**General Information**:
- Project: MX046
- Duty Station: Mexico City, Mexico
- Contract Duration: 22 June ********* February ****
- Consultant Level: Level 2
- Total Fees: $10,000 USD
**Project Background**:
The Paris Agreement on climate change came into force in ****.
Among its objectives are keeping the increase in the integral average temperature well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, with efforts to limit it to 1.5°C, as well as increasing the capacity to adapt to the adverse effects of climate change and strengthening resilience.
Climate change represents one of the main threats to sustainable development, with increasingly evident impacts at the global, regional, and local levels.
Given the growing intensification of its effects, the generation and strategic use of reliable scientific information becomes fundamental for anticipating risks, guiding decisions, and designing effective public policies for adaptation and mitigation.
Internationally, climate scenarios have evolved into essential tools for projecting future climate conditions and assessing potential impacts on key sectors and vulnerable populations.
In particular, the projections developed within the framework of the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report (1)(AR6), based on Socioeconomic Shared Pathways (SSPs), allow for the exploration of alternative futures that consider factors such as economic growth, levels of inequality,



technological and demographic change, and greenhouse gas emissions.
These projections, prepared by more than 40 scientific institutions within the framework of the Project of Intercomparison of Coupled Models (CMIP) are developed using standardized methodologies that ensure comparability and robustness.
In this sense, climate projections are a key input for decision-making.
Vulnerability and adaptation assessments inform technical analysis, support climate education, and promote informed dialogue with political and social actors.
In Mexico, one of the main challenges is translating this specialized knowledge into useful, disaggregated, and territorially relevant information, especially at the state and municipal levels.
This requires digital tools that allow for the accessible, interactive, and evidence-based visualization and understanding of climate risk at local scales.
To achieve this, a geospatial platform is essential.
This platform should function as a technical and public interface capable of integrating, processing, and visualizing historical, observed, and projected climate data with a territorial and sectoral focus.
This platform will be a key component for informing climate risk analysis across the country's various sectors and regions, and will serve as a technical input for the development and implementation of the National Adaptation Policy (ADAPTAMX).
Through the ADAPTAMX construction process,



the National Institute of Ecology and Climate Change is developing the "National Climate Risk and Adaptation Platform" to have an updated tool with the best information on the observed and projected impacts of climate change, in order to prioritize sectors and regions of the country that may be most affected and thus have a tool for anticipatory decision-making and planning.
In this context, we require the hiring of a consultant with experience in programming, climate data management, and geospatial tools, as well as experience in interactive visualization.
Their role will be to establish the technical foundation for improving and expanding the functionality of this platform, incorporating features for statistical analysis, spatial homogenization, integration of climate scenarios, and the development of dynamic visualizations that allow for clear and effective communication of current and future climate conditions at the municipal level.
This work is strategic for advancing towards informed, territorially based climate risk management that supports decision-making.
**Objectives of the Assignment**:
Support in strengthening INECC's capacities to assess climate risk and prioritize the implementation of adaptation actions throw the enhancement of the National Climate Risk and Adaptation Platform by processing, standardizing and analytically expanding the already integrated climate database that will generate new interoperable technical inputs oriented towards the analysis of climate threats, sectoral impacts and continuous scaling of the platform.
**Deliverables and Payment Schedule**:
The Individual Consultant shall support in strengthening the national climate risk and adaptation platform by conducting the following
