidance and direct supervision of the Assistant Resident Representative (Programme) or the appointed Programme Manager.
