                INTRODUCTION TO\u00a0 COUNTRY PROGRAM<\/h5>\n

                The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) is a treaty-based international, inter-governmental organization dedicated to supporting and promoting a model of economic growth known as “green growth”, which targets key aspects of economic performance such as poverty reduction, job creation, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n

                GGGI works with countries around the world, building their capacity and working collaboratively on green growth policies that can impact the lives of millions. The organization partners with countries, multilateral institutions, government bodies, and private sectors to help build economies that grow strongly and are more efficient and sustainable in the use of natural resources, less carbon-intensive, and more resilient to climate change.<\/p>\n

                The GGGI Lao PDR program has been expanding rapidly in the areas of climate change, green cities, and green investment mobilization. Since 2019, GGGI Lao PDR has been implementing a 5-year program covering solid waste management, sanitation, and green city planning in Vientiane and Pakse, with support from KOICA. GGGI has also been implementing projects supported by the Green Climate Fund and European Union in green finance, capacity building, climate modelling, energy efficiency, electric mobility, and climate policy.<\/p>\n

                GGGI Lao PDR\u2019s Finance and Corporate Service unit (FCS) provides programmatic support across the country portfolio in key areas such as administration, procurement, human resource management, budgeting, financial reporting, and communications. As the portfolio grows in complexity, GGGI is seeking an experienced Finance and Operations Officer to lead the FCS unit.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":8086,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_members_access_role":[],"_members_access_error":""},"job_type":[32,94],"location":[49],"job_function":[],"expiration":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19964","job","type-job","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","job_type-full-time","job_type-ingo-cso","location-vientiane"],"acf":[],"a3_pvc":{"activated":true,"total_views":1,"today_views":1},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job\/19964","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/job"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job\/19964\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19966,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job\/19964\/revisions\/19966"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8086"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19964"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"job_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_type?post=19964"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=19964"},{"taxonomy":"job_function","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_function?post=19964"},{"taxonomy":"expiration","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/expiration?post=19964"},{"taxonomy":"tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jobsnocap.com\/lo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19964"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
