Economic justice GBV / VAWG PSEA/ SafeguardingPurpose of the role
The Senior Investigative Researcher is a new role at Fawcett. We want to bring an investigative approach to our campaigning and research work. This is about discovering the emerging trends in the labour market and how affect they women, how women make money outside of formal employment, the behaviour of employers, the effectiveness of protection and regulation, and the impact of the ‘culture war’ narrative on women’s financial equality.
The 12 month contract will focus on women’s financial telling the stories and experiences equality but focussed on of women and workplaces in an emotive engaging way. This isn't a traditional desk and based research role. Rigorous evidence matters enormously but we want someone who is interested in uncovering what is happening in practice and is willing to ask difficult questions to get to the truth. Our hope is that we embed the investigative approach into all our campaigns and research outputs. While there are distinct projects this role will lead on hope to build significant autonomy and freedom and behaviours, into for example extreme misogyny online initially the role, to look at other trends and behaviours, for example extreme misogyny online, the Femosphere, content creator economics, or extreme beauty trends.
This may suit someone with a background in journalism, or research, or campaigning. We are less concerned with the professional background and more focused on finding someone who will take a brave and investigative approach, who will take a responsible and sensitive approach to talking to women and will be forthright and frank in the way those stories are told.
Person Specification
Essential criteria- A strong track record of finding things out — through journalism, research, campaigning, investigations or another relevant route.
- Exceptional curiosity and the instinct to ask “but is that actually true?”
- Excellent interviewing and writing skills, including the ability to turn complex evidence and people's experiences into compelling public facing stories.
- Excellent judgement around evidence, accuracy, consent, confidentiality and working sensitively with people sharing difficult experiences.
- Ability to assess the strength and limits of different types of evidence.
- Ability to work independently while collaborating well with colleagues across communications, campaigns, policy or research.

GBV / VAWG Gender equality and Social inclusion (GESI) Human rights Peace and SecurityIntroductionEuroMed Feminist Initiative (EFI) is a policy platform that provides expertise in the field of equality between women and men and advocates for women’s human rights as inseparable from democracy building and citizenship.
From 15th of September 2026 EFI starts the implementation of a six-month project “Enhancing Institutional Coordination and Survivor-Centred Responses to Violence against Women and Girls (VAWG) in Iraq and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KR-I)”, in the frame of the GIZ program “Strengthening Participation, Peaceful Coexistence and Equality in Iraq” (SPACE). The project seeks to support state and non-state actors involved in the follow-up of the 2024 Regional Index on VAWG to adopt more coordinated, preventive, and survivor-centred approaches.
The project builds on the previous process that enabled the inclusion of Iraq and KR-I in the 2024 Regional Index on VAWG. This action focuses on supporting institutional coordination, data and knowledge management, survivor-centred approaches, referral and response systems, professional capacity-building, the sustainability of institutional responses and practical follow-up measures in preparation for the 2027 Regional Index scoring process.
As part of the main activities, the project includes a mapping exercise on existing training materials, institutional practices, survivor-centred approaches, referral systems and capacity-building gaps. The mapping exercise forms part of the follow-up on the implementation of the 2024 Regional Index on VAWG in Federal Iraq and KR-I and aims to support institutional follow-up and survivor-centred practices.
Scope of WorkThe researcher or research team will conduct the mapping exercise in Federal Iraq and the KR-I, using desk review, key informant interviews (KIIs), structured questionnaires and surveys with relevant institutions, CSOs, service providers and technical stakeholders.
The mapping will establish an institutional baseline on survivor-centred VAWG prevention and response. It will assess existing training materials and capacity-building arrangements; referral and case-follow-up systems; specialised services and units; confidentiality and case-management practices; institutional coordination; data and knowledge-management systems; and available human, technical and material resources.
The exercise will identify previous capacity-building initiatives, providers, target groups, results and replication mechanisms; highlight priority gaps and opportunities for harmonisation and sustainability; inform the preparation of Training of Trainers (ToT) and internal replication activities for participating institutions and CSOs, and link findings and recommendations to the 2024 Regional Index on VAWG categories. Findings and recommendations should distinguish Federal Iraq and KR-I where mandates, systems or gaps differ.
QUALIFICATIONS· Relevant university degree and at least 5 years of experience in research, institutional assessments, women’s rights, VAWG, protection or survivor-centred approaches.· Proven qualitative and quantitative research experience, including desk review, KIIs, questionnaires and surveys.· Strong knowledge of VAWG response systems, referral mechanisms, survivor-centred approaches, confidentiality, case management, institutional coordination and knowledge management.· Understanding of data protection, ethical and do-no-harm considerations in VAWG-related research.· Experience working with governmental institutions, CSOs, INGOs or donor-funded projects, with strong analytical, drafting and presentation skills.

UN Women’s work on economic empowerment has focused on strengthening informal economy markets- their management, working conditions, recovering women’s incomes and opportunities for business diversification. UN Women has continued to contribute to improving working conditions for women informal traders through capacity building for market managers, promoting women’s inclusion in governance, and raising public awareness of hygiene and women’s rights. Furthermore, UN Women has supported recovery of women’s incomes through financial literacy, business skills development and access to finance.
Key to labour force participation and employment rates for women is their engagement in agriculture and fishing for household consumption in rural areas, where some 87 per cent of the population is concentrated. Limited access to formal sector opportunities restricts economic growth, especially for women, who face both formal and sociocultural barriers to formal employment, including GBV[i]. As a result, most women engage only in the informal sector, primarily in agriculture and micro- and small-scale retail. Meanwhile, women who enter the formal sector struggle to reach management level: just 13.8% of firms had a woman as a top manager in 2015. Estimates indicate that if women had equal employment opportunities, PNG’s GDP per capita could be 20.8% higher. Financial inclusion is growing rapidly across the country, partly because of the expansion of mobile banking services, but as with economic participation, women’s financial inclusion lags behind men’s.
UN Women is seeking to engage a consultant to lead the design of the women’s economic empowerment strategy in alignment with agreed priorities in the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (2024-2028). In particular, the role requires strong knowledge and experience in developing and implementing initiatives focused on business development and women’s financial inclusion, women’s voice and agency and social protection. It also requires supporting and developing mutually reinforcing partnerships with relevant regional bodies, Government counterparts, UN organisations, private sector, financial institutions, and CSOs – including deeper understanding of emerging issues in financing for gender equality.
Education:- Master’s degree or equivalent in Economics, Business Studies, International Relations, Development Studies or related field is required.
Experience:- At least 5 years of progressively responsible work experience at the national or international level in design, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of development projects;
- Technical experience in informal economy engagement, mSME development, financial inclusion.

GBV / VAWG PSEA/ SafeguardingBackgroundThe Violence Prevention and Response Unit (VPRU) is one of IRC's four Technical Units, bringing together Child Protection, Women's Protection and Empowerment, and Protection Rule of Law across over 35 countries. VPRU is increasingly strengthening connective tissue across GBV, child protection, and case management through a shared social work systems lens, in service of IRC's Safety Strategy. IRC's Technical Excellence teams offer five core services to IRC country programs: Program Design, Quality Assurance, Business Development, Research and Learning, and External Influence.
Job OverviewThe WPE field is at a strategic inflection point. The humanitarian system is contracting, siloed sectoral programming by default is under scrutiny, and the organizations that will define the next decade of protection practice are those that can ground a social work systems approach in feminist practice, building connective tissue with child protection, rule of law, and case management bridge prevention and response as two expressions of a single protective logic , and take seriously the financing of services for those most at risk of violence as a structural condition of impact rather than a donor-cycle variable.
Desired Experience and SkillsCore WPE and GBV expertise (required)- Established or growing recognition as an expert at regional or global level, with 12+ years of progressive experience designing, leading, and implementing programs, including 7+ years in GBV/WPE is required. Additional experience in social work, social welfare systems, or case management practice would be an asset.
- Strong track record of driving uptake of evidence-based practice.
- Demonstrated experience in sectoral strategy design and planning; experience with policy and advocacy efforts and campaigns for change.
General leadership and management- Ability to shape the transformative vision and agenda, complemented with excellent and an ability to identify and convert business development opportunities and the necessary communication, influencing, and storytelling skills to turn this vision into action ;
- Demonstrated capacity to lead, grow and sustain high performing teams, including through transition
- Demonstrated for self and staff; to influence across a wide range of diverse stakeholders; and to within the domain area.
- Demonstrated comfort engaging non-transactionally across donors, civil society, social justice movements, financing organizations, and academic communities: building and sustaining relationships as a basis for influence and trust over time.
- An understanding of innovation that transcends technology, behavior change and comfort with disruptive thinking
- Fluency in English required. Arabic, French, and/or Spanish welcome. Fluency in Farsi, Urdu, Swahili, Bambara, or other languages dominant in IRC's programming footprint is celebrated as a form of professional capital: speakers of these languages bring proximity to the realities of the women and girls we serve that expands technical expertise .
Education- Master's/post-graduate degree in Social Work, Social Policy, Gender Studies, International Law, Human Rights Law, International Development, Public Administration, or a related field required, or an equivalent combination of education and work experience demonstrating comparable depth.

GBV / VAWG Gender equality and Social inclusion (GESI) Health Human rights Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR)Gender inequality in Papua New Guinea (PNG) is severe, with the country ranked 169 out of 170 globally. Women and girls face high rates of gender-based violence (GBV) and low literacy levels. The DHS 2016-2018 indicates that 54% of women have experienced GBV in the past year, and nearly 23% of women aged 15-49 have no formal education. Structural barriers, cultural norms, and weak protection systems worsen the situation. Tribal conflicts, sorcery accusation-related violence (SARV), and small arms proliferation, especially in the Highlands, increase violence. Despite policies to reduce discrimination, comprehensive strategies are urgently needed to address these issues and achieve gender equality. Additionally, ongoing conflicts have displaced communities, further exacerbating GBV incidents.
Building on the gains of the EU-UN Spotlight Initiative to Eliminate Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) in Papua New Guinea (PNG), UN Women, UNFPA and UNOPS (Agencies) have commenced implementation of a joint initiative entitled “Soim Wokabout: Gender-Based Violence Referral Pathways Programme”, financed under the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument (NDICI Global Europe). The joint programme aims to reduce the incidence of GBV in communities in target provinces, including in and out of schools (Eastern Highlands and the National Capital District). This will capitalize on existing programmes addressing specific forms of Gender Based Violence (GBV) and Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHRs) while supporting prevention and protection efforts for GBV survivors, strengthening access to justice, and ending violence against women and girls at national, provincial, district, and community levels.
UN Women PNG seeks an International Consultant with specialized expertise in enhancing the institutional capacity of medical, legal and police service providers to deliver survivor-centred, gender-responsive and coordinated services. The intervention also seeks to improve women's and girls' access to justice through strengthened referral pathways, quality probing/investigative services, rehabilitation support and psychosocial services
Education:- Master’s degree or equivalent in Law, human rights, gender/women’s studies, international development, social sciences, or a related field is required
Experience:- Minimum 10-years of progressively responsible experience in legal support to strengthening social accountability mechanism, address gender equality and women’s empowerment, with a strong focus on ending violence against women, particularly in community mobilization and movement building/strengthening.
- Proven track record in developing SOPs, training manuals, or legal frameworks within the PNG health or justice sectors.
- Strong understanding of the Family Protection Act, SARV National Action Plan, and the National GBV Strategy.
- Familiarity with analysis of human rights and gender-related factors and other social determinants that affect the performance of survivors of GBV service utilization.
- Experience in facilitating high-level events with government representatives, Women’s Rights Organizations, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), and a diverse range of actors;
- Excellent coordination and facilitation skills for multi-stakeholder forums.
- Ability to communicate technical medical-legal concepts clearly to diverse audiences.
