- Identify risks related to safety, harassment, and violence in public spaces, and opportunities to mitigate these through design, management, and service linkages; and
- Develop a practical action plan outlining key steps to strengthen gender-responsive reconstruction across short-, medium-, and long-term timeframes.
Education and Certification:- Advanced university degree (Master’s equivalent or higher) in Gender Studies, Urban Planning, Social Sciences, Public Health, or a related field is required.
- A first-level University Degree in combination with two (2) additional years of qualifying experience may be accepted in lieu of the advanced university degree.

- Experience with gender audits, safety assessments, or urban planning processes is an advantage;
- Familiarity with survivor-centred principles and ethical standards for data collection with women and girls is strongly preferred;
- Knowledge of the Port Vila urban context, including the market and CBD, and familiarity with key government, civil society, and community stakeholders is strongly preferred; and
- Good English language writing skills, including demonstrated ability to produce clear written summaries and reports.
