Origination Facility
ToR for Short-term Consultancy to Identify Two Initial
Business Investment Proposals in Ethiopia
1. Organisation Description
In its new Strategic Plan period (2019 – 2022), SNV will more explicitly aim for systems change
during project preparation and implementation - by strengthening institutions and kick-starting
markets that help many more, to escape poverty beyond our projects. We will continue to position
ourselves as a premium organisation, with highly decentralised management. For more information
on SNV, visit our website: www.snv.org
2. Project Background
SNV is a member of the €130 million Dutch Fund for Climate and Development (DFCD)
(www.thedfcd.com), a Netherlands based consortium (led by FMO, Dutch development bank).
DFCD objectives are to (i) provide finance and Technical Assistance (TA) to projects with a focus on
climate change adaptation; (ii) mobilise external private sector funding at scale; and (iii) align
directly with DFCD Theory of Change (ToC).
The DFCD allows for investments in projects aimed at climate change adaptation and mitigation in
developing countries. SNV, as part of the DFCD Origination Facility, will identify and develop,
together with local companies and stakeholders, bankable business case propositions, which can
subsequently be picked up by the DFCD Investment Facilities (Water and Land-use) for further
development, match-making and investment. The DFCD presents an important additional
instrument for the Dutch government’s efforts in contributing to the Paris Agreement and the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
SNV seeks an experienced consultant to support the SNV DFCD Origination Facility team in East
Africa in the following:
