Purpose of the consultancy. The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) Geneva leads NRC’s humanitarian policy work and representation with the Inter- Agency Standing Committee (IASC) and United Nations (UN) agencies, and coordinates donor engagement with the UN and Swiss donors. NRC strives to assist and protect vulnerable and displaced people during crises, especially in situations of conflict. Established in 1946, NRC is an independent, displacement, humanitarian, non-profit, non-governmental organisation working in more than 31 countries with approximately 14’000 staff. NRC employs a rights-based approach, challenging those with responsibility to uphold the rights of displaced people set out within national and International Laws. NRC endeavours to secure the acceptance of local stakeholders for activities and is committed to the principles of humanity, neutrality, independence and impartiality. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) is the world’s authoritative source of data and analysis on internal displacement. Since its establishment in 1998 as part of the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC/IDMC), it offers a rigorous, transparent and independent service to the international community, and inform policy and operational decisions to improve the lives of people living in, or at risk of, internal displacement. IDMC monitors more than 130 countries in the world for which it provides verified, consolidated and multi-sourced estimates of the number of people internally displaced or at risk of becoming displaced by conflict, violence, disasters and development projects. It complements this global data with interdisciplinary research into the drivers, patterns and impacts of internal displacement. Using this evidence, we provide tailor-made advice and support to inform global, regional and national policy-making. Its data and evidence are published on our website and via its Global Internal Displacement Database (xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx- xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxx). Its flagship report, the Global Report on Internal Displacement (xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/global-report/grid2021/) published every year in May, is the world reference on IDP statistics, featuring trends and thematic analyses, country and regional spotlights. NRC Geneva and IDMC are now looking to establish framework agreements with professional website development companies for ongoing maintenance support as well as for specific new development projects related to the IDMC website.

Purpose of the consultancy. The primary aim of this consultancy is to engage a highly skilled and experienced professional or firm to undertake the critical task of designing and supervising the implementation of solar- powered water pumping systems in a community/various communities across Lebanon. This consultancy plays a pivotal role in the success of the project, with responsibilities encompassing several key areas: • Comprehensive Planning and Design: The consultant will be responsible for developing an all-encompassing plan for the solar-powered water pumping systems. This involves creating detailed designs that are not only technically sound but also optimized for efficiency and sustainability. The design process will require a deep understanding of solar power technology, water pumping mechanics, and the integration of these systems in a manner that is both practical and cost-effective. • Site Assessments: A critical component of the consultancy is conducting thorough site assessments. This involves evaluating potential locations for the installation of the solar water pumping systems–if the location is not already specified by Solidarités International at the outset taking into account factors such as solar irradiance, ground conditions, water table depth, accessibility, and the specific water needs of each community. These assessments are crucial in ensuring that the systems are installed in the most suitable locations for maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
