Since 2016, UNFPA APRO, with support from the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), has implemented the kNOwVAWdata initiative - a three-and-a-half-year programme that aims to provide technical support and sustainable capacity building, enabling countries to undertake VAW prevalence studies in an ethical and scientifically robust way, in particular by using internationally recognized, best practice survey methodologies. Two main components of the initiative are:
- Regional and national capacity building for conducting prevalence studies on VAW
- Knowledge sharing and communications
The purpose of the consultancy is to provide an independent, external and objective assessment of the kNOwVAWdata initiative (2016-2020) and to make recommendations that could guide future programming focused on strengthening capacities for the measurement of VAW prevalence.
The deadline for application is 17 February 2020 at 16:00 hours, Bangkok time.
