National Forestry Specialist

3 months ago


Hanoi, Hanoi, Vietnam FAO - Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Full time

Organizational Setting


Under the UN-REDD Programme, FAO is leading the coordination of delivery of the UN-REDD Technical Assistance (TA) in Viet Nam, since 2017.

The UN-REDD TA 2023 supports the Government of Viet Nam through the Department of Forestry (DOF) in accessing results-based payments under the LEAF Coalition, for a jurisdictional REDD project covering 11 provinces in Viet Nam.

FAO's support under the UN-REDD TA includes the support to filling gaps against the ART/TREES carbon standard, specifically to address the legal ability of the jurisdiction (Government of Viet Nam) to have their TREES credits (emission reduction and removals (ERRs)) issued on the ART registry, and ultimately sold to Emergent on behalf of the LEAF Coalition.


The current legal framework of Vietnam presents a gap regarding the transfer of Emission Reduction (ER) credits from natural forests under the LEAF program.

While the mandate of MARD to manage and protect natural forests is well-established, the legal authority for MARD to transfer ERs generated from these forests remains unclear without a specific Prime Ministerial decree.

This lack of explicit legal provisions creates uncertainty for potential buyers and could hinder the effectiveness of the LEAF program.

In contrast, the legal framework surrounding ERs from planted forests (often under private ownership) is clearer, as ownership and transfer rights typically reside with the forest owners themselves.

A Prime Ministerial decree specifically addressing the transfer of ERs from natural forests under the LEAF program and referring to a well-designed BSP as a condition for ERPA agreement would provide much-needed legal clarity.

This decree would define MARD's authority in this process and ensure a smooth and transparent system for ER transactions, ultimately facilitating the success of the LEAF program.

Currently, the Department of Forestry (DOF) is exchanging and discussing with Emergent to complete records and documents (draft ERPA and Report to the Prime Minister) to advise the MARD to get opinions from the relevant ministries, branches and localities for ERPA negotiation for submission to the Prime Minister.

To complete the technical conditions and mobilize resources to implement ERPA, the task of developing legal regulations to implement the ERPA is crucial.


Reporting Lines


The incumbent will work under the overall guidance of the FAO Representative in Viet Nam, the direct supervision of the Assistant FAOR-Programme in the FAO Representation in Viet Nam.

Operationally and technically, the incumbent will work with the responsible Forestry Officer (based in RAP), the National Coordinator, the UN-REDD regional teams of FAO and UNEP, as well as other colleagues within the UN-REDD team.


Technical Focus

  • Report on receiving and explaining comments from relevant parties and completing the draft Report determining ER results for each province
