Womankind Worldwide

- Job type: Consultancy
- Experience level: Not specified
- Organisation type: Civil Society
- Remote option: Remote (global)
- Right to work requirements: Anyone can apply
- Remuneration: $5,500 USD / Budget
Political participationBackgroundWomankind Worldwide is an international women’s rights organisation and funder, working with women’s rights groups and feminist movements across the world to end gender inequality. We have influenced governments and other decision-makers to commit to ending violence against women, enable women to gain economic independence and ensure their voices are heard. As a feminist organisation, working to dismantle systems of oppression that discriminate against women, girls and people of all genders is at the heart of what we do. This is why decolonisation and antiracism inform how we work.
Purpose of the Consultancy
We want to contribute to influencing positive change on UK policy and commitments to gender equality. Furthermore, the UK has significant influence in certain settings, and we would like to see this channelled to influence action—for example, championing reform of International Financial Institutions, corporate accountability, and tax justice.
While we recognise the difficulty of making cut-through with advocacy calls in this challenging policy environment, it is more important than ever that we advocate on aspects like ending femicide, tackling Tech Facilitated Gender Based Violence (TFGBV), and stopping corporate abuse.
Womankind has traditionally conducted its advocacy in partnership with other UK NGOs, including through the GADN and CJC. While this is a vital and continuing strategy, the moment has arrived for us to refine and build on our own calls as an organisation and engage directly with the UK government on them as Womankind.
The brief will be a means of using our power and positionality as a UK registered organisation to conduct relevant, timely and meaningful advocacy informed by and seeking to address UK positions on relevant issues and in the context of global developments affecting the feminist ecosystem.
Key Tasks:
- An audit of existing calls – involving interviews and shared documents from team members.
- A review of calls including partners through interviewing them to collect their views on recommended updates, amendments and gaps.
- Recommendations in the form of a preliminary findings report of 3-5 pages to Policy and Advocacy team for decisions on which content to include.
- Skeletal outline of the brief.
- Development of policy brief (including an anticipated three drafts for colleagues’ inputs before finalisation) with aim to increase Womankind’s influence with the UK government
Key qualifications/skills
We are looking for a feminist professional with an anti-racist and de-colonised approach who has the following skills and experience:
- The consultant should be an expert in UK government and parliamentary advocacy on international development and gender equality with deep understanding of the current policy environment and challenges.
- Ability to both map political opportunities and engage with Majority World partner representatives in a way that shares power and recognises their expertise in their contexts and work areas.
- Excellent writing, interpersonal and communication skills (in English).
- Outstanding analytical skills.
- Effective time and project management skills.
