El PNUD está comprometido con lograr la diversidad de su personal en términos de género, nacionalidad y cultura. Se alienta por igual a las personas que pertenecen a grupos minoritarios, a pueblos indígenas o que tienen alguna discapacidad a presentar su candidatura. Todas las solicitudes se tratarán con la mayor confidencialidad. UNDP no tolera la explotación y el abuso sexual, ningún tipo de acoso, incluido el acoso sexual, ni la discriminación. Por lo tanto, todos los candidatos seleccionados serán sometidos a una rigurosa verificación de referencias y antecedentes.

Antecedentes

The SitAn should be centered on a desk review of key documents provided. In particular, the SitAn must encompass the thematic areas listed in the following texts:

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals, as defined at the time of contracting;
The 8 Millennium Development Goals;
The ten core international human rights instruments, including optional protocols;
Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action;
The Tanzania Development Vision 2025 and Zanzibar Vision 2020;
MKUKUTA II and MKUZA II;
The Five Year Development Plan 2011/2012-2015/2016;

It is anticipated that the analysis provided will identify potential for synergies and complementarity across these areas of concern. Additional sources may therefore be consulted and a limited number of semi-structured stakeholder interviews, surveys and focus group discussions undertaken to complement the depth and range of the SitAn. The latter should be identified based upon availability, logistical constraints (travel, costs, time, etc) and ethical considerations. Data should be systematically disaggregated by sex and age and, to the extent possible, by geographical region, ethnicity, disability, migratory status and other contextually-relevant markers of equity. Information sources and findings should be triangulated where possible for validation purposes.

It is expected that at least some of the consultancy will be undertaken in Dar es Salaam, with potential for visits to Zanzibar and the wider mainland.
