Programme Analyst - P1

Background :

Please note this is the same vacancy as UN Women Programme Analyst, WPHF WHRD Window, advertised previously with duty station as Geneva. The duty station has changed to Bonn. Applicants who previously applied to the Geneva post need not re-apply.

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 hosts the Secretariat of the Women's Peace and Humanitarian Fund. The WPHF Secretariat provides support to the Funding Board, mobilizes resources from Governments, companies, foundations and individuals, provides day to day support to Country Offices implementing WPHF programs, and ensures timely and quality monitoring and reporting.

In 2022, the WPHF Funding Board established a new window for the protection and advocacy of Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) which is hosted by the WPHF Secretariat. The WHRDs window provides two types of support : (i) safety net grants that cover protection and livelihood expenses of WHRDs at risk from crisis and conflict settings (implemented together with INGO partners) ; and (ii) direct logistical support for participation of WHRDs in advocacy and decision-making processes (implemented directly by the WHRDs window unit). Since its establishment the window has supported over 300 WHRDs and more than 700 dependents through both protection and advocacy support.

Reporting to Project Coordinator of the WPHF WHRD Window, the Program Analyst provides administrative and programmatic support to the effective management of the Global and Afghanistan Portfolio under the WPHF WHRD Window by contributing to the design, formulation, implementation and evaluation of the window's outputs and activities.

In July 2010, the United Nations General Assembly created UN Women, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. The creation of UN Women came about as part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact. It merges and builds on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system (DAW, OSAGI, INSTRAW and UNIFEM), which focused exclusively on gender equality and women's empowerment.
