Job Brief

Program Background

The SKALA Program is a significant Australian investment designed to help Indonesia address regional disparities in development. SKALA will contribute to this objective by strengthening selected elements of Indonesia’s large and complex decentralised government system responsible for the delivery of basic services (Layanan Dasar). The SKALA Program’s core approach is to facilitate better collaboration (Kolaborasi) between Indonesian government stakeholders, at national and subnational levels, to help realise synergies (Sinergi) that will trigger improved service delivery. Moreover, SKALA will build on, and take to scale, the successes and learning from Australia’s previous 17 years of support to Indonesia’s decentralised government system. The SKALA Program is to be implemented through the following three pillars:

§  Pillar 1: Stronger national level enabling environment for sub-national service delivery

§  Pillar 2: Better sub-national governance for service delivery

§  Pillar 3: Greater participation, representation and influence for women, people with disabilities and vulnerable groups

Job description

Position Description

Position: Tourism Adventure Trail Assessment

Program: Strongim Bisnis Location: Solomon Islands

Duration: Approx. 20 Days

Line manager and directly report to: Partnership Technical

Lead Works with: Tourism technical team

Background

Strongim Bisnis (SB) is an Australian Government-funded private sector development program supporting the growth of a resilient, diversified and socially inclusive economy in Solomon Islands. Through a market systems development approach, SB works with tourism businesses and other market actors to address constraints to growth, strengthen commercial opportunities and increase employment and incomes, particularly for women, youth and people with disabilities.

Although Solomon Islands has distinctive natural landscapes and community attractions, few have been developed into established, market-ready tourism trails or well-packaged visitor experiences. Potential sites often lack the basic assessment, access arrangements, safety measures, guiding, interpretation, facilities and commercial planning needed to offer a consistent experience that visitors can book and businesses can operate sustainably. There is therefore a need to assess what can realistically be developed at selected locations, and what would be required to make each experience safe, appealing and commercially viable.

Strongim Bisnis intends to assess five selected tourism trails or potential sites to determine their tourism potential and readiness for development. The assignment will examine the visitor experience, opportunities to establish or extend trails, and the practical requirements for management and commercial sustainability. It will also consider whether distinctive experiences, including volcanic landscapes, could attract specialised visitor markets or support tourism events.

The Regional Trade for Development (RT4D) initiative is funded by the Governments of Australia and New Zealand. It assists ASEAN Member States (AMS) in meeting their commitments and realising the advantages offered by the Agreement establishing the ASEAN-Australia-New Zealand Free Trade Area, or AANZFTA, and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, or RCEP.

Through the AANZFTA Implementation Support Program (AISP) and the RCEP Implementation Support Program (RISP), RT4D provides tailored support to enhance the capabilities of ASEAN Member States by strengthening skills, building networks, facilitating policy options and ensuring that trade benefits everyone, including Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), women and people with disability.

The Governments of Australia and New Zealand have committed up to AUD 53.3 million to fund RT4D from 2020–21 to 2027–28.

The Australia-Pacific Partnerships for Aviation Program (P4A), managed by Adam Smith International, invites tenders from experienced contractors to design, supply and install a temporary storage shelter for ground service equipment at Bonriki International Airport, South Tarawa, Kiribati.
