GBV / VAWG Migration

Introduction

Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations and the leading UN agency in the field of migration. Working closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners, IOM promotes humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It saves lives and protects people on the move, drives solutions to displacement, and facilitates pathways for regular migration, while providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

Project Context and Scope:

Vanuatu is highly vulnerable to natural hazards including tropical cyclones, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, droughts, flooding, and other climate-induced disasters. During emergencies and displacement situations, women, girls, persons with disabilities, and other vulnerable groups face heightened risks of Gender-Based Violence (GBV), including sexual exploitation and abuse, domestic violence, and other protection risks.

IOM, with technical and financial support from UN Women, is currently implementing a project to ensure that evacuation centres are safe, accessible, and responsive to the needs of women and girls, and other vulnerable groups. This work is supported by UN Women through the Pacific Partnership to End Violence Against Women (Pacific Partnership) programme, funded primarily by the Government of Australia, and the European Union, and coordinated by UN Women and the Pacific Community (SPC), in strategic partnership with the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF).

As part of this process, IOM and UN Women will review and update the GBV and Protection Risk Mitigation Guidelines for Evacuation Centres, , and produce Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials that promote GBV prevention, mitigation, reporting pathways, and survivor-centred approaches and develop and deliver training material to strengthen the capacity of stakeholders.

Qualifications

Education, Experience and/or skills required:

Advanced university degree (Master's degree preferred) in Gender Studies, Social Sciences, Development Studies, Human Rights, Public Health, Disaster Risk Reduction, Humanitarian Action, International Development, Law, Communications, or a related field.
Minimum 7 years of progressively responsible professional experience in gender equality, protection, GBV prevention and response, humanitarian programming, disaster risk reduction, or emergency management.
Demonstrated experience in the development, review, and revision of GBV, protection, or humanitarian guidelines, policies, standards, and operational tools.
Proven experience in Gender-Based Violence in Emergencies (GBViE) programming, including prevention, risk mitigation, survivor-centred approaches, and coordination mechanisms.
Experience integrating gender equality, disability inclusion, child protection, safeguarding, and protection principles into humanitarian and disaster preparedness initiatives.
Demonstrated experience working with government agencies, humanitarian actors, civil society organizations, women's organizations, and community stakeholders.
Experience facilitating stakeholder consultations, workshops, validation meetings, and technical review processes.
Capacity to work independently and with minimal supervision;

Career category: Information Technology (IT), Research/ Data analysis
Job type: Consultancy
Experience level: Other (specified in job description)

Remote option: Remote (global)
Right to work requirements: Anyone can apply
Remuneration: EUR 15,000 EUR / Budget
Length of contract: Temporary/ Fixed-term

Digital rights Health Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR)

Background

IPPF is a global SRHR service provider and advocate, a movement of national Member Associations (MAs) in 150+ countries, supported by a central Secretariat and six regional offices. IPPF EN is the regional office for Europe and Central Asia.

AI is an IPPF priority for 2026–27. EN has already set the scene (a Use of AI in IPPF EN Publications standard, an AI-for-research tools database, an in-house MEL AI system, and a Federation-wide AI inventory). Global PLI now commissions Federation-wide AI-for-research guidance, piloted in EN, as the template for future MEL-function guidance (2027). The pilot runs in EN due to existing alignment and co-funding for the MA mapping. A wealth of AI-for-research guidance already exists externally (universities, funders, charities, think tanks, publishers) - the consultant adapts it to IPPF’s values, context and governance rather than starting from scratch.

Scope of Work

Inception: agree the definitive in/out list of research tasks, tool access (incl. whether a locally run/offline model is needed), the mapping instrument, good-practice source list, and reference-group/validation calendar.
Service-user-data boundary: aggregated data is in scope; client-level records/interview material are out of scope (Confidential/High-risk under the Data Classification Framework; special-category under GDPR Art. 9). The guidance states the boundary and the route to lift it later (named use case, DPIA, ethics/DPO/MA sign-off, in-house model).
Mapping A (EN MAs): structured interviews with 6–8 purposively sampled MAs plus EN Secretariat, 2–3 task walkthroughs, and an EN-wide short survey; non-punitive framing; produces a risk/mitigation matrix. Good practice named only with consent; shadow use, incidents and risks never attributed.
Mapping B (other 5 regions): one-to-one consultations with two MAs per region on current practice and support needs.
Guidance development: builds on a rapid desk review of external AI-for-research guidance; enabling and principles-first (sanctioned toolset incl. locally run models, prohibited uses/red lines aligned to the Data Classification Framework, human-in-the-loop as default control); plain language, modular, with decision trees, comparison tables and one-page cheat sheets.
Cross-jurisdiction framework: consultant aligns with EU AI Act, OECD, UNESCO, Council of Europe and WHO standards; IPPF Legal/DPO supply the legal sign-off (GDPR, POPIA, LGPD, etc.).
Stakeholder validation (2 workshops) and Membership adaptation tooling: MA-adaptable format for later cross-region validation (optional contract extension).

Consultant profile, Submission & Evaluation

Eligibility:

Relevant degree/experience; track record producing practical guidance/policy for multi-country or federated organisations;
AI and research-methods expertise able to translate technical material for non-specialists;
Familiarity with the external AI-in-research guidance landscape;
Experience designing organizational mappings/needs assessments and facilitating participatory online workshops;
Familiarity with IT/data-protection governance across regions;
Safeguarding/research-ethics awareness; strong written English;
SRHR/international development experience as an asset.

Climate & Environmental justice Economic justice

Background
Women in Nasarawa State play a critical role in agriculture, trade, micro-enterprises, household care, and community development. Despite their significant contributions to local economies, women continue to face multiple barriers that limit their economic participation and resilience. These barriers include constrained access to finance and credit, limited ownership and control of land and productive assets, inadequate access to markets and enterprise support services, unequal access to digital technologies, and a disproportionate burden of unpaid care and domestic work.

Climate change is further exacerbating these challenges by affecting agricultural productivity, increasing livelihood vulnerabilities, disrupting market systems, and reducing income-generating opportunities for women and their households. In rural communities such as Nasarawa Eggon Local Government Area, climate-related shocks including erratic rainfall, flooding, land degradation, and declining natural resources have significant implications for women's economic security and decision-making power.

To support evidence-based programming and policy advocacy aimed at advancing women's economic empowerment and climate resilience, Women Environmental Programme (WEP) seeks to engage a qualified consultant to undertake a Gender-Climate-Resilient Economic Analysis in Nasarawa State, with a specific focus on Nasarawa Eggon LGA. The study will assess the barriers and opportunities affecting women's economic participation and examine how climate change impacts women's livelihoods, enterprises, and economic resilience.
Objectives of the Assignment
The overall objective of the assignment is to conduct a Gender-Climate-Resilient Economic Analysis that generates evidence on the barriers, opportunities, and climate-related challenges affecting women's economic empowerment in Nasarawa State, particularly Nasarawa Eggon Local Government Area, and to identify practical recommendations for strengthening inclusive and resilient livelihoods.

Scope of Work
The consultant is expected to design and apply mixed-methods, gender-responsive and disability inclusive methodology to undertake the following tasks:
• Desk review of relevant secondary data on climate, livelihoods, gender and disability inclusion, financial inclusion, agriculture and market systems in Nigeria and Nasarawa State.
• Household and enterprise-level survey with women, including women with disabilities, disaggregated by sex, age and disability.
• Key informant interviews with market actors, financial institutions, government bodies, community leaders and women's rights organizations.
• Focus group discussions with women farmers, women-led MSMEs, VSLA members, young women and women with disabilities, using accessible and safe formats.

Application Eligibility Applicants must:
• Have a minimum of five years of relevant professional experience in gender, climate resilience, livelihoods or economic research.
• Demonstrate expertise in gender analysis, climate-vulnerability assessment or related economic research methods.
• Have familiarity with Nasarawa State or similar contexts in North Central Nigeria.
• Have excellent analytical and report-writing skills in English.
• Be available to complete the assignment within 6 weeks of contract signing, including field work in Nasarawa State, with special focus on Nasarawa Eggon LGA.
• Be committed to safeguarding, inclusion and ethical research practice.
• Be compliant with relevant national laws and regulations.

Gender equality and Social inclusion (GESI) Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH)

The purpose of the consultancy is to provide the technical, facilitation and knowledge-management support that enables ASWA and other UNICEF country programmes to increasingly integrate gender-intentional approaches in their WASH programmes, while consolidating, disseminating and advocating with the evidence and practice on gender-equitable WASH generated through ASWA implementation.

The Accelerating Sanitation and Water for All (ASWA) programme supports 8 countries [Mali, Nigeria, Niger, Cote D’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Mozambique, Tanzania and Somalia] strengthen WASH systems and accelerate progress toward universal access. The absence of gender-sensitive policies in the WASH sector leaves unaddressed the disproportionate WASH-related workload that falls on women and girls: physical burden and time loss from water collection, heightened risk of violence and harassment when travelling away from home, care burdens linked to unsafe water and poor sanitation, and negative impacts on girls' school performance and retention where gender-separated sanitation and menstrual hygiene facilities are lacking. As stewards of water, women and girls also confront the impacts of climate change daily yet frequently lack decision-making power over water security decisions and finance commitments.

This consultancy provides the technical, facilitation and knowledge-management capacity to do so across three reinforcing outputs: (i) thought leadership, knowledge and evidence generation; (ii) advocacy and influence; and (iii) capacity building and technical support to country offices. As the programme moves toward consolidation, country teams need dedicated support to operationalise their gender action plans, document and learn from their work, and embed gender equality more deliberately in ASWA programming. There is also a strategic opportunity to position ASWA's gender evidence within UNICEF's broader global agenda — including the WASH-GAP 2030 — and to ensure lessons are shared across sectors and with the wider WASH community.

Education: Masters’ degree in gender studies, social sciences, public health, water and sanitation, civil engineering, international development or a related field.
Work Experience:
- At least 15 years of progressively responsible experience in WASH programming, including in integrating gender-intentional approaches in WASH programmes.
Language requirement:
- Fluency in English required;
- working knowledge of French or another UN language an asset

Skills:

• Good understanding of the global WASH international development community architecture and stakeholders, with ability to identify appropriate gender advocacy entry points.

• Experience of knowledge management, evidence generation and production of high-quality reports and knowledge products, preferably in the WASH sector.

• Experience delivering capacity building and technical assistance to country teams across multiple regions and contexts.

• Excellent facilitation, communication and advocacy skills, including representation in global interagency forums and conferences.
