Humanitarian Evaluation Specialist

tendersglobal.net

UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled.  UNFPA’s strategic plan (2022-2025), reaffirms the relevance of the current strategic direction of UNFPA and focuses on three transformative results: to end preventable maternal deaths; end unmet need for family planning; and end gender-based violence and harmful practices. These results capture our strategic commitments on accelerating progress towards realizing the ICPD and SDGs in the Decade of Action leading up to 2030. Our strategic plan calls upon UN Member States, organizations and individuals to “build forward better”, while addressing the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on women’s and girls’ access to sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights, recover lost gains and realize our goals.

In a world where fundamental human rights are at risk, we need principled and ethical staff, who embody these international norms and standards, and who will defend them courageously and with full conviction.

UNFPA is seeking candidates that transform, inspire and deliver high impact and sustained results; we need staff who are transparent, exceptional in how they manage the resources entrusted to them and who commit to deliver excellence in programme results.

Job Purpose:

  • In a context marked by the multiplication of humanitarian crises, the need for evaluative evidence to account for UNFPA’s performance in humanitarian assistance and to inform UNFPA’s current and future humanitarian programming is increasingly essential.

  • Under the supervision of the Humanitarian Evaluation Adviser, the Humanitarian Evaluation Specialist will contribute to the development of the humanitarian evaluation function at UNFPA.
Qualifications and Experience:

Education:  

  • Advanced university degree in development studies, public health sociology, environmental science, economics, social studies, international relations or other related field.
Knowledge and Experience:
