Terms of Reference Technical Assistance For Implementation of Small-scale Construction Activities In Hariyo Ban Program The Hariyo Ban Program, funded by USAID and implemented by a consortium of WWF, CARE, NTNC and FECOFUN with WWF as the lead, aims to reduce adverse impacts of climate change and threats to biodiversity in Nepal. It works on three core interwoven components –biodiversity conservation, sustainable landscapes and climate change adaptation – with livelihoods, gender and social inclusion being important cross cutting themes. Hariyo Ban Program is being implemented in two biodiverse priority landscapes of Nepal – Terai Arc Landscape (TAL) and Chitwan-Annapurna Landscape (CHAL), complemented by enabling policy support at the national level. Hariyo Ban Program supports implementation of small-scale construction activities (infrastructures) in the two landscapes in order to realize its project objectives. These activities span the three thematic components as well as the cross-cutting livelihoods component (Annex-1: list of small-scale construction activities in Year 3). These infrastructures are wide ranging and are being developed to address specific project- related needs. For example, in biodiversity conservation, electric fencing and dykes are used to reduce human-wildlife conflict, enabling increased crop and livestock production and reducing human casualties, which in turn reduces retaliatory killing of large mammals such as elephant and tiger. Similarly, check dams are used to restore wetlands and grasslands in areas where drier conditions are resulting in loss of wetlands to grassland, and grassland to forest. Improved water supplies for wildlife help reduce human-wildlife conflict, and are also an adaptation to climate change in areas where natural water sources are drying up because of changing rainfall patterns. Under the climate adaptation component, improved water supplies for people and livestock help improve livelihoods and human wellbeing, and enable people to adapt to climate change. Repairing or opening new small-scale irrigation systems improve livelihoods through increased agricultural production and can build resilience to climate change. Repair/upgrading of foot trails improves access by foot for ecotourism and access to markets, both of which improve local livelihoods. Other measures to adapt to climate change include building small-scale dykes to reduce flooding, and check dams to reduce landslides, flooding and siltation. In the sustainable landscapes component, repair/upgrading of fire-line roads helps to combat uncontrolled fires which are a major driver of deforestation/forest degradation. Biogas helps to reduce several drivers, including overharvesting of firewood, overgrazing, and overuse of other forest products through development of vegetable farming as an alternative livelihood.

Technical Assistance For

Implementation of Small-scale Construction Activities In

Hariyo Ban Program

The Hariyo Ban Program, funded by USAID and implemented by a consortium of WWF, CARE, NTNC and FECOFUN with WWF as the lead, aims to reduce adverse impacts of climate change and threats to biodiversity in Nepal. It works on three core interwoven components –biodiversity conservation, sustainable landscapes and climate change adaptation – with livelihoods, gender and social inclusion being important cross cutting themes. Hariyo Ban Program is being implemented in two biodiverse priority landscapes of Nepal – Terai Arc Landscape (TAL) and Chitwan-Annapurna Landscape (CHAL), complemented by enabling policy support at the national level. Hariyo Ban Program supports implementation of small-scale construction activities (infrastructures) in the two landscapes in order to realize its project objectives. These activities span the three thematic components as well as the cross-cutting livelihoods component (Annex-1: list of small-scale construction activities in Year 3). These infrastructures are wide ranging and are being developed to address specific project-related needs. For example, in biodiversity conservation, electric fencing and dykes are used to reduce human-wildlife conflict, enabling increased crop and livestock production and reducing human casualties, which in turn reduces retaliatory killing of large mammals such as elephant and tiger. Similarly, check dams are used to restore wetlands and grasslands in areas where drier conditions are resulting in loss of wetlands to grassland, and grassland to forest. Improved water supplies for wildlife help reduce human-wildlife conflict, and are also an adaptation to climate change in areas where natural water sources are drying up because of changing rainfall patterns. Under the climate adaptation component, improved water supplies for people and livestock help improve livelihoods and human wellbeing, and enable people to adapt to climate change. Repairing or opening new small-scale irrigation systems improve livelihoods through increased agricultural production and can build resilience to climate change.

small scale and largely community managed infrastructures (Annex-2: guidelines for small-scale construction activities). As committed in the guideline, two consortium partners, WWF and CARE, are commissioning consultancy work for certified engineering consulting firms (consultant) to provide technical assistance for the implementation of small-scale construction activities. WWF and CARE may commission one single consultancy, or may divide the work geographically into more than one consultancy by large groups of districts.

1. Objective

The objective of the consultancy is:

To provide consulting engineering technical assistance for the largely community managed, small-scale construction activities in Hariyo Ban Program, from feasibility assessment to planning and design, implementation and preparation of work completion reports, in order to ensure effective and high quality construction based on set norms and specifications.

2. Supervision and Coordination

For WWF, the consultant will be supervised by Anjana Shrestha, Program Associate Hariyo Ban Program WWF. The consultant will collaborate closely with Abdul Ansari and Tilak Dhakal Co-Managers and Purna Kunwar, CHAL Field Coordinator in WWF Nepal, including relevant members of Hariyo Ban core team, and Hariyo Ban consortium partners in the field. For CARE, the consultant will be supervised by Umesh Shrestha, Governance Specialist, Hariyo Ban Program for CARE. The consultant will collaborate closely with Pratima Shrestha and Man Bahadur BK, Climate Change Adaptation Specialists in CARE Nepal, including relevant members of Hariyo Ban core team, and Hariyo Ban consortium partners in the field. 3. Activities/Methodology

The consultant will undertake the following tasks for each construction project:

• Feasibility study
