1. Organizational Context
UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security. UN Women works to support women’s engagement in peace and security to promote improved implementation, and monitoring and reporting of global commitments on women and peace and security, including as set out in Beijing Platform for Action and in Security Council resolutions 1325 (2000), 1820 (2008), 1888 (2009), 1889 (2009), 1960 (2010), 2122 (2013) and 2242 (2015), relevant Statements by the President of the Security Council, as well as related accountability frameworks established by the UN system. The UN Women works to strengthen the capacity of actors engaged in inclusive peacebuilding and national dialogue processes to enhance women’s participation and influence and to secure gender-equality outcomes. At the regional level, UN Women works to drive forward the Women, Peace, and Security Agenda in Europe and Central Asia. This includes support to regional bodies and civil society organizations, collaboration with UN agencies and support to UN Women’s country offices. Regional work includes support to the implementation of regional and National Action Plans on Women, Peace, and Security, regional dialogue work on inclusive peace and mediation processes. UN Women in Europe and Central Asia supports projects that increase women’s participation and influence in decision-making to prevent and resolve conflicts, as well as engender humanitarian response. We promote gender perspectives in policy development and work to strengthen the protection of women affected by crisis and/or conflict. We amplify calls for accountability and advance the status of women in post-conflict/crisis settings. UN Women’s larger regional level work aims to ensure proper monitoring and oversight, build regional networking and knowledge sharing, and document best country-level practices. Reporting to the Regional Peace, Security and Humanitarian Specialist, the Programme Specialist exercises overall responsibility for planning, implementing, and managing UN Women interventions under the WPS and Humanitarian Action portfolio. The Programme Specialist works in close collaboration with the programme and operations team, UN Women HQ staff, Government officials, multi and bi-lateral donors and civil society ensuring successful UN Women programme implementation under portfolio.
