Movement building

WoMin is looking to employ an experienced, passionate womxn who explicitly identifies as feminist, has supported and stood with movements of dispossessed people (especially womxn), and holds a radical vision and practice that goes beyond conventional mainstream liberal and gender mainstream thinking. This post gives leadership to WoMin’s African Ecofeminist Development Alternatives programme which aims to document, research, propose and support campaigning for African Ecofeminist Development Alternatives as a counter to the dominant extractivist model of development, implemented by the WoMin African Alliance with partners and allies across the continent.

The successful candidate will:

Support Ecofeminist Dialogues to Dream and Imagine a different community, society and Africa at the local, national, regional and continental scales.
Lead the AEDA programme and contribute to the wider organisation’s internal processes and projects as required by the long-term strategy, plans and leadership needs.
Concretely support the ‘YES’ in deepening resistance efforts.
Advance the protection of The Commons as key component of the Alternatives.
Build, recognise and advance ‘living’ African Ecofeminist Development Alternatives.

The profile of the candidate:
The successful candidate will have a minimum of 10 years’ working and activist experience in some or all the areas of responsibility outlined in the job profile. It is essential that the person carries a strong feminist identity and has proven experience of work to advance womxn’s rights through struggles. Experience in the building of information materials for community activists, and an ability to design and facilitate political and popular/feminist formation work is critical. They should be able to evidence their contributions to building networks and platforms of convergence with a wide range of allies and partners and should have between 2-3 years’ experience in campaigns building and advocacy. We actively look for someone who has some experience of programmes/projects development, management, and coordination, and can write reports, concept notes and proposals. They should have the ability to work in a team, meet deadlines, problem-solve with others, and work with full accountability to peers, alliance members and local movements/formations.

Personal qualities we seek:
The successful candidate will have a participatory and democratic leadership style but be able to act decisively and firmly when needed. They should have an ability to work under pressure and be willing to work beyond official working hours. The person should be self-motivated and be able to take initiative. They will also be organised and accurate and have high integrity and respect for confidentiality. Above all, the successful candidate will have a powerful commitment to social justice and identify as a feminist who links womxn’s oppression to capitalism and colonialism.

Gender-based violence (GBV) Movement building

The Women Gaining Ground (WGG) consortium is seeking the services of a research company, consultancy, collective, or a team of research consultants with expertise in Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) to conduct a multi-country External End Evaluation (ETE) to fulfill the reporting requirements of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Power of Women grant instrument. The purpose of the ETE is for WGG partners to learn more about the context of the consortium’s work in the timeframe 2021-2025 through an analysis of change, shifts, and transformation that has taken place, to validate and/ or challenge our theory of change, and reflect on progress, impact, and learning, as well as evidence for planning future work and sustainability, at the closing of this program.

The Women Gaining Ground (WGG) is a Global South-led consortium of three organizations with deep experience in feminist leadership, movement-building, advocacy, and working with marginalized groups: CREA, Akili Dada; and International Women's Rights Action Watch Asia Pacific (IWRAW Asia Pacific). The WGG is collaborating in a five-year program (2021-2025) and works with strategic partners in five priority countries: India, Bangladesh, Kenya, Rwanda, and Uganda.

WGG builds the capacity and transformative leadership of young women and girls and women with disabilities (WWDs) through the creation of cross-movement alliances between new women leaders and diverse women’s rights movements to develop a shared vision and common agenda.

Through the External End Evaluation, the WGG intends to deepen our learning and understanding of what approaches and strategies have been effective in creating change and transformation, what change and transformation has taken place, to understand the effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability of the program implemented by the WGG consortium and how it has supported and brought about change through feminist movement building.

We are looking for skilled feminist evaluation consultants and researchers who are deeply committed to and have experience working with anti-colonial, participatory, and feminist research methodologies and programme evaluations of cross-regional initiatives. We particularly welcome applications from individuals and teams with experience working in or with feminist and disability rights social movements, especially individuals or teams located in the Global South and/or East, and/or lived experience of injustice or other forms of systemic oppression (including but not limited to sexism, racism, homo-antagonism, trans-antagonism, classism and ableism – and their intersections).

Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR) Health

The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected.

About the position

The purpose of this position is to provide strategic direction and technical assistance to Plan International and partners’ work on Protection from Violence and/or Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights for a number of countries in Africa (Benin, Togo and Zambia). The position will play a key role in ensuring that Plan International’s work together with partner organisations are informed by and delivered in accordance with international standards and programming while simultaneously strengthening the role and capacity of civil society partner organisations.

The advisor will help to position Plan International and partner organisations in the main regional and national policy processes on the rights of children and youth, and gender equality. In particular the focus will be on PfV and/or SRHR, accompany country offices’ staff and partners to define priorities, strategies, objectives and key messages of influence in different forums, and support capacity building of staff and partners and participate in Plan International's global work.

The role will entail significant collaboration with Plan International’s Country Offices, Regional and Global Hubs and partner organisations as well as with the Thematic Advisors and Programme Specialists at Plan International Sweden. The regional advisor will also collaborate with the Regional Civil Society Strengthening Advisor in providing strategic support for Plan’s engagement with and strengthening of civil society organisations and youth engagement.

The position will also support the scaling-up of Plan International’s work on PfV and/or SRHR, through building and securing strategic partnerships, resource mobilisation, knowledge management and organisational learning, evidence-based advocacy and external representation in regional forums.

Technical expertise, skills and knowledge

At a minimum a Bachelor’s degree and preferably a Master’s degree in social sciences or health sciences.
At least five years of experience in Protection from Violence and/or Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights, including in-depth knowledge of standards and programming and the international legal/policy framework related to the thematic areas.
Demonstrated experience in advocacy and influencing actions in the national, regional and/or global context.
Experience of supporting local civil society organisations, groups and/or young people and providing them with capacity development support.
Strong knowledge of child rights, youth participation, civil society strengthening, human rights-based approach to development programming, and demonstrated experience in gender and non-discrimination.

Experience working internationally and across diverse cultures and contexts.
