About the Issues Affecting Women Programme
All women and girls should be safe, free, and have an equal chance to thrive. Yet, every day, women experience violence and discrimination and are denied the freedom to decide how they will live. This undermines their health, safety, dignity, and independence. We find inspiration and hope in strong and vibrant movements, built, and led by women, which are transforming lives and communities across the world. Their shared purpose and collective power are advancing a more just world – in ways that protect human rights and the future of our planet. Supporting these movements to live, breathe, strengthen, and grow – by enabling women’s agency, leadership, and capacity – is at the heart of what the programme does. Visit the website for more information.

Gender-based violence (GBV)About MenEngage Alliance
MenEngage Alliance is an international social change network harnessing the collective energies of our members towards ending patriarchal power and supporting women’s rights; lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and queer (LGBTIQ) rights; and human rights—and achieving gender justice and social justice for all.
MenEngage Alliance is seeking to work with a consultant with a flair for impact-driven storytelling to develop a story of change that illustrates the story of how MenEngage Alliance, through a variety of activities and approaches, has an impact for women’s rights, gender justice, LGBTQI rights, climate justice, and social justice for all. The story of change, developed closely with the Global Secretariat and other stakeholders within MenEngage Alliance, will serve as a blueprint for a series of future stories of change to be developed on an ongoing basis.
The consultant will work with the Global Secretariat of MenEngage Alliance, as well as other key stakeholders, to identify members and activities of MenEngage Alliance, from a variety of regions of the world, to tell the story of our impacts as a social change network. Working with those members and partners of MenEngage Alliance who are identified, the consultant will unpack how their involvement in MenEngage Alliance has contributed to broader positive change along gender equality and other social justice measures.Deliverables
A single impact-driven story of change, finalized by the end of October 2024. The process and end product will be used to inform future stories of change, which we envision to expand in scope to address numerous topics above, and to showcase the diversity of regions, approaches, and people who make up MenEngage Alliance.
Insights, quotes, and anecdotal evidence should be shared regularly throughout the process, so these can be incorporated into other ongoing materials the organization produces. The length and exact format of the story of change is to be defined through the project to account for the best way of sharing what emerges from the process.
Desired Qualifications
- Excellent research, and writing skills—particularly through engaging impact-focused storytelling
- Understanding of social change networks, their role, their function, their activities/operations, and their goals/impact
- Familiarity with concepts such as intersectionality, feminism, and decolonisation – and men and masculinities (preferred)
