Scope of work

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is currently implementing “Resilient Democracy through Anti-Corruption” (REDACT) Project that requires the services of an experienced International Co-Facilitator (hereinafter “the Consultant”) under Output 1, specifically for the Activity 1.2. Implement a continuous skill-development program for law enforcement officers on detecting, disrupting, and investigating corruption cases, including those related to electoral integrity and illicit political finance, with a focus on forensic evidence collection, crime analysis, and investigative methodologies, in line with international standards.

In this context, UNDP Moldova is currently seeking to contract a team of national and international facilitators to conduct a specialized training course on electoral corruption and illicit political finance, aimed at strengthening the capacities of investigators, prosecutors, and judges in Republic of Moldova.

As part of its objectives, the REDACT Project aims at enhancing the knowledge and ability of law enforcement officers to detect, disrupt, and investigate cases of electoral corruption and illicit political finance, with a focus on forensic evidence collection, crime analysis, and investigative methodologies, in line with international standards. At the same time, it seeks to strengthen the capacity of prosecutors and judges to effectively handle such cases, ensuring responsiveness to existing challenges, emerging needs, and evolving legal frameworks.

Therefore, a blended training course is planned to be conducted in partnership with the National Institute of Justice (hereinafter NIJ) targeting professionals from key institutions, including the National Anticorruption Center, General Prosecutor’s Office, Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office, Prosecutor’s Office for Combating Organized Crime and Special Cases, General Police Inspectorate, Office for Prevention and Fight Against Money Laundering, and the judicial actors. It shall combine theoretical sessions with practical simulations and real case examples, ensuring participants not only acquire knowledge, but also apply it in realistic investigative and courtroom scenarios.

Beyond addressing immediate capacity gaps, the training course will contribute to updating the existing NIJ’s continuous education framework. The Project will engage a team of national and international facilitators conduct a set of 5 full-day specialized trainings (one day training multiplied to 5 groups) on electoral corruption and illicit political finance, to strengthen the capacities of investigators, prosecutors, and judges in Republic of Moldova.
