Overview

UNDP is looking for 01 National Gender & Community Consultant to support ISEE-COVID Project Implementation.

The ISEE COVID project aims to enhance the resilience of social impact businesses (SIBs) in Viet Nam and contribute to reducing the impact of COVID-19 on vulnerable groups, especially women and girls. The ISEE COVID project has two primary objectives: (i) improving the effectiveness of SIBs, especially those led by women and vulnerable groups, to address the social and gendered impacts of COVID-19 and to accelerate the achievement of the SDGs; and (ii) strengthening the regulatory environment for SIBs to be more gender-responsive, inclusive and transparent, thereby supporting the resilience of SIBs to COVID-19 impact, with a particular focus on SIBs that are led by women and other vulnerable groups.

As a project funded by the Government of Canada, the project will follow both the guidelines of Canada's Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP) and the UN system-wide Action Plan on Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (GEWE), including adopting the gender markers system to monitor the project’s impact on gender equality and women’s empowerment.

In implementing the project, gender equality and empowerment of women and girls are mainstreamed throughout the outputs. Gender equality is integrated as a cross-cutting issue by the rationale, activities, indicators, and budget associated with each output. Each result promotes gender equality in a significant and consistent way.

Under the guidance and direct support to the Programme Analyst/Project Manager, UNDP Gender expert, in collaboration with Project Associate, other UNDP staff in the Country Office, project teams, and relevant GOVN staff, the Gender & Community Consultant is expected to provide technical inputs on Gender aspect for all project activities, and support on the implementation of the ISEE-COVID project, including Community Building, Monitoring and Evaluation, and Operation.

Overall, the consultant is expected to provide support to the ISEE-COVID project in the following areas of work:

• Enhance the mainstreaming of gender equality and empowerment, ensuring that the project results align with Canada's Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP) and GEWE
• Build and maintain SIB’ stakeholder’s community including SIBs, SIB supporting agencies, and policymakers
• Organize project events and operating activities, including monitoring and evaluation

Specific task off the consultant will be described in the TOR.
