This is to inform you that the Convention Secretariat has published on 22 February 2022, via the WHO, a Request for Proposals for Development of the global funding gap indicator and making a calculation of the global funding gap for the implementation of the WHO FCTC, in line with the Global Strategy to Accelerate Tobacco Control: Advancing Sustainable Development through the Implementation of the WHO FCTC 2019–2025.

The Convention Secretariat seeks to identify a suitable contractor to provide expert advice in order to develop an indicator to measure the gap in global funding for WHO FCTC implementation, provide a baseline figure of the global funding gap in WHO FCTC implementation and provide a methodological tool that could be used by the Parties to the WHO FCTC to measure/calculate their own national funding gap for WHO FCTC implementation. Those potentially interested can obtain additional details through the terms of reference.

The Request for Proposals is published on the United Nations Global Market website, available through this link.

The deadline for submission of proposals is 15 April 2022.
