Background

UN Women ROAS together with ILO ROAS are jointly implementing a Programme on
Promoting Productive Employment and Decent Work for women in Egypt, Palestine
and Jordan. Strategies of the joint initiative include promoting equitable
labour market related laws and policies; engaging public, private and
community actors with attention to involving men; and reducing the unequal
burden of unpaid care work. The programme is working at three levels, macro,
meso and micro, reflected in three outcomes:


I: Gender responsive labour laws and related policies in place and effective
II: A gender responsive private sector that attracts, retains and promotes
women is supported
III: Gender stereotypes about women and men's responsibilities concerning
unpaid care and household work are challenged


A key focus of the regional joint programme is to (a) foster learning among
partner organizations and other stakeholders, and (b) enhance exposure and
replication of successful and scalable interventions of the programme. A
regional learning document will be developed this year, to be presented during
a large learning event with key stakeholders.

Objective of the Assignment:


The expert consultant is expected to develop a concise and user-friendly
regional document, capturing good practices, learnings and scalable approaches
implemented by UN-Women and ILO in the last four years. The document will be
accompanied by a short communications brief (companion to the main report). It
will build on the Mid-Term Evaluation, narrative programme reports, other
surveys and evaluations and key documents reflecting. The document should also
be informed by interviews and/or focus groups with key stakeholders.

Under the direct supervision of the JP Work4Women Programme Manager, the
learning consultant is expected to:

key stakeholders and beneficiaries including CO focal points to identify good
and scalable practices of the programme. This will potentially include in-

* Through desk research, and consultations identify and document lessons learned, innovations, success stories, gaps and challenges within the programme, to inform future work of UN Women on respective thematic areas of work;
* Identify strategies for replication and up-scaling of the programme 's good practices;
