To this end, the project implements activities in three main areas of intervention: - Pillar 1: Fostering global knowledge exchange and peer-learning regarding the sustainable transformation of the economy and the financial sector. - Pillar 2: Supporting development of policy and regulatory frameworks in partner countries governing the transformation toward a sustainable economy and financial sector in partner countries. - Pillar 3: Providing advisory services and technical assistance to embed sustainability in governance and financial decision-making of financial institutions. In pillar 2, the project supports partner countries in aligning their financial regulatory and policy frameworks with international standards and best practices on sustainable finance.

The objective of this tender is to establish a flexible pool of specialized technical expertise that can support sustainable finance taxonomy initiatives in partner countries designated by GIZ during the contract period.
