About Akili Dada
Akili Dada is a Pan- African feminist human rights organization established in 2005, working across Africa to strengthen feminist leadership, movement-building, and advocacy for structurally excluded groups.
Objectives of the Assignment
The overall objective of this assignment is to ensure that high-level webinar/ convening deliberations are translated into clear, strategic, and action-oriented documentation that advances feminist accountability and advocacy. Specifically, the assignment aims to: Accurately and rigorously document complex, multi-stakeholder policy discussions; Synthesize deliberations into concise, analytical, and advocacy-ready outputs such as evidence briefs/policy briefs, communique, convening reports, Op-Eds, blogs; Clearly articulate agreed commitments, action points, responsibilities, and timelines; Generate documentation suitable for regional and global reporting, donor engagement, coalition advocacy, and formal accountability processes.
Purpose of the Assignment
Akili Dada seeks to engage a highly experienced technical rapporteur(s) with demonstrated expertise in documenting UN-level and multi-country policy convenings, whose outputs can credibly inform shadow reporting, communiqués, evidence briefs, and strategic advocacy materials.
Scope of Work
The selected rapporteur(s) will undertake the following tasks:
a) Pre-Webinar Preparation
Review all relevant background documents, concept notes, agendas, and advocacy frameworks;
Participate in a preparatory briefing with the organizing team to align expectations, structure, tone, reporting templates, and expected deliverables.
b) During the Webinars
Attend and actively document all assigned virtual webinar sessions;
Capture key messages, policy positions, feminist analysis, points of convergence/divergence, and strategic recommendations;
Track commitments, advocacy asks, and emerging consensus among stakeholders.
c) Post-Webinar Deliverables
Produce a high-quality technical rapporteur reports per session or a consolidated report
Required Qualifications and Experience
Given that webinar outputs will directly inform shadow reports, policy communiqués, evidence briefs, Op-Eds, and high-level advocacy submissions, this assignment requires great support in strong technical expertise. Applicants must demonstrate:
A minimum of 5-10 years of proven experience as a lead rapporteur, policy analyst, or senior technical writer for UN agencies, multilateral institutions, AU bodies, or global policy processes;
Demonstrated experience producing shadow reports, outcome documents, policy communiqués, or accountability reports that feed into formal review mechanisms (e.g. CSW, CEDAW, UPR, UNGA, AU processes);
Strong substantive expertise in EVAWG, feminist leadership, gender equality, human rights, and accountability frameworks; Proven ability to translate multi-country, multi-stakeholder deliberations into political, action-oriented outputs (not descriptive meeting notes);
Advanced analytical synthesis skills, including identification of strategic policy asks and advocacy entry points;
Excellent command of English with professional drafting experience in UN style and tone; Ability to work under tight deadlines and engage in iterative review processes.
