project activities, facilitate the interagency coordination process, and disseminate the project’s progress and
achievements. Local Advisory Committee representatives will meet twice a year in San Lorenzo.
The project’s technical aspects will be implemented by PMU under the supervision of PROFONANPE. PMU will: (a)
implement the project according to the grant agreement, project document, annual operational plan and procurement
plan; (b) prepare the above-mentioned plans; (c) carry out the monitoring of objectives and targets outlined by the
project; (d) provide overall assistance to local stakeholders for project implementation; (e) prepare and submit to the
PAC the operational plans and management reports; (f) prepare the technical documents, terms of reference, and other
relevant documentation required to carry out the procurement and contracting of goods and services; and (g) organize
meetings with the project’s Technical Committee to obtain technical assistance and stakeholders as required.
PROFONANPE will appoint a Project Manager to lead PMU. This manager will be in charge of overall project direction
and have the primary responsibility of meeting the project’s general objectives and results. The Project Manager will be
in charge of developing the terms of reference for technical studies, participating in procurement processes, preparing
annual operational plans and progress reports that may be required by PAC, conducting the necessary coordination
and communications with counterparts and other relevant agencies as required, and in general ensuring the proper
implementation and monitoring of project interventions. The Project Manager, based in the field, will carry out and
supervise field activities.
The Project Manager will be supported by three professional staff covering three areas of work: natural resources
management, bio-businesses, and sociocultural and capacity-building aspects. These professionals will support the
Project Manager in implementing project activities in all communities of the region, provide feedback and review of
technical studies, and complement these with technical documents needed in discussions and reviews of plans
developed at the provincial or territorial unit level across the region.
The field team will be supported by two senior professionals covering the areas of (a) climate change analysis and (b)
knowledge management with M&E. The CC analyst will provide assistance to PMU regarding CO2 emissions reduction
monitoring and the implementation of adaptation measures to CC within local communities. He/she will be involved in
activities related to the development/updating of CC strategies, where his/her knowledge and skills on this subject will
be transferred. The field team will have two staff members to provide support for administrative tasks as well as for
transport. PMU will have a Local Advisory Committee with recognized experts in the culture of indigenous communities
as well as with Amazonian livelihoods. The committee will meet by request of the field office to comment and provide
advice on specific issues that may arise during project implementation. As it has been planned, the project
implementation would not require additional contract arrangements with other implementing partners.
Beneficiaries include two main groups: (a) government institutions and officials, including district and provincial
municipalities as well as regional and ministry levels; and (b) local representatives, including indigenous communities,
producers’ associations, indigenous federations, local management committees, and community surveillance
committees. The project will act as a facilitator and supporter of activities that the local beneficiaries will implement at
government and indigenous community levels.
Additionally, in order to ensure the project is in line with the country’s climate change-related priorities and development
plans, the Ministry of Environment of Peru, principally, through its Climate Change, Water and Desertification Office will
permanently participate during the project’s formulation, implementation and monitoring; in coordination with other
relevant offices within the Ministry.
