Overview of position |
Libya is experiencing significant political conflict, insecurity and economic challenges five years after the 17 February 2011 Revolution. The overall environment is characterized by deep political polarization, increased institutional uncertainty, continuous violence and growing threat of terrorism.
In accordance with its mandate, UNSMIL has been actively engaged in efforts to mediate a peaceful resolution to Libya's political and institutional crisis and bring an end to the armed conflict. After the 17 December signature of the Libyan Political Agreement (LPA), the formation of the Government of National Accord (GNA) is an important step towards restoring state institutions in Libya and create the environment and opportunity to reinvigorate the process of Libya's democratic transition. UNDP is providing substantive and logistical support to UNSMIL to widen the support to the LPA and provide technical assistance to the GNA.
Libya is at a critical junction in its development process. International technical support and development funds have been secured from multiple countries, and a variety of development projects have been proposed at all administrative levels. The Ministry of Planning is working to identify projects that will be most effective in addressing the immediate needs of the Libyan people.
To that effect the Ministry of Planning has requested UNDP to recruit a Human Resources Officer who will be responsible for supporting the Technical Cooperation Unit to provide expert advice on HR practices in the aid management and coordination, with the overall aim to support the MoP to more effectively align and implement international and national development resources in support of the Libyan Political Agreement (LPA). |
