Background Information – Cambodia
UNOPS established its Cambodia Office (KHOH) in early 2013. Since
then, KHOH has carried out a diverse set of projects/programs, such as a
multi-donor funded project to support the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts
of Cambodia (also known as the Khmer Rouge Tribunal). Also, KHOH has been
providing advisory services in the infrastructure sector to other development
partners, such as the Government of the Russian Federation and KOICA, and
procurement support and advisory services to different line ministries of the
Royal Government of Cambodia.
UNOPS KHOH is also overseeing business activities and/or providing
Support and Services to UNOPS operations in other countries, within the Greater
Mekong Sub-Region such as Lao PDR and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, as
well as the Philippines, mainly focused on the infrastructure sector, but also
encompassing good governance, trade facilitation and
environmental issues.
In addition, KHOH is providing Support Services to the Malaria
Programs and Regional Artemisinin Initiative (RAI) funded by the Global
Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM).
UNOPS KHOH is in the process of expanding its area of engagement
in cooperation with different development partners, focusing mainly on a
portfolio comprised of projects and programs in the infrastructure and
environmental sectors, as well as continuing with the provision of
transactional services (HR and Procurement services). For that, UNOPS is
subsequently looking for qualified and committed experts that can contribute to
fulfill our mandate in Greater Mekong Sub-Region and beyond.
Background
Information – Asia Regional Health Cluster
The Asia Regional Health Cluster (ARHC) was
established in 2018 for efficient delivery of grants and fund management, and
the provision of quality pharmaceuticals and health products. The ARHC aims to
significantly impact the targets of UN Sustainable Development Goal 3 on good
health and well-being, by expanding the population benefitting from
UNOPS-managed health-related engagements across the Asia Region. The ARHC
portfolio manages the PR Programme of the Global Fund, which has been providing
financial support to the GMS countries for Malaria programs since 2003. Global
Fund has selected UNOPS as a regional PR, responsible for delivering the
targets set out in the grant agreements in collaboration with selected
sub-recipients (SRs) from the National Programmes, local and international
NGOs, the private sector and other UN agencies. UNOPS in Cambodia is currently
the Principal Recipient programme (PR) for the Regional Artemisinin Resistance
Initiative (RAI).
