Background


The main mandate of the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) is to promote sustainable development of human settlements and policies conducive to adequate housing for all.

Within this framework, UN-Habitat supports central and state governments, as well as local authorities and other partners for the implementation of the Habitat Agenda, the 2030 Agenda with the Sustainable Development Goals and the New Urban Agenda.


UN-Habitat helps the urban poor by transforming cities into safer, more inclusive, compact, integrated, resilient and connected places with better opportunities where everyone can live with dignity.

It works with organizations at every level, including all spheres of government, civil society and the private sector to help build, manage, plan and finance sustainable urban development.

The Regional Office for Latin American and the Caribbean - ROLAC - is based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Agency puts emphasis in developing and managing activities in the host country.

Indeed, for the past years, UN-Habitat has expanded its portfolio in Brazil by working with the three tiers of government in order to support the formulation and implementation of more effective, sustainable, participative and socially fairer urban economic, social and environmental policies.


Through a partnership with the Government of the State of Alagoas to improve institutional and technical capacities of State and municipal stakeholders on sustainable territorial and urban development, UN-Habitat is now setting up the second phase of the project named "Sustainable and inclusive urban prosperity in the State of Alagoas".

This second phase shall lead to enhance State of Alagoas engagement toward sustainable and inclusive urban prosperity, through a better understanding of the urban setting, and the establishment or improvement of its public policies, plans, and actions.


And through a partnership with the Municipality of São Paulo to implement city-wide and neighbourhood-level approaches to generate more inclusive and sustainable green public spaces, UN-Habitat is now developing an evaluation framework for the city's 111 municipal parks.

For this purpose, UN-Habitat will use the City-Wide Public Space Assessment toolkit.

This evaluation framework includes a set of indicators for primary data collection in parks and their surroundings through observation and interview questionaires.


In order to properly implement these projects, a Consultant (Statistics, Sampling, Post-stratification and Data Analysis) is required to ensure a good execution of the work programme.
