ABOUT LAW   
Legal Action Worldwide (LAW) is an independent non-profit association comprised of human rights lawyers and jurists united in our belief that those who have experienced human rights violations and international crimes should receive targeted, survivor-centred, gender-competent and trauma-informed support to access the justice they deserve. LAW’s team operates on the ground in conflict-affected contexts combining national and international expertise. We work directly with survivors and their communities, building their capacity to meaningfully engage with justice and advocacy processes. Alongside this, we provide technical assistance to strengthen justice institutions to ensure they are equipped to deliver justice and work with legislators to promote accountability and the rule of law.  
 
Across 18 countries, LAW implements creative accountability and justice strategies, including strategic litigation at national, regional and international levels. LAW’s vision is “a world where all victims and survivors have access to justice, so that impunity is not a barrier to sustainable peace.”
 
THE ROLE
LAW is implementing an EU-funded program ‘Enhanced Community Engagement of Sudanese Women and Girls for Justice and Sustainable Peace’ aimed at strengthening access to justice and accountability for victims and survivors of human rights violations and abuses, with particular attention to victims of conflict-related sexual violence in Adre, Chad and Khartoum, Sudan. LAW will support a local implementing partner in Sudan to provide technical support for the establishment and strengthening of women-led survivor networks to and amplified victims’ voices so that they participate meaningfully in accountability processes.

LAW is seeking the services of a consultant/organisation with in-depth experience in survivor movement building and trauma-informed approaches to provide technical support and guidance for the consultations, formalisation of the networks of survivors, design and facilitation of training, collective healing approaches, and sustainable advocacy structures.
