UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

In support of the Arab Republic of Egypt’s Vision 2030 and the National Strategy for the Empowerment of Egyptian Women (NSEEW), the work of the UN Women Egypt Country Office (ECO) is grounded in the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Beijing Platform for Action (BPfA). Under the Egypt/UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (2023-2027), UN Women implements its triple mandate of supporting normative standard-setting to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment, working with the Government of Egypt, civil society and the private sector on implementing international and national commitments and best practices, and strengthening UN system coordination in this regard. Since the early 1990s, UN Women ECO has consolidated its expertise, partnerships and investments around three main areas of work: women's leadership and system-wide support to advancing gender equality; women's economic empowerment including support to women’s paid and unpaid care work; and eliminating all forms of violence against women and girls.

Worldwide trends reflecting the unequal burden of care work, as well as a mismatch of care needs and care services available (in both public and private sectors) and the impact this has on families and women’s economic and public participation are mirrored in Egypt. The recent UN Women report _‘The Role of the Care Economy in Promoting Gender Equality: Progress of Women in the Arab States 2020’ _highlights that expanding decent jobs in the care economy sector are a major driver of private sector growth and women’s engagement in paid work. Between 2009-2017, private sector employment in Egypt grew faster in paid care sectors (education, health, and social work) than in the rest of the economy (at 13 compared to 1.8 per cent). Addressing gender imbalances in unpaid care work and investing in the paid care sector would increase women’s economic empowerment and reduce gender disparity in the Egyptian labour market, as women form a significant percentage of employees in the paid care sector.

The Government of Egypt prioritises supporting in the care economy as a means of supporting both the family and women’s overall economic empowerment. The Ministry of Social Solidarity (MoSS) is playing a crucial role in expanding the availability of care services nationwide.

UN Women is partnering with MoSS to strengthen investments in Egypt’s care economy, including assessing the cases and costing of strengthened care response, conducting a participatory assessment of the Working Women’s Service Centers(WWSCs) to determine the care services most needed in specific governorates and based on this, strengthening the WWSCs’ financial sustainability.. Through global and country level partnerships, these activities are supported by Global Affairs Canada, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, as well as the Swiss Development Cooperation in coordination with ILO.

As part of the above work, UN Women is seeking to hire a national consultant to provide technical support to MOSS in the day-to-day activities to ensure swift implementation of planned interventions.

**Objective of the Assignment**:
Under the overall supervision of the UN Women EVAW programme coordinator and the day-to-day oversight of the Assistant Minister for Social Protection for the Ministry of Social Solidarity, the national consultant will support MoSS in the planning and the implementation of the activities related to strengthen investments in the care economy. Based in MoSS, the consultant is expected to coordinate all field activities under the MoSS/UN Women partnership and provide the necessary logístical, administrative and programmatic support required for the implementation of the work.

**Duties and Responsibilities**:
Based upon a MoSS/UN Women agreed-upon quarterly workplan:

- Oversee the MoSS/UN Women joint support in developing the capacities of the Working Women’s
