BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT:
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) envisions a world with zero hunger where everyone has equal opportunities, equal access to resources and an equal voice in the decisions that shape their lives including as individuals within households, communities and societies. The pursuit of gender equality and women’s empowerment, disability and social inclusion is central to WFP’s mission to reduce vulnerability, improve food and nutrition security, build resilience to shocks, and support governments to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
In the Asia and Pacific region, exposure to climate change, conflict, and economic shocks intersect with structural inequality in access to services, livelihood opportunities, and resources - resulting in uneven and inequitable growth, risking leaving millions behind. Groups at high risk of being excluded include women and girls, sexual and gender minorities, indigenous peoples (with the region home to two-thirds of the world’s indigenous peoples), and the 700 million persons with disabilities who reside in the region. Despite the substantial expansion of social protection systems across the region over the past decade, significant coverage gaps persist particularly across South and South East Asia and the Pacific, and across different demographic groups.
WFP is uniquely positioned to accelerate progress towards gender equality, women’s empowerment, disability and social inclusion in Asia and the Pacific. In 2023, WFP’s seventeen (17) country offices worked to provide direct assistance to 32 million people. WFP’s technical assistance and capacity strengthening to enhance government policies and national social protection systems, including school-based health and nutrition programmes, presents a powerful platform to accelerate progress for the billions of men, women, girls and boys across the region. Today, WFP is working across the region to support governments to enhance the quality, coverage, effectiveness, and accountability of these programmes by leveraging WFP capacities in areas such as assessment and research, partnership with civil society and specialized agencies, programme support and digital solutions, and policy formulation and institutional capacity building.
The Regional GEDSI Advisor will support WFP regional and country office efforts to advance the priorities set out in WFP’s Global Gender Policy and the Global Disability Inclusion Roadmap, and work at regional level to advance GEDSI opportunities within WFP’s Regional Social Protection, Climate, and School-Feeding priorities. The Advisor will provide technical support to enhance GEDSI mainstreaming in programme design and monitoring; provide strategic advice to management in policy guidance; and enhance strategic, operational and financial partnerships with civil society, UN partners, governments and regional bodies, International Financial Institutions, Foundations and Climate financing.
The Advisor may be required to undertake field missions to emergency and hardship duty stations as part of this role.
ACCOUNTABILITIES/RESPONSIBILITIES:
Within the programme team, the Regional GEDSI Advisor will be responsible for providing technical guidance and support to country offices including in their engagement and advocacy with government stakeholders, building strategic partnerships, and advancing WFP’s global knowledge and c
