Digital rights GBV / VAWG Human rights Movement buildingAbout FEMNET
The African Women’s Development and Communication Network (FEMNET) is a pan-African, feminist and membership-based network based in Nairobi, Kenya with over 800 individual and institutional members across 50 African countries and in the diaspora. FEMNET envisions a society where African women and girls thrive in dignity and well-being, free from patriarchal and neoliberal oppression and injustices.
Founded in 1988, FEMNET exists to facilitate and coordinate the sharing of experiences, information, and strategies for human rights promotion among feminists, activists and women’s rights organizations as a strategy for collective organizing; policy influencing & advocacy; strategic communication; capacity strengthening as well as feminist solidarity and movement building.
Background
Rapid advancements in digital technologies, data systems and artificial intelligence (AI) have transformed social, political and economic spaces. While these technologies offer opportunities for innovation and organising, they have also intensified and diversified forms of Technology‑Facilitated Gender‑Based Violence (TFGBV) targeting women and girls.
TFGBV includes online harassment, cyberstalking, doxxing, non‑consensual sharing of intimate images, digital surveillance, gendered disinformation and AI‑generated abuses such as deepfakes. These forms of violence disproportionately affect women, women human rights defenders, activists and those at the intersections of multiple forms of marginalisation.
Under the ACT Programme, and in line with Output 1.2 on knowledge creation to eliminate violence against women and girls (EVAWG), FEMNET convened a Teach‑in Session on Feminist Digital Resistance, focusing on TFGBV, data justice and feminist responses to AI‑driven harms.
To support evidence‑based advocacy and policy influence, FEMNET seeks to engage a consultant to develop a feminist policy brief on TFGBV, drawing from the Teach‑in outputs and relevant regional and global policy frameworks.
Objective/Purpose of Assignment
The purpose of this assignment is to develop a concise, feminist and policy‑oriented brief that analyses the dynamics of TFGBV particularly in relation to AI and data systems and proposes actionable recommendations for policymakers, regional bodies and other key stakeholders.
Required Qualifications, skills and Competencies.
Academic Qualifications- Advanced university degree in gender studies, social sciences, law, public policy, development studies, human rights, or a related field;
- Strong grounding in feminist and intersectional analysis, with a clear understanding of the realities of women’s rights movements, digital activism and advocacy across Africa

Generic (e.g. 'gender focal point' roleIntroduction
Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations, and as the leading UN agency in the field of migration, works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.
Project Context and ScopeThe ongoing war in Ukraine has led to large-scale population movement. About 5.1 million Ukrainians are in internal displacement by June 2023,[1] of whom 58 per cent are women. Despite significant challenges, IDPs already seek durable solutions in large numbers. IOM estimates that around 4.7 million[2] people have returned to their areas of origin. A further 15 per cent of IDPs (est. 745,000 individuals) are seeking durable solutions through local integration.
To support the creation of conditions that are conducive for durable solutions, IOM has developed a multi-sectoral, area-based and community-driven approach towards resilience and recovery at the local level. This includes transitional housing for internally displaced persons (IDPs), restoration of critical public infrastructure and services, and support for displaced micro and small enterprises, as well as other livelihoods, and socio-economic recovery interventions.
The Hromada Reconstruction and Empowerment Facility (HREF) project contributes to community-driven recovery processes at the hromada[3] level, that strengthen resilience and promote inclusive, gender-responsive durable solutions for conflict-affected communities in Ukraine through the Hromada Recovery and Empowerment Facility (HREF). The project empowers hromada authorities and diverse local actors to develop and implement resilience and recovery plans through inclusive participatory planning.
One of the focus areas of the initiative is to strengthen inclusive programming and foster a community led gender responsive recovery path with key considerations to gender, disability and diversity-related needs, vulnerabilities, skills and capacities. These are facilitated through multi-sectoral needs assessments and consultations with group representatives including using DTM data and methodology as appropriate. In addition, based on emerging needs, gender is integrated into capacity building training for HRC members, labour market assessment and community engagement activities. Currently, the project is implemented in 12 oblasts with operational presence in 25 Hromadas.
Qualifications
Education, Experience and/or skills required- Advanced degree in gender studies, social sciences, development studies, or related field
- At least 3 years of experience in gender equality, gender mainstreaming, and capacity building within the Ukrainian context
- Proven experience in conducting gender training needs assessments and participatory trainings
- Strong experience in designing and delivering participatory training

Minimum requirementsEducation- A law degree (LLB or equivalent).
Experience- Proven experience in human rights law gained through academic research, litigation or programme implementation.
- Knowledge of frameworks relating to women’s rights and/or sexual rights, regional human rights protection systems and feminist advocacy strategies.

Skills- Strong legal research and writing skills, with the ability to produce high-quality outputs within deadlines.
