Terms of Reference for a Gender-Responsive Budgeting Trainer

ABA ROLI is seeking a qualified trainer to deliver a three-day workshop on gender-responsive budgeting for staff members of Timor-Leste’s Secretary of State for Equality (SEI), scheduled for November 13–15, 2024 in Dili, Timor-Leste. The workshop aims to equip SEI staff with practical tools to effectively support and monitor the implementation of gender-responsive budgeting across the government.

Background
For 30 years, and through our work in more than 100 countries, the American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiative (ABA ROLI) and our partners have sought to strengthen legal institutions, support legal professionals, foster respect for human rights, and promote understanding of the law and citizens’ rights. In collaboration with our in-country partners, including government ministries, judges, lawyers, bar associations, court administrators, legislatures, and civil society organizations, we design programs that support local needs and prioritize sustainable solutions to pressing rule of law challenges.
This call for proposals is part of the work implemented by ABA ROLI in Timor-Leste through the “Legal Reform Fund” (LRF) program in Timor-Leste, which aims at removing barriers to women’s full and effective participation in economic life in key areas, including eliminating barriers to property ownership and management. The LRF program, funded by the U.S. Department of State’s Office of Global Women’s Issues (S/GWI), is currently being implemented in Guatemala, Indonesia, and Timor-Leste.
