**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.
UN Women is mandated by the UN Security Council to lead on UN system-wide coordination on Women, Peace and Security, and to this end, UN Women has been working with governments, UN partners and civil society in the Arab States Region to support women’s participation and influence at all levels of decision-making to prevent and resolve conflict. Additionally, UN Women is committed to ensuring equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of humanitarian action, and that humanitarian responses seek to promote gender equality and more just societies. To this end, UN Women works in crisis prevention, preparedness, and response to reduce vulnerabilities, address risks, promote resilience, and leverage women’s leadership in crisis and post-crisis contexts.
In the Arab States region, the UN Women's Regional Office for the Arab States (ROAS), with support from the Government of Germany, contributes toward building sustainable peace by enhancing women’s leadership for sustainable peace in fragile contexts in the region. UN Women’s work focuses on strengthening women’s leadership and meaningful participation in peace and transition processes through implementing the below three outputs:
- Women peace actors have strengthened knowledge, capacity and technical expertise, and ability to influence peace processes and political and decision-making processes.
- International, regional, and national stakeholders have improved information-sharing, dialogue, and cross-fertilization towards inclusive peace and political processes.
- Peace process actors have increased access to systemized evidence-based knowledge that documents women's participation and influence and disseminate good practices and policies.
In addition, UN Women ROAS contributes to strengthening the resilience of vulnerable refugee and IDP women impacted by crises, displacement, and disasters due to climate change and exacerbated food insecurity in the region, with support from the Government of Japan. UN Women ROAS actively advocates for the inclusion of gender in humanitarian action across the region, mainly through its coordination work as the co-chair of the regional Gender in Humanitarian Action Working Group for the Arab States/Middle East and North Africa (RGiHA WG AS/MENA).
Reporting to the Women Peace and Security and Humanitarian Action Regional Advisor, the Programme Specialist WPSHA exercises overall responsibility for planning, implementing, and managing UN Women interventions under their portfolio. The Programme Specialist WPSHA supervises and leads a Programme Associate. The Programme Specialist works in close collaboration with the WPSHA programme and operations team at UN Women ROAS, respective country offices and UN Women HQ staff, Regional stakeholders, multi and bilateral donors, and civil society ensuring successful UN Women programme implementation under the portfolio.
