Background | ||
In the Concluding observations on the second periodic report of Montenegro (CEDAW/C/MNE/CO/2, 2017), Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW Committee) recommends to “strengthen accountability mechanisms for achieving gender equality and ensure the conduct of systematic gender impact assessments“. The evaluation of the national Action Plan for Achieving Gender Equality (APAGE) 2017-2021 revealed capacity gaps among the public administration staff at all levels to assess the implications of planned actions, legislation, policies or programmes on women and men, boys and girls. The OSCE Mission to Montenegro in partnership with the Department for Gender Equality (DGE) of the Ministry for Justice and Human and Minority Rights (MJHMR) of Montenegro supports structured and systemic gender mainstreaming in the formulation, implementation and monitoring of policies and programmes, in all areas and at all levels of public administration. The Democratization Programme therefore invites applications from highly qualified, energetic and experienced local professionals for the temporary consultancy post of Local Consultant for Capacity Assessment, who will be working jointly with second consultant to assess the extent to which the previous capacity-building efforts on gender equality targeted at public administration staff and officials, were synchronized, how knowledge was utilized, shared and measured. It is also expected to propose optimization of capacity development through structured inter-sectoral and inter-ministerial cooperation. The two consultants will provide a joint report on the findings and recommendations. The objective of this consultancy is to create Capacity Assessment Report assessing existing knowledge of gender concepts (gender equality, women’s empowerment, gender mainstreaming), international and national legislation, policies and procedures dealing with gender equality, as well as attitudes on gender equality and respective practices among public administration staff at all levels. Findings will serve as basis for a comprehensive Capacity Development Plan, which would represent a structured approach towards capacity development of the public administration staff. The overall aim of the assignment is to contribute to institutional transformation and provision of fair and gender-sensitive policies, programmes and services for citizens – men and women, girls and boys. |
