Call for proposal – Gender Situation and Needs Analysis: UNIFEM, Somalia

Call for proposal – Gender Situation and Needs Analysis: UNIFEM, Somalia

Due to the continued conflict situation, the national gender machineries – the three ministries tasked with gender equality or women’s welfare – in the three zones of Somalia have not only been marginalised in whatever very little institutional development initiatives have been undertaken but are also missing from processes of democracy-building and the larger state building actions.

The recognition of this gap by the UN agencies and the need for action to address gender inequality and women’s rights based needs forms the basis for this Request for Proposal (RFP) to carry out Gender Situation and Needs Analysis, CSO Scoping and Development of a Joint Assignment on Institutional Development of Gender machineries in Somalia.

Deadline for proposals: March 31, 2010.

For further information and to submit a proposal, please visit UNGM.

International Women’s Development Agency (IWDA) is committed to collaborating with project partners and stakeholders to promote and support dialogue in relation to women, gender and development. As part of our ongoing strategy to advocate for best practice in the sector, we are pleased to bring you E-Gender – a mechanism for Australian and international readers to share information on their gender and development work, both nationally and internationally, as well as sharing international resources and items of interest.

Thank you for your feedback to date, and we encourage your ongoing input in this initiative. IWDA is keen to feature information about resources, events and opportunities in Australia and invites you to contribute. Please send information to be included to egender-items@iwda.org.au
