3 days ago
Hiring Office:
UNFPA Philippines
Purpose:
The Gender Analyst will serve as the focal point for the coordination, implementation, monitoring, and reporting of gender equality and gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response initiatives, with a primary focus on the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). The Analyst will support the roll-out of gender and GBV-related programmes, track progress, and report on results, while advancing strategies such as policy advocacy, institutional capacity development, community engagement, and the integration of gender perspectives across development, humanitarian, and peacebuilding (triple nexus) efforts.
The Gender Analyst will also be responsible for ensuring that UNFPA interventions apply a human-rights-based and gender-transformative approach, promote gender equality, disability and social inclusion (GEDSI), and adhere to the principle of Leaving No One Behind (LNOB). The role includes providing technical guidance to government counterparts, implementing partners, and civil society organizations in designing and delivering interventions that are gender-responsive, culturally appropriate, and inclusive of marginalized and vulnerable groups, including women, girls, persons with disabilities, and indigenous communities.
In fulfilling these responsibilities, the Gender Analyst will work closely with BARMM government ministries, local government units (LGUs), civil society organizations, women's groups, and sister UN agencies (e.g., UN Women, UNICEF, UNHCR, and WFP), as well as bilateral and multilateral donors, to strengthen coordination and expand the reach of GBV prevention and response services. The Gender Analyst will represent UNFPA in relevant coordination mechanisms in BARMM and at the national level, ensuring that gender, GBV, and inclusion issues are consistently addressed in policies, programmes, and humanitarian response plans.
The technical and coordination work expected from the Gender Analyst shall be guided by the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2023–2028, the Magna Carta of Women, the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health (RPRH) Law, the BARMM Government's gender and development (GAD) and social sector plans, and the UNFPA 9th Country Programme of Assistance to the Philippines 2024–2028.
