Global Green Growth Institute
Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) Senior Associate
Description
The overall objective of this assignment is to strengthen the integration of GESI within Rwanda's NDCs by conducting a GESI assessment of critical sectors, developing key actions and measurable indicators for GESI mainstreaming, and updating the ENR and CC GESI Strategy in alignment with national priorities and international best practices.
Funded by the Canadian Government through the NDC Partnership and in collaboration with the Government of Rwanda, through the Ministry of Environment (MoE) and the Rwanda Environmental Management Authority (REMA); GGGI is implementing a project to mainstream gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) within its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
The Government of Rwanda is committed to achieving gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) within its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) as part of its climate resilience and low-carbon development agenda. Rwanda's NDCs cover critical sectors including energy, agriculture, water resources, forestry, and waste management, each requiring a GESI-responsive approach to ensure equitable benefits for all population groups, especially women, youth, and vulnerable groups.
In this context, GGGI seeks to engage a GESI Senior Associate to conduct a comprehensive GESI assessment, develop actionable recommendations for mainstreaming GESI across the NDC sectors, and review the current Environment and Natural Resources (ENR) and Climate Change (CC) GESI Strategy.
