1. Introduction and Background

STT is a Cambodian Urban NGO working with vulnerable urban poor communities, in Phnom Penh and the provinces, who are affected by land and housing rights issues. STT is currently implementing four related projects: 1) Community Mapping, Housing Improvement and Urban Resilience Project; 2) Housing Rights and Research Project; 3) Community Empowerment Project; and 4) Community ICT and Media Project. Each year, to support the advocacy work of STT and other partner organizations, STT undertakes research into key issues affecting urban poor communities under the threat of eviction.STT also has a strong focus on strengthening the advocacy capacity of community activists and provides a number of social media, ICT and land and housing right trainings to urban and rural communities.

STT is looking to hire an external consultant to produce a manual and conduct trainings on various topics including climate change resilience, climate change adaptation, climate-smart technologies, the relationship between STT’s work and SDGs, and other environmental topics.

2. Objective

The purpose of the consultancy is to help STT staff build strong foundations, knowledge, and develop awareness over a plurality of climate change-related topics. The aim is to increase STT’s technical working capacity, and ability to incorporate a climate-conscious approach to all STT’s work – when working with vulnerable urban communities.

– Before commencement of work, the consultant is required to submit a proposal including methodology, a strategy, and an action plan, as well as a budget to STT.

– The consultant is expected to produce a manual, which can be used as an internal training document for future STT staff and interns. The manual can be developed and designed in any form – however, it must include at least five or six chapters or modules on climate-related
topics, which can then be applied and used as STT guidelines.
– A short report on the process, staff progress, and further recommendations will be produced and submitted to STT.

4. Methods and Activities

The manual and training course will use standard ToT methodologies/techniques. The training will be conducted in a way so that participants will have the opportunity to learn and practice new key techniques and methodologies – useful to STT’s overall work. With regards to the timing of training sessions, this will be discussed once the consultant is selected. The timeframe is flexible, and it should be noted that STT offices are open only Monday-Friday, 8am to 5pm.
