**INTRODUCTION TO GGGI**:
The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) is a treaty-based international, inter-governmental organization dedicated to supporting and promoting strong, inclusive and sustainable economic growth in developing countries and emerging economies. To learn more please visit about GGGI web page.

**GENERAL INFORMATION**:
The Project Assistant plays a crucial role in providing coordination and technical support for the implementation of the UKPACT GGGI´s programs Energy and Bioeconomy projects in Colombia. Their contribution ensures the smooth running of the Projects in close coordination with the GGGI Colombia administrative team and in liaison with relevant stakeholders at the national level.

As a member of the project team, the Project Assistant will have the opportunity to contribute to the implementation of the UKPACT GGGI´s programs in Colombia. This includes the development of program and resource mobilization documentation, communication campaigns and material, knowledge sharing material, desk research, and organization of national events. The role also involves liaison with technical Ministries and other stakeholders in the Renewable Energy & Bioeconmy fields, providing a unique opportunity for professional growth and networking. Additionally, the Project Assistant will support data collection activities, enhancing their analytical and research skills.

**PROJECT BACKGROUND**:
GGGI has a diverse portfolio of programs in developing countries around the world. Together with global products and services, these in-country programs focus on delivering results through an integrated approach of evidence-based green growth planning and implementation aligned to "countries" development priorities. The organization also focuses on knowledge development and management activities, which build a solid theoretical and empirical basis for green growth while providing concrete options and guidance for policymakers, as well as creating the conditions for public and private green infrastructure investments.

GGGI has been working with the Government of Colombia to advance green growth policies and green investments through strategic partnerships such as with the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development, the Ministry

of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Ministry of Treasury and Public Credit, and the National Planning Department (DNP), among others. Since 2014, GGGI has supported the DNP in its objective of advancing a green growth vision and transition plan for Colombia that can support climate goals and SDGs achievement. GGGI supported the development of the Green Growth Taskforce led by DNP (2016-2018), which produced solid and relevant information for the design and concertation of the Green Growth Policy
- GGP (adopted by means of CONPES 3934 of 2018).

One strategic axis of the GGP aims to promote the sustainable use of natural capital, which includes the Bioeconomy as one key strategy to foster the low carbon economy through adding value to generate products, processes, and services based on responsible use of biodiversity and biomass. In that regard, GGGI supported the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation - MinCiencias, the National Planning Department, and other stakeholders in the technical design and concertation of the National Bioeconomy Mission _“Para una Colombia Potencia viva y diversa: hacia una Sociedad impulsada por el conocimiento_.”

In that regard, GGGI has been granted three consecutive times for implementing the project “Accelerating the development of new bioeconomy businesses and enhanced capacities for green jobs promotion and increased climate action ambition from policy implementation and integration” (CO26), in which a Bioeconomy Accelerator Mechanism
- MAPBIO was created, as well as a Bioeconomy Taskforce and Open Innovation Challenges. In this current phase of the UKPACT cooperation, a new cohort of MAPBIO is supporting two bioproducts, an additional open innovation challenge in biopesticides was launched, and phase two of the Bioeconomy Taskforce is in the readiness phase for supporting the implementation of the Bioeconomy mission, especially with three of the most relevant Ministries involved which are the MinCiencias, the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development - MinAmbiente, and the Ministry of Commerce, Tourism and Industry - MinComercio.

In addition, in March 2023, the Global Green Growth Institute was awarded funding by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office of the government of the United Kingdom to continue with the third phase of the project, "Scaling up rural electrification via capacity building to public and private actors" (CO27). The project delivers demand-driven technical assistance to the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), the Institute for Planning and Promotion of Energy Solutions for Non-Interconnected Areas (IPSE), subnational entities, and selected private-sector developers to deploy s
