Beynəlxalq gender bərabərliyi üzrə məsləhətçi

Əsas vəzifələr

• Review the 2023 UNCT-SWAP Gender Equality Scorecard Technical Guidance and current reporting/platform requirements, together with Azerbaijan’s previous comprehensive assessment, annual progress reports and Action Plans, including the 2025 Annual Progress Assessment and Action Plan for 2026.
• Review relevant Azerbaijan-specific evidence for all 15 Performance Indicators, including the UNSDCF 2026–2030 and Results Framework, latest Common Country Analysis, final evaluation of the previous Cooperation Framework, Joint Work Plans and UN INFO/Gender Equality Marker data, UN Country Results Reports, GTG documentation, relevant inter-agency records, organizational culture survey results, gender parity/staffing data, and other evidence provided by the IAT. Azerbaijan does not have a Country Gender Equality Profile.
• Prepare an inception note and detailed workplan, refine the evidence matrix and indicator-rating templates, and build on the IAT and evidence-collection arrangements already initiated by the UNCT, RCO and UN Women.
• Provide a technical orientation to the IAT and support IAT sub-groups to review evidence, identify evidence gaps, analyse performance and prepare preliminary findings and rating justifications for all 15 Performance Indicators in accordance with the Technical Guidance.
• Review and use the 2025 organizational culture survey results for relevant indicators. A new survey is not required if the size and composition of UNCT personnel remain largely unchanged, unless subsequent technical guidance or material staffing changes make an updated survey necessary.
• Facilitate IAT technical discussions, consolidation and validation sessions to support consensus on ratings, findings and priority corrective actions, while preserving IAT ownership of the assessment and ratings.
• Draft the 2026 UNCT-SWAP Comprehensive Report and a GEAP-aligned Action Plan with clear actions, responsibilities, timelines, milestones/indicators and means of verification, integrating relevant United Nations system-wide Gender Equality Acceleration Plan (GEAP) priorities as applicable. The consultancy does not entail a separate country-level GEAP assessment.
• Prepare platform-ready reporting inputs, incorporate consolidated feedback and applicable quality-assurance comments, and support finalization of the report package sufficiently in advance of the 14 November 2026 submission deadline.
