Honduras: Conseiller ou conseillère technique régionale en Justice entre les femmes et les hommes – Honduras

Organization: Oxfam-Québec
Country: Honduras
Closing date: 21 Oct 2016

RÉGION: Région de l’Amérique latine et les Caribes

PAYS D’ASSIGNATION: Tegucigalpa, Honduras

DURÉE DU CONTRAT: 1 année renouvelable

DATE DE DÉPART: Novembre 2016

ORGANISATIONS PARTENAIRES

L’ensemble des partenaires d’Oxfam dans la région bénéficiant d’un soutien dans le domaine de la justice entre les femmes et les hommes.

CONTEXTE DU POSTE

La stratégie centrale du Programme ACCÈS Innovation (PAI) repose sur l’assignation dans les pays d’intervention de conseillères et de conseillers techniques canadiens (ou résidents permanents) ayant pour mandat d’accroître les capacités techniques, administratives et financières des organisations partenaires locales. Ces appuis doivent permettre aux partenaires d’innover et de générer des changements durables dans leur milieu en matière de croissance économique, de sécurité alimentaire, de justice entre femmes et hommes**,** de bonne gouvernance et de viabilité de l’environnement. Dans cette optique, le programme privilégie le développement de modèles et d’approches d’intervention innovants à travers une démarche qui sera soutenue par un réseau de partenaires canadiens composés d’organisations reconnues de la société civile, d’instituts de recherche ainsi que d’entreprises socialement responsables.

En ce qui concerne la population cible, le programme met les femmes au cœur de toutes ses interventions, car celles-ci sont trop souvent privées d’opportunités et de pouvoir de décision et d’influence. Pour ce faire, Oxfam et ses partenaires mettent en œuvre dans tous les pays d’intervention une stratégie spécifique en matière de justice entre femmes et hommes – dont la lutte contre les violences faites aux femmes et aux filles – afin de promouvoir le plein exercice de leurs droits, incluant celui de vivre une vie sans violence.

MANDAT

Sous la responsabilité de la Coordinatrice de la thématique JFH dans la région et en étroite collaboration avec la coordonnatrice ou le coordonnateur du PAI dans le pays d’intervention et ses collègues d’Oxfam (pays, région, siège d’Oxfam-Québec), la conseillère ou le conseiller en justice entre femmes et hommes, veillera à contribuer à la mission d’Oxfam et à son engagement de mettre les droits des femmes au cœur de ses interventions afin de se positionner et d’influencer dans des espaces internes et externes.
