Introduction
Description of the Assignment:
The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), through the Free Public Internet Access Program (FPIAP), aims to deliver inclusive, reliable internet connectivity to underserved and geographically isolated communities across the Philippines. As the program expands, institutionalizing it as a regular service within DICT has become critical to ensure long-term sustainability, efficiency, and accountability.
DICT FPIAP has developed an initial institutionalization roadmap; however, it requires refinement and alignment with Philippine government processes, including those of the Department of Budget and Management (DBM), Civil Service Commission (CSC), and the General Appropriations Act (GAA), to ensure readiness for implementation.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core principles at UNDP: we value diversity as an expression of the multiplicity of nations and cultures where we operate, we foster inclusion as a way of ensuring all personnel are empowered to contribute to our mission, and we ensure equity and fairness in all our actions. Taking a ‘leave no one behind’ approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations. People who identify as belonging to marginalized or excluded populations are strongly encouraged to apply.
UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender, nationality and culture. Women, individuals from minority groups, indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence.
UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks.
