UNDP is currently working in various areas concerning sustainable development, from systems and institutional strengthening to inclusive growth and sustainable livelihoods, as well as sustainable energy, environment, and resilience. The Energy, Environment and Resilience (EER) Unit at UNDP is organized around the thematic areas of climate change adaptation and mitigation; natural resource management, biodiversity conservation, ecosystem restoration, disaster management and resilience, and access to clean and efficient energy.

While India is on track to achieve some of its NDC targets on emission intensity and non-fossil fuel-based energy installations, there remain significant bottlenecks such as lack of cutting-edge climate technology for the transition to low carbon pathways; and for innovative and inclusive solutions for building adaptive capacity of vulnerable communities to cope with climate change. To this end, UNDP is implementing a project, funded by the Japan Supplementary Budget (JSB). The Net Zero emissions project aims to support transition to a low carbon economy, to support sustainable and inclusive development, to identify and create livelihood provisions (and green jobs) and to build climate resilience of the vulnerable communities. In India, the project will undertake strategic, sector-specific interventions in 10 states, including Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Bihar, Odisha, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Uttarakhand and Sikkim.

The Biodiversity and Ecosystem Restoration programme of UNDP is supporting the Government of India in meeting national development objectives along with commitments under important multilateral environment agreements especially the Convention on Biological Diversity. The technical and policy support provided by the programme focus on institutional strengthening and building capacities to utilize natural resources in a sustainable way, while increasing resilience to climate variability and associated risks and impacts.

UNDP seeks to engage an Environmental & Legal Research Intern to provide support to the climate adaptation natural resource management teams through background research and documentation on legal and policy work. The Intern will report to the Head, Climate Adaptation, Natural Resources and Biodiversity, UNDP India, and shall be closely working with the other team members.

**Duties and Responsibilities**:
Under the guidance Head, Climate Adaptation, Natural Resource and Biodiversity, UNDP India, the intern is expected to:

? Contribute towards furthering the priorities of UNDP and Government of India towards international commitments such as UNFCCC, UNCCD and CBD within the purview of the project.
