<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles & Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p><span >Project Context These ToR are developed within the framework of the program (hereinafter the Convenio) entitled "Strengthened the active participation of women (Jordanians, Syrian Refugees, Youth and Women with Disabilities - WwD) with a comprehensive approach to rights in Jordan", funded by the Spanish Cooperation AECID and the Barcelona City Council. Alianza por la Solidaridad is part of a consortium formed by three Spanish NGOs (Alianza, MPDL and NOVACT), of which Movement for Peace MPDL is the lead organization for this intervention, along with the local partners: Be Positive; Community Based Rehabilitation Center (CBR); I Dare; and Housewives Association (HSF). The direct local partner of Alianza is HSF. This Convenio will last until early 2027. Its general objective is to Contribute to a life free of violence for women, preventing economic, gender, community and digital violence and it includes 3 specific objectives: - SO1 : Promote the sustainable and inclusive economic empowerment of Jordanian and refugee women, with special attention to young women and women with disabilities. - SO2 : Improve the system of protection, prevention and response to gender violence in Mafraq, Zarqa and Amman. - SO3 : Strengthen the leadership of Jordanian and refugee women, paying special attention to young women and/or women with disabilities, in peace building, preventing violent conflicts and promoting resilience in their communities. Alianza is coordinating the implementation of SO2, in which these ToR are framed.</span></p><p>Project Objectives Specific Objective 2: Improve the system of protection, prevention and response to gender violence in Mafraq, Zarqa and Amman, will be achieved through the following outcomes: - SO2. O1. Women and WwD (Jordanians and refugees) surviving or at risk of GBV have access to prevention, detection, care and referral services with high quality standards. - SO2. O2. Strengthened the favorable environment at the community level for the prevention and detection of gender violence and the promotion of women's rights, from the female leadership. - SO2. O3. Reinforced the joint strategy of partner organizations to guarantee the protection and empowerment of women and WwD (Jordanians and refugees) from a comprehensive perspective. These ToR are mainly related to Outcome 2 of Specific Objective 2, more specifically with the activity A2.2.4 Piloting and development of a protection kit to avoid potential negative impacts on women's security derived from their economic empowerment . The goal of this activity is to develop and disseminate a set of tools grounded in experience to serve as a guide for any organization seeking to launch economic empowerment programs, ensuring protection and an approach based on the principle of do no harm .</p><p>CONSULTANCY Summary of the Process The consultant (or consultancy group) will conduct an analysis of various economic empowerment initiatives carried out both within and outside the project consortium to identify key aspects and best or worst practices related to the risks faced by women participating in these programs and their protection. Based on this analysis and knowledge of the sector, the consultant will develop intervention guidelines for organizations working on women s economic empowerment (entrepreneurship/self-employment or employment) that will ensure potential risks are taken into account and prevent unintended consequences in terms of protection against violence and discrimination.</p><p>Objective and Outputs of the Consultancy The project aims to develop comprehensive, practical, and useful guidelines or a toolkit to ensure the protection against and prevention of gender-based violence at all stages of economic empowerment programs. This toolkit will serve as a reference for any stakeholder (community organizations, NGOs, public institutions) that implements economic empowerment programs for vulnerable women or intends to do so in the future. Prior to this, the consultant will analyze real-world cases carried out by partners in order to better understand the challenges, main obstacles, and risks related to the protection of women and the prevention of gender-based violence in this type of interventions. The specific expected outputs are as follows: • Conduct a thorough analysis of current/recent experiences of economic empowerment initiatives for women, identifying: practices that entail or might entail risks of GBV or any other protection risk; short-term impact of the initiatives on (risk of) GBV by women participants; solutions/recommendations to bridge these gaps; good practices implemented to ensure protection and/or avoid (further) GBV and discrimination throughout the program cycle, especially for those women already at risk. • Develop a comprehensive and user-friendly toolkit to ensure protection for women in economic empowerment programs, especially those addressed to vulnerable women. The toolkit must cover the whole program cycle, addressing at the very least: Design, planning, implementation, monitoring, evaluation. • Train Alianza-AA staff, partners and other relevant stakeholders in understanding and using these guidelines/toolkit. All the process will be guided by the following principles: • Human rights-based approach (HRBA) , ensuring a thorough analysis of the root causes of protection risks and treating participant women as right-holders. • Survivor-centered approach, that will guide the consultants in their engagement with persons who have experienced GBV or may be at risk of it. This principle will also be integrated in the contents of the toolkit. • Intersectionality. The process and the developed tools will account for and be responsive to the different rights, needs and risks attached to different sources of vulnerability added to gender discrimination such as age, disability, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, etc. • Do no harm. The concept of do no harm means that humanitarian organizations must strive to minimize the harm they may inadvertently be doing by being present and providing assistance. Such unintended negative consequences may be wide-ranging and extremely complex. Protection actors can reinforce the do no harm principle in their GBV-related work through careful attention to the human rights-based, survivor centred, community-based and systems approaches described below.</p></div></section><section><p class="heading">Desired Candidate Profile</p><p class="paragraph"></p><p>Degree in Gender Studies, Social Work, Psychology, or related fields relevant to the assignment. • Proven knowledge of GBV and protection issues, including key concepts, approaches and relevant stakeholders and frameworks at local and international level. • Proven experience in GBV and protection programming. • Proven experience in participatory analysis and assessments. • Experience working with vulnerable communities, especially with women survivors or at risk of GBV. • Strong research and facilitation skills, with a focus on participatory methodologies. • Ability to develop innovative and user-friendly training materials. • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills. • Understanding of the local context and cultural dynamics related to GBV and gender issues in Jordan. • High or native level of Arabic. • High level of English.</p><p></p></section>
