Activity 1: Increasing the number of UNVIM Monitors. Up to five (5) additional monitors and up to two (2) additional cargo inspectors will be recruited for Djibouti, King Abdullah Port and Jeddah (KSA), Salalah and Sohar (Oman), Dubai (UAE) ports or for any other locations, including tentatively Hodeydah. This increase in capacity would allow UNVIM to adjust quickly to any developments and increase UNVIM's operational reach to conduct vessel inspections whilst ensuring UNVIM's operational continuity. UNVIM will also recruit one additional officer based in Djibouti who will inter alia liaise with the EU and in particular the EU Delegations in the Red Sea region.

Planned activities are as follows:

• UNOPS will recruit the new monitors, inspectors and officer in accordance with the UNOPS recruitment rules and procedures,

• UNOPS will pre-inform the EEAS of any opening of positions.

Timeline: throughout the duration of the project.
