People & Culture Advisor

United Nations Development Programme

<div><p><b>Background </b>:
</p><p>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.
</p><p>From the local to the global level, women&rsquo;s leadership is restricted. Women are under-represented in leading positions, whether in elected offices, the civil service, the private sector, or academia. This occurs despite their proven abilities as leaders and agents of change, and their right to participate equally in public life and beyond. Women face several obstacles to participating in decision-making and governance. Women are less likely than men to have the education, contacts and resources needed to become effective leaders. In line with SDG 5 target 5.5 of ensuring women&rsquo;s full and effective participation and equal opportunities for leadership at all levels of decision-making in political, economic, and public life, UN-Women prioritizes women&rsquo;s leadership in its Strategic Plan 2026-2029. In addition, UN-Women has spearheaded several initiatives to promote women&rsquo;s leadership in recent years. For example, in the context of the flagship programme on women leadership and Generation Equality, UN-Women has, since 2019, launched 1) Leaders for Generation Equality, now re-launching as the UN Women Leaders Network: a global intergenerational network of 75+ women leaders from different sectors who advocate for gender-equal participation in leadership and decision-making positions and aims to change the traditional picture of a leader; 2) a Call to Action to parliamentarians to increase the number of women in politics; and 3) a Generation Equality Action Coalition dedicated to Feminist Movements and Leadership.

The Senior Adviser will focus on three main deliverables: a) building on the above-mentioned initiatives, oversee the first permanent UN Women Leaders Network chaired by the Executive Director to enhance UN-Women&rsquo;s positioning in the area of women&rsquo;s leadership; b) mobilize 100 intergenerational women leaders from different sectors to join the UN Women Leaders Network; and c) ensure regular convenings and advocacy initiatives of the Network are held and produced, with particular emphasis on facilitating partnerships with other networks and organizations to advance women&rsquo;s leadership.
