PURPOSE
The Analyst will report to the GGPM Program Manager and will assist the Program Manager of the Green Growth Performance Measurement (GGPM) in delivering support to key stakeholders in Member and Partner Countries in close collaboration with GGGI Country Teams to apply the Green Growth Index and Simulation to measure performance in achieving sustainability targets such as the Sustainable Development Goals, Paris Climate Agreement, and Aichi Biodiversity Goals.
ENGAGEMENT
The Analyst will engage colleagues across Investment and Policy Solutions Division (IPSD) as well as country offices to develop and apply evidence-based tools and methods to support member and partner countries in measuring green growth performance. S/He will be based in GGGI’s Office in Budapest, Hungary.
