BACKGROUND
We are a global fund backing local leaders solving the world’s biggest challenges. We envision a future in which everyone is conscious of and builds the kind of power that brings freedom, human rights, love and care to all.

SCOPE OF WORK
The Equality Fund is seeking a consultant or a group of consultants to support the design of a stream of work supporting collective action across social movements focused on achieving gender equality. This stream, called “Connect,” aims to unite diverse actors, incentivize connections, and fund strategies and approaches that are particularly suited to feminist movement strengthening.

DELIVERABLES
The Consultant(s) will be expected to produce the following deliverables for an internal audience:

A research plan that describes the methodology, timeline, and interviewee list for the proposed work (1-2 pages).

A summary of findings from desk research and interviews gathering lessons from intentional collective efforts bringing together different strategies and actors towards a common goal (thematic or cross-thematic) (2-5 pages).

A typology of collective efforts (i.e. networks, coalitions, consortium, etc.), what are the characteristics and relative strengths and challenges of different kinds of structures and mechanisms at different levels for successful collective action (formal and informal) (1-2 pages).

Brief case studies or examples of a range of funder strategies to support or incentivise collective efforts to advance gender equality, social justice and human rights agenda. There is particular interest in learning about successful collective action across movements and sectors and efforts that resulted in meaningful action among actors that had not worked together previously (2-5 pages).

A list of funders supporting collective action across movements that we could consult with and learn from (1 page).

Recommendations for how to evolve the Connect stream to support collective organizing towards a common goal between feminist movements and other non-traditional allies, as well as suggestions for how to measure success for this stream (5-10 page).

A broad network of philanthropic entities who support collective efforts;

Understanding of philanthropic program design and call for proposals;

Strong research, interview, focus group, and writing skills;

Expertise in feminist modalities for information gathering and engaging in a consultative process with internal and external stakeholders;

Highly organized, analytical, adaptive and responsive to feedback and changes in direction when needed;

GBV / VAWG
This project explores how young people (aged 18-34) interpret and respond to public and media discourse on gender-based violence (GBV), with a focus on the identity, relational, and contextual factors that shape their engagement with prevention initiatives. It tackles the critical challenge of volatile and polarising GBV narratives, which can alienate certain groups and overlook diverse perspectives. The project seeks to generate actionable insights to enhance the effectiveness of GBV prevention strategies, public campaigns, and educational programs.

The study employs a multi-methods qualitative design, consisting of three interconnected stages:

artefact engagements,

digital storytelling workshops, and

theory-building and practice.

This candidate will work within a team. They will select an aspect of the research to extend or examine in more depth to enhance the study’s contribution. For example, the candidate may investigate in more depth the utility of digital storytelling as documenting factors of engagement (Stage 2 of the study design). They will be involved in the project theory building and in dissemination activities. The team will provide research training and mentorship, e.g. specialised training relating to collaborative and creative research methods, analysis and dissemination, and the ethical conduct of research.
Background information

The PhD candidate will undertake research as part of the ARC-funded project Addressing Gender-based Violence in Volatile and Polarising Times, which investigates how young people (aged 18–34) interpret and respond to contemporary public and media discourse on gender-based violence (GBV) and related prevention initiatives.

While awareness of GBV has increased in Australia, this has occurred within an increasingly polarised gender landscape characterised by backlash narratives, online misogyny, and emotional disengagement, particularly among young men and gender-diverse youth. These dynamics risk undermining inclusive and effective gender justice efforts.

The candidate’s research will focus on examining young people’s engagement and disengagement with GBV discourse and initiatives, with particular attention to emotional, relational, and intersectional factors shaping their responses. Drawing on qualitative methods, the student will be embedded within one or more stages of the project, such as artefact-based workshops and/or digital storytelling, to explore how young people navigate conflicting narratives around feminism, masculinity, responsibility, and harm. The research will contribute to theory-building around gender justice as a dynamic, context-responsive process, conceptualising engagement not as binary but as fluid and multidimensional.

The project involves collaboration with national and international partners through an Expert Reference Group, including OurWatch, Respect Victoria, Equimundo, Beyond Equality, and Indigenous and multicultural organisations. These partnerships provide a strong applied context for the student’s work and support pathways for research translation and impact in policy, education, and community settings.

About The Organisation
The Initiative for Strategic Litigation in Africa (ISLA) is a feminist pan-African organisation focused on the strategic litigation of women’s human rights and sexual rights both at national levels and within the African human rights system. Our work is based on the belief that strategic litigation is an immensely powerful tool for social change because it helps to reframe the understanding of entitlements before the law and challenges the legal discourse. ISLA seeks to gain ground by creating domestic and regional jurisprudence in women’s human rights and sexual rights; strengthening the capacity of litigators and NGOs on the continent; and conducting rigorous research.
Overview of Work
The Producing Knowledge for Social Change (PKSC) priority area is central to ISLA’s mandate. It aims to deepen understanding of feminist strategic litigation in Africa by creating knowledge products, documenting ISLA’s litigation and advocacy experiences, and strengthening learning internally as well as across the African feminist legal ecosystem. PKSC integrates knowledge production into programme work across the organisation and provides the evidence base to inform litigation strategies, collaborations, decision-making, and organisational learning. ISLA aims to appoint a Producing Knowledge for Social Change Manager to lead and coordinate its knowledge-producing efforts. The PKSC Manager will be responsible for developing rigorous, organisationally grounded, and movement-aligned women rights and sexual rights knowledge products; enhancing both internal and external learning; collaborating across ISLA’s priority areas; and documenting evidence to support organisational strategy. They will lead consultations and convenings, manage expert contributors, ensure high-quality research outputs, and embed knowledge work within ISLA’s broader strategic litigation objectives.

Minimum Job Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in law

Admission to the Bar in at least one African jurisdiction.

Master’s degree in Human Rights, Political Science, or a related field.

Proven experience in developing knowledge products on women’s rights and/or sexual rights, including research publications, legal or policy analysis, and learning documentation; with demonstrated ability to design research frameworks and methodologies.

Proven track record in managing research projects or coordinating multi-stakeholder knowledge initiatives at the national level.

INTRODUCTION
IWDA is an Australian-based organisation, resourcing diverse women’s rights organisations primarily in Asia and the Pacific and contributing to global feminist movements to advance our vision of gender equality for all.

Equality Insights is a systemic change program focused on addressing gender-unaware poverty and inequality measurement and data collection methodologies that underpin global efforts to understand and respond to poverty and gender inequality. Alongside development of a world-leading individual-level measure of multidimensional poverty and inequality and an associated survey instrument generating intersectional data, the Equality Insights program engages with the political economy of global data standards to influence recognition of, and demand for, individual-level gender-sensitive and inclusive measurement.

CONSULTANCY BACKGROUND
This consultancy is designed to assess viability of the program’s current business model in the context of the current funding environment for overseas development assistance and resourcing for development data. The assessment will consider the adequacy and sustainability of the program’s current business / resourcing model in this context, compared to alternatives previously considered by the program, and generate other options. The expected deliverable is a propositional way forward for sustainable resourcing models and approaches that will allow us to stabilise and enhance the value that has been created over 15 years, while also maximising delivery against the interest in, and emergent pipeline for, Equality Insights.
The emphasis of this consultancy is on recommendations for the future, including detailed pathways forward to a fit-for-purpose model and approach to resourcing, including initial overview of associated scaffolding requirements as relevant (e.g., governance arrangements, policies, legal and regulatory steps).

The objectives of this consultancy are to:

Snapshot the development data funding landscape, considering both traditional and non-traditional funders, to ascertain the viability of the existing business model;

Assess those findings against existing internal work regarding potential, alternative structures for ongoing impact;

Consider business models that are feasible for the program’s goals, and operational in the current funding environment, and outline at least two recommended options, in addition to the current model should this be identified as a recommended option and detail strengths in the current context ;

Design and propose a next-steps pathway for one of the business models (as determined by the Equality Insights team) that would enable a transition and to sustain impact, with financial sustainability at the core.

REQUIREMENTS
The consultant(s) should possess the following skills and experience:

Good knowledge of, and/or experience in, the data (and gender data) funding landscape

Knowledge and prior experience using business model tools and frameworks to create viable models for implementation

Background
CST Ethiopia represents the Catholic development agencies of Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales and works in partnership with local, secular & church organizations. CST Ethiopia works in the thematic areas of resilience building, humanitarian response, peace building, and women’s empowerment. Working through a partnership model with local non-governmental organizations, CST provides capacity strengthening, technical and financial support to local organizations. CST has been working in Ethiopia for over 40 years and jointly with Caritas sister agencies SCIAF and CAFOD as CST Ethiopia since 2009. CST is a member of Caritas Internationalis, CIDSE and brings wide-ranging support to peace building, resilience building, and conflict mitigation work globally.

Rationale
In recent years, CST has commissioned evaluations, produced final reports, learning documents, proposals, and routine monitoring data across different GBV and protection projects. These documents reflect a rich body of experience, innovation, challenges, and lessons, particularly in fragile, insecure, protracted crises and post-conflict settings such as in the Tigray region in northern Ethiopia. However, learning to date remains fragmented across individual projects. There is a strong institutional need to systematically synthesize evidence, learning, best practices, challenges, and recommendations across CST’s protection portfolio, to inform:

Program quality improvement aligned with international standards and GBV programming best practices

National-level learning and dissemination within Ethiopia, global platforms, donors

To respond to this need, CST seeks to commission an independent, high-quality meta-analysis and learning review, using mixed methods and grounded in the IASC GBV Minimum Standards, with particular attention to conflict and post-conflict GBV programming.

Overall scope
The consultant will conduct a meta-review of 7 CST GBV and protection projects, covering diverse geographic areas, implementing partners, donor frameworks, and time period from 2019-2025. The review will draw on existing documentation and datasets and KIIs. The scope includes, but is not limited to:

Final evaluations and endline reports

Regular reports, monitoring reports, project management meeting reports

Learning and best practice documents

Project proposals and logical frameworks

Monitoring data and indicator performance

Internal programmatic reflections and technical documents

Relevant national and international GBV standards and guidance

Evaluation of Tenders
The assignment will be undertaken by a consultant who meets the following criteria:
a) Essential Qualifications
• Advanced degree (master's or PhD) in Gender Studies, Social Sciences, Humanitarian
Studies, or related field
b) Experience
• Minimum 10 years of professional experience in GBV programming

Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) Economic justice Generic (e.g. 'gender focal point' role

This PhD position offered by IÉSEG School of Management is a fully funded doctoral opportunity in Finance and Behavioral Economics, starting in September 2026 on the Lille campus. The position is part of the GENRECO research project, which investigates the intersection of gender, psychology, and academic careers in economics. The main objective of the project is to better understand the factors shaping career trajectories, professional choices, and persistent gender inequalities within academia.

The selected candidate will be affiliated with the Department of Finance and will conduct research within LEM (Lille Economics and Management), a joint research unit associated with the CNRS, the University of Lille, and the Catholic University of Lille.

The PhD project adopts an original perspective on gender disparities in economics. While such inequalities are well documented (particularly regarding access to senior positions and distribution across subfields), their underlying mechanisms remain only partially understood. Traditional explanations, such as differences in productivity, age, or family constraints, do not fully account for these persistent gaps. This project therefore introduces psychological dimensions into the analysis, focusing on personality traits and value systems, as well as processes of academic socialization.

The project is structured around three main objectives: first, to measure the extent of gender inequalities within the discipline; second, to identify the psychological mechanisms that may contribute to their persistence; and third, to explore potential policy levers to promote greater equity in academic careers. More broadly, the research contributes to the literature by examining the role of stereotypes, scientific socialization, and the transmission of norms within higher education, as well as gendered dynamics in career choices in a high-status academic field.

The PhD candidate will be supervised by Aurore Burietz-Barakat, in collaboration with Caroline Perrin. The affiliation with the Department of Finance will also ensure strong training in quantitative methods and applied econometrics.

Applicants should hold (or be close to completing) a Master’s degree in Economics, Finance, Management, or a related field. The ideal candidate will have strong quantitative skills and an interest in empirical research methods. Familiarity with statistical software such as R, Stata, or Python is an advantage, as is an interest in psychology or behavioral sciences. Candidates are expected to demonstrate strong analytical abilities, intellectual curiosity, and the capacity to work both independently and collaboratively in an international research environment. Proficiency in English is required, and French is appreciated as well.

The position offers a competitive gross salary of approximately €2,300 per month, along with access to university facilities and a structured doctoral training program.
