Descrição da vaga
Fundo:
A ONU Mulheres, fundamentada na visão de igualdade consagrada na Carta das Nações Unidas, trabalha para a eliminação da discriminação contra mulheres e meninas; o empoderamento das mulheres; e a conquista da igualdade entre mulheres e homens como parceiros e beneficiários do desenvolvimento, dos direitos humanos, da ação humanitária e da paz e segurança.
A ONU Mulheres Moçambique concentra suas intervenções no empoderamento econômico das mulheres, na participação feminina e na governança democrática, combatendo a violência contra as mulheres, entre outros temas. Em Cabo Delgado e Nampula, a ONU Mulheres trabalha para proteger e empoderar mulheres e meninas afetadas por crises no norte de Moçambique, fornecendo assistência imediata para a recuperação, restaurando meios de subsistência e fortalecendo a liderança e a participação das mulheres nas ações humanitárias de resposta e recuperação.
Colocando os direitos das mulheres no centro de todos os seus esforços, a ONU Mulheres lidera e coordena as iniciativas do sistema das Nações Unidas para garantir que os compromissos com a igualdade de gênero e a transversalização da perspectiva de gênero se traduzam em ações concretas em todo o mundo. A ONU Mulheres oferece uma liderança forte e coerente em apoio às prioridades e aos esforços dos Estados-Membros, construindo parcerias eficazes com a sociedade civil e outros atores relevantes.
Under the overall guidance of the Country Representative and direct supervision of the Programme Specialist, the Project Field Coordinator works closely with the programme and operations team, Provincial Government, UN Agencies involved in the humanitarian response and civil society to ensure the technical direction and implementation of the project and key outputs are achieved in a cost-effective and timely manner. The Project Field Coordinator will be responsible for the implementation and achievement of results under the UN Women’s Japan Supplementary Budget (JSB) project, including Outcome 1. Resilience and safety of crisis-affected women and girls in Chiure District in Cabo Delgado Province and Erati District in Nampula Province are improved with increased access to emergency livelihood support and strengthened leadership capacity in emergency response. Under this outcome, the Project Field Coordinator will support the delivery of the following outputs: Output 1: 2,800 crisis-affected women and girls, including 560 women heads of households (20%), 560 adolescent mothers (20%) and 140 women with disability (5%), have improved access to emergency non-food items (NFIs) and livelihood support to help rebuild lost income sources, reduce dependency on humanitarian aid and prevent negative coping mechanisms. Output 2: Capacities of around 100 representatives of local women’s organizations and authorities are strengthened to enable women’s meaningful participation and leadership in gender-responsive emergency preparedness and response.
From the perspective of advancing the Humanitarian-Development-Peace (HDP) Nexus, UN Women will engage with key humanitarian coordination structures such as the Protection, Food Security and Livelihoods (FSL) Clusters, GBV and Child Protection Area of Responsibilities (AoRs), leveraging UN Women’s leadership of the Gender in Humanitarian Action Working Group (GiHA WG) to promote a gender-responsive response aligned with the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Gender Policy and inter-agency coordination efforts. The Project Field Coordinator will work closely with the Gender and Humanitarian Expert based in Pemba to support coordination with humanitarian actors, ensure the integration of gender-responsive approaches in project implementation, and facilitate engagement with cluster partners, local authorities, and women’s organizations to strengthen the participation and leadership of women and girls in humanitarian preparedness and response.
The project will also closely coordinate with the state agency responsible for coordinating the humanitarian response – the National Institute for Disaster Risk Management and Reduction (INGD), development and humanitarian platforms such as the Durable Solutions Working Group led by INGD and co-chaired by three UN Agencies (IOM, UNDP, UNHCR) as well as governmental entities such as the Agency for Integrated Development of the North (ADIN), responsible for coordinating development initiatives in the north at provincial and district levels.
