Organisations like the African Development Bank, Asian Development Bank, European Commission, GIZ and World Bank use their own CV formats.
If you're interested in consulting roles, you can save time by keeping a base CV up-to-date and copying the information you need over to each specific CV (or using the [paid] service of developmentaid.org to do this automatically for you).
If you don't have such a CV already, here's an all-in-one Consulting CV Template that I've put together to help you.
