[HN] UN Women Viet Nam Tuyển Dụng Tư Vấn Cấp Quốc Gia Các Chương Trình Về Giới Và HIV/AIDS 2019
I. BACKGROUND
Grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the
Charter of the United Nations, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality
and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) works for the elimination of
discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the
achievement of substantive equality between women and men. The fundamental
objective of UN Women is to enhance national capacity and ownership to enable
national partners to formulate gender responsive laws, policies and upscale
successful strategies to deliver on national and international commitments to
gender equality.
As a leading entity for women’s empowerment and for
the rights of women and girls, UN Women promotes these causes through a
three-fold mandate that includes strengthening inter-governmental normative,
serving as a knowledge hub and providing technical support, and inter-agency
coordination. Each of these functions facilitates the work of UN Women towards
women’s empowerment in different levels. UN Women’s coordination role is a
distinct feature of the agency and allows UN Women to directly provide
technical support to gender mainstreaming across the system as well as branch
out to external partners through UN mechanisms to ensure gender is effectively
a cross-cutting issue that requires cross-sectoral responses, and such
responses are available for the achievement of SDGs in Viet Nam.
UN Women is also
leading and coordinatingmajor joint efforts to advocate for the protection and
fulfillment of rights of marginalized groups, especially ones affected by
HIV/AIDS. The epidemic is concentrated among key populations, especially people
who inject drugs, gay men and other men who have sex with men and female sex
workers and their sexual partners. People living with HIV (PLHIV) mainly live
in large cities and the mountainous provinces. National estimates show an
increasing proportion of new infections among female partners of key
populations at risk of HIV and men who have sex with men (MSM). The prevention
needs of female sex workers, intimate partners of males living with or at risk
of HIV are also not fully met and there are no specific interventions for
transgender persons. These groups should receive more adequate attention.
Better knowledge of the HIV epidemic and risk factors among these populations,
especially among intimate partners of those most at risk and MSM is essential. Stigma
and discrimination related to HIV, drug use, sex work and same sex relations,
remain major barriers for PLHIV and key populations to access HIV services and
undermine their human rights.
In this context, UN Women is
looking for a national consultant who will provide technical and coordination
support for the specific activities under the office’s Annual Work Plan for
2019.
