**EXPECTED DURATION OF ASSIGNMENT**:
18 Working Days
**Background**:
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 line with UN Women’s Strategic Plan 2023-2027, the UN Women Egypt office is contributing to three interdependent and interconnected outcomes:
- Women lead, participate in and benefit equally from governance systems.
- Women have income security, decent work and economic autonomy.
- All women and girls live a life free from all forms of violence.
With heavy focus on reaching women at greatest risk of being left behind - rural women, women at risk of poverty, women living with disabilities, and young women from these groups. UN Women Egypt Country Office (ECO) uses the following key strategies: fostering nationally owned, positive social norms including through the active and continuous engagement of men and boys; supporting all women’s equitable access to services, goods and resources, including women at risk of being left behind; advocating for women’s leadership and voice; supporting the production, analysis and use of nationally owned gender statistics, sex-disaggregated data, and knowledge.
Under the principle of “leaving no one behind”, including women with disabilities, UN Women partnered with the Egyptian National Council for Women, the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics, UNDP and UNFPA, to develop Egypt’s first national study on Violence Against Women with Disability launched in 2022. The national study generated a series of recommendations to enhance institutional support to women and girls living with disabilities who experience violence or harmful practices; as well as to create an overall enabling environment to empower women overall.
This gendered and intersectional experience of disability is underexamined globally and interventions on the rights of persons with disabilities have historically neglected aspects of gender equality. Similarly, interventions and policies addressing gender equality may not address the specific needs of women and girls with disabilities. The lack of user input propagates systems and spaces that are not accessible or relevant. People with disabilities and reduced mobility are often not involved in the design, planning, and implementation process of infrastructure projects.
In order to create safe, accessible and effective public spaces and services, there is a vital need for all stakeholders to understand the nature and the prevalence of this phenomenon and the needs of users. This is particularly true in the provision of essential services responding to gender-based violence against women and girls.
Building on the findings the national study on women living with disabilities who experienced violence, and specifically on the recommendations related to access to essential services in this regards, working with the National Council for Women UN Women is recruiting a Technical Expert, supported by a lead researcher, to develop a technical paper on actionable interventions to address the different kinds of barriers and discrimination that women and girls with disability face in accessing the essential services which respond to gender-based violence against women and girls. The purpose of the technical paper is to inform future programming and policy design.
**Objective of the Assignment**:
Under the overall supervision of the UN Women Ending Violence Against Women Specialist and working closely with the Council for Women, UN Women seeks to contract Technical Expert to lead the drafting of a technical paper on the accessibility of essential services to women with disabilities, present challenges and rights-based solutions for access to essential services.
**Duties and Responsibilities**:
