The Central Administration of Statistics (CAS) is the national statistical office of Lebanon. In 2021, CAS published “The Life of Women and Men in Lebanon: A Statistical Portrait” as a result of partnership between (UNDP) and (CAS) lebanon, covering the period 2004–2019. The report provided a foundational overview of gender disparities in Lebanon using available national and administrative data sources. To build upon this foundation and strengthen the national evidence base on gender equality CAS, UNICEF, and UN Women in Lebanon are joining forces to undertake a new gender statistical profiling exercise. The objective is to compile, analyze and interpret gender-related data to identify key trends, patterns, and underlying causes of gender inequalities. The findings will be presented in a comprehensive new report covering the period 2019 to 2025 which will provide robust, interpretive evidence to inform policy and programming. 

To lead this effort, a consultant will be recruited to work closely with CAS, in coordination with UNICEF and UN Women. The consultant’s primary role is to support CAS in compiling and analyzing the available gender-related data and in drafting a comprehensive statistical report on the situation of women and girls in Lebanon. The report will cover key thematic areas such as education, health, protection, labor force participation, decision-making, and access to services, among others. This partnership directly supports CAS in fulfilling its mandate as the national statistical office to produce and disseminate official, high-quality gender statistics. It strengthens CAS's institutional capacity to monitor national and international gender-related commitments, including the SDGs and CEDAW. The collaboration ensures national ownership of the data and enhances the sustainability and use of the national statistical system for gender-responsive planning and monitoring. This consultancy will thus contribute to strengthening the national evidence base on gender and support data-informed policy and programming for advancing the rights and wellbeing of women and girls in Lebanon.
