The research will be guided by the Leave No One Behind (LNOB) principle and a strong socioeconomic perspective. The assignment will contribute to SDG-centric research papers focusing on the KSA context, support updates to the UN Country Analysis (UNCA) with evidence-based inputs, and undertake other related ad hoc analytical activities that inform policy engagement, programming, and strategic decision-making. ________________________________________ Duties and Responsibilities Under the direct supervision of the Head of the RC Office and the RCO Economist, the Research Consultant will: 1.

Identify international and regional good practices that can be adapted to the KSA context, emphasizing LNOB, inclusive growth, and sustainability. 4. Prepare a structured research matrix summarizing key findings, data gaps, and actionable insights across thematic areas. 5. Develop an annotated outline for the analytical paper, integrating cross-sector linkages, socioeconomic considerations, and policy implications. 6. Draft initial versions of SDG-centric research papers for consultation with UN KSA and relevant stakeholders. 7. Revise and finalize research papers based on feedback, ensuring alignment with national priorities, the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF), and global best practices. 8. Provide substantive analytical inputs to the UN Common Country Analysis (CCA) update, ensuring integration of the latest socioeconomic and SDG-related data. 9. Undertake related ad hoc analytical assignments, as requested, that support policy development, advocacy, and programming on SDG implementation in the KSA context. 10.
