Child protection/ Children’s rights GBV / VAWGPurpose of the ConsultancyThe purpose of this consultancy is to provide timely, high-quality technical support to the WHO Egypt Country Office (WCO) in advancing work related to Violence against Women (VAW) and Violence against Children (VAC) within the scope of health system strengthening.The consultant will support the adaptation of WHO technical guidance, conduct readiness assessments, contribute to capacity-building efforts, and provide technical coordination with relevant national stakeholders, particularly the Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP), the Egypt Healthcare Authority, and other relevant actors. The work will aim to strengthen the health sector response to VAW and VAC in line with national systems, WHO standards, and survivor-centred approaches.
BackgroundWHO Egypt Country Office prioritizes the strengthening of resilient, equitable, and responsive health systems that can address violence and safeguarding the rights and well-being of women and children across all levels of care.
In alignment with WHO’s Fourteenth General Programme of Work (GPW 14) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality), WHO Egypt recognizes that health emergencies and health system gaps disproportionately affect women, children, and other vulnerable groups.
VAW and VAC are major public health and human rights concerns that contribute to significant physical, mental, social, and long-term health consequences. The health system plays a critical role in the early identification, first-line support, clinical management, documentation, referral, and prevention of violence. Evidence also shows that the risks of violence often increase during public health emergencies, including pandemics, outbreaks, and displacement-related crises. In the absence of integrated preparedness and response mechanisms, survivors may face delayed or inadequate access to essential services.
In Egypt, progress has been made in strengthening national frameworks and multisectoral responses related to women’s and children’s protection. However, important gaps remain in standardizing the health sector response, strengthening provider capacity, improving referral and reporting pathways, and integrating violence prevention and response into emergency preparedness and health service delivery structures.Work to be performedOutput 1: Support health system strengthening efforts through adaptation of technical guidance, readiness assessment, and capacity-building support for VAW/VAC responseOutput 2: Provide technical and coordination support to WHO Egypt on VAW/VAC-related priorities during the consultancy period.Deliverable 2.1: Provide technical support to WHO Egypt and support stakeholder coordination, meetings, and technical documentation.Deliverable 2.2: Submit monthly progress updates and a final consultancy report.
Specific requirementsMinimum first level university degree in public health, medicine, nursing, psychology, social sciences, gender studies, protection, mental health, or another relevant field.
5 to 10 years of relevant experience in public health, GBV/VAW/VAC, child protection, mental health, or health systems strengthening; experience with ministries of health and technical coordination.
Strong technical understanding of VAW/VAC and health sector responses; analytical/reporting skills; stakeholder coordination; facilitation and workshop support.Excellent knowledge of English and Arabic.*When clicking on “Apply”, you will be redirected to the original job announcement and details
