UNOPS has been selected as one of the main implementing partners on a new peace programme in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Together with the Congolese government, KfW Development Bank
supports the "Peace Fund" to help stabilize and bring peace to the country. The bilateral programme "Fund for Peacebuilding - FCP1 ", which has been supported by the German Government through the KfW Development Bank since 2007, is intended to help promote lasting peace, particularly in the eastern DRC. 

The project rationale is centered around supporting the peace efforts and initiatives in Eastern DRC through social infrastructures in order to 1. Facilitate access to social services and economic opportunities for the beneficiaries and 2. Use the infrastructure as a way to build and/or reinforce peace and social cohesion within communities and regions, which will ultimately provide further economic and social opportunities for the targeted regions.

Another infrastructure project funded by the World Bank is being negotiated with the donor and government partners, will be implemented in the Est DRC, and requires knowledge on peace and security. 

Meanwhile UNOPS is expanding its offices in the Central African region, specifically in Burundi and Rwanda. 

To expand our work in these countries, by strengthening our value proposition, fortifying our internal capacity to respond rapidly to funders’ and government’s requests, enhancing our added value UNOPS is recruiting two Project development Analysts to support the development of technical project proposals that will help to build further the portfolio in DRC, and Burundi. 

The Project Development Analyst serves as a technical analyst, researcher, reviewer and advisor in support of the development of this new KFW funded project which is not fully developed yet. The project development analyst will contribute to the full fledged development of the new project proposal and do the required research so as to ensure that technical, peacebuilding and human rights activities and basic rural infrastructural services and products are designed and developed in accordance to customer and UNOPS expectations.
