This project aims to help Caribbean countries deliver climate-resilient infrastructure initiatives more quickly and effectively through the establishment of the Caribbean Resilient Infrastructure Implementation and Skills Exchange (RIISE) Facility. The Facility focuses on the implementation phase of infrastructure projects by providing rapid, on-demand advisory support and short-term expert deployments to work alongside government teams. In its initial period, the Facility will provide support to Dominica, Grenada, Saint Lucia, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

Project activities include: (1) establishment of the RIISE facility; (2) curating a roster of experts that prioritizes regional expertise and supports gender responsive and disability inclusive infrastructure development; (3) operating a rapid response helpdesk to troubleshoot procurement, contract management, and design issues that slow implementation; and (4) deploying specialists to work with ministries and project units at critical points during project implementation, while transferring skills to national staff.

By unblocking bottlenecks and building local know-how, the Facility supports more timely, higher quality infrastructure that benefits people across participating countries by improving access to climate-resilient roads, energy, water, housing, and public buildings and by strengthening the capacity of national institutions to deliver major projects.

The purpose of this agreement is to support the Forest and Climate Leaders' Partnership Secretariat's 2025-26 workplan.

This project aims to strengthen Morocco’s leadership role in regional stability and terrorism prevention, in compliance with human rights standards and gender-responsive approaches. The United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) implements this project to the benefit of the Training Center for the Gendarmerie Royale’s tactical policing unit (Groupement de Sécurité et d'Intervention de la Gendarmerie Royale (GSIGR)) located in Benslimane, Morocco.

It seeks to support data sharing with humanitarian partners and ongoing coordination with stakeholders to enhance delivery capacity and transparency. Project activities include 1) recruiting and deploying monitors and coordinators across operational corridors; 2) procuring logistics and IT equipment; and (3) supporting the Jordanian Humanitarian Corridor.

This project aims to address the challenges of socio-economic inclusion and women's safety in Tunisian medinas, particularly in M’saken, Mahdia, Sousse, and Kairouan, while integrating climate change adaptation measures and access to water. The project seeks to promote the socio-economic empowerment of women residing in the medinas by improving public spaces and strengthening the capacities of municipalities to integrate gender considerations into their sustainable urban planning processes.

The project's activities include: 1) online communication and awareness campaigns on the inclusion and engagement of women in the medinas, as well as strengthening the capacities of Tunisian municipalities to integrate women's needs into city governance ; 2) identifying local NGOs led by women to manage and animate rehabilitated spaces ; 3) creating products aimed at capturing, documenting, and sharing lessons learned, best practices, and impacts achieved during the first phase of the Femmedina Inclusive City Program, to demonstrate the importance of gender integration in public space planning and to enable the replication of the project's successes in other regions ; 4) training for municipal executives and staff on integrating a gender perspective into governance and urban planning, as well as knowledge and experience exchanges with other Tunisian cities and international city networks, including Canadian cities pioneering inclusive urban development.

Through this project, the United Nations Office for Project Services supports the Haitian National Police (HNP) to equipping and improving infrastructure at their National Police School and Academy (ENP and ANP) to build their ranks and expertise to effectively counter gang violence and regain control of the country.

This procurement project will enhance the capacity of the HNP to operate and respond to criminal gang activity in high-risk areas while ensuring HNP personnel are provided with the appropriate protective gear and equipment to reduce causalities and increase operability in policing activities.

This project aims to strengthen security and counter-terrorism operations by improving close quarter battlefield (CQB) techniques for Tunisia’s National Guard Academy in Bir Bouregba, in accordance with international human rights, rule of law standards, and gender considerations. Project activities include: the construction of a CQB training facility; the supply of modernized equipment and training to improve the monitoring, data analysis, and real-time communication capacities of law enforcement officers; technical assistance to improve Standard Operating Procedures for the appropriate and safe use of CQB techniques; and technical assistance to promote and increase the capacity of female officers in frontline and operational roles.

The purpose of this project is to expand the JAF Military Women’s Training Centre (MWTC) until it has the capacity to run a full Basic Training Course (BTC) within its compound which will serve to increase the number of females training. This project will focus on the following infrastructure for the MWTC: a 100 by 60-metre parade square, 4 outdoor classrooms (Gazebo), and increasing quality-of-life by improving existing accommodations by including a sunshade with fencing and gates. This will provide the women with a private outdoor study area accommodating to their cultural privacy traditions.

This requirement is part of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) mandate to enhance JAF operations within Jordan. The MWTC is responsible for training the increased number of females joining the JAF, and is lacking the space necessary to train their soldiers. By updating and providing infrastructure, this project will allow the MWTC to train more recruits in accordance with cultural norms.
