Organization: UN Children’s Fund
Country: Ecuador
Closing date: 18 Oct 2017

Antecedentes

Los niños, niñas y adolescentes son sujetos de derechos reconocidos en la Constitución de la República del Ecuador de 2008 y en los tratados internacionales ratificados. Cuatro principios rigen la aplicación de sus derechos: interés superior, supervivencia y desarrollo, no discriminación y participación. Sin embargo, los niños, niñas y adolescentes pueden encontrarse en situaciones de vulnerabilidad, principalmente debido a su edad (0 a 18 años) y enfrentan barreras para el ejercicio de sus derechos. Intervenciones específicas deben eliminar o, al menos, mitigar estas barreras.

El ejercicio real de sus derechos implica que tengan acceso a un sistema de protección de derechos, servicios de atención y justicia especializados en caso de vulneraciones de sus derechos. La Constitución de la República del Ecuador, en su artículo 66.3 garantiza el derecho a la integridad personal que incluye: la integridad física, psíquica, moral y sexual, estableciendo la prohibición de la tortura y los tratos y penas crueles, inhumanos y degradantes; a su vez garantiza en su artículo 46.4, a niños, niñas y adolescentes protección y atención contra todo tipo de violencia, maltrato, explotación sexual o de cualquier otra índole, o contra la negligencia que provoque tales situaciones.

En 1997, mediante Decreto Ejecutivo 908, se creó la Dirección Nacional de Policía Especializada para Niños, Niñas y Adolescentes, DINAPEN. La creación de la DINAPEN es el resultado de una suma de voluntades, de un esfuerzo colectivo, y de un compromiso de la sociedad civil y sus organismos más representativos, con la Policía Nacional del Ecuador, en defensa de los niños, niñas y adolescentes en situaciones de riesgo, en lo que a derechos humanos se refiere.

En la actualidad el servicio de la DINAPEN está en las 24 Subzonas del territorio nacional y cuenta con 614 servidores/as policiales especializados/as en procedimientos para NNA.

Entre los varios riesgos de protección que enfrentan los niños, niñas y adolescentes, está el abuso sexual. El abuso sexual afecta el desarrollo físico y emocional de los niños, y les quita la confianza en las personas, en ellos mismos y en la vida. Es una de las peores formas de violencia. De acuerdo a cifras del INEC 2011, una de cada 10 mujeres en Ecuador fue víctima de abuso sexual cuando era niña o adolescente. Los varones también han sido víctimas, pero no se conocen las cifras. El 65% de los casos de abuso sexual fueron cometidos por familiares y personas cercanas a las víctimas. Una de cada 4 víctimas de abuso sexual nunca aviso. Las víctimas se quedaron calladas por temor a las represalias, vergüenza, impotencia o por miedo a las amenazas. Del total de casos de abuso sexual, solo el 15% fue denunciado, y solo el 5,3% sancionado.

La DINAPEN es una de las instancias que reciba la denuncia y es un actor clave en la respuesta al abuso sexual. Sus profesionales deben estar capacitados para garantizar un abordaje integral de protección a niñez y adolescencia sobrevivientes de violencia sexual garantizando, en todo caso, la no revictimización de las/os niñas, niños y adolescentes.

UNICEF apoya los procesos de fortalecimiento de la respuesta a los casos de abuso sexual contra niñez y adolescencia de todos los actores clave en el sector justicia y en los servicios, a fin de promover una visión integral, articulada y especializada a esta violación de derechos humanos.

Contenido de la capacitación:

Organization: Amnesty International
Country: Peru
Closing date: 08 Nov 2017

Amnesty International has embarked on a major change process to transform the way we address our internal and external challenges, and to strengthen our global movement ensuring an enhanced human rights impact. In this context, we are shifting our centralized International Secretariat (IS) by setting up offices in key strategic global locations.

In the Americas, we already have established our Americas Regional presence in offices in three different locations (Mexico City, Lima and Washington D.C.) We are not just transforming our structures and ways to function and operate, but we will are also harnessing the remarkable people-power of our IS staff, our sections and membership base. In order to do this we need to recruit an exceptional Human Rights expert to lead our research work in the Southern cone and Andean region, and manage an exceptional team of researchers and other experts in our sub-regional office in Peru.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Reporting to the Americas Regional Director (based in Mexico), the Deputy Director for Research will coordinate the development and implementation of the sub-regional research and advocacy strategies, providing political advice to the Director, undertaking field travel and managing work and critical human rights situations, particularly in the Andean region and Southern Cone, as well as regional thematic issues. You will guide expert researchers to deliver powerful regional and country research reports and other publications that inspire people to act. You will manage a group of experienced researchers and human rights experts looking for guidance and innovative research strategies and methodologies. You will contribute to represent Amnesty International in the field and elsewhere, including with senior government officials, media, peer organizations and other audiences.

At the same time, as one of four Deputy Directors of the IS Americas, you will work closely with the Americas Director to set up and manage the regional operation, control budgets and motivate and inspire regional staff. Indeed, you will be integral to the corporate management of the International Secretariat, deputising for the Regional Director whenever necessary.

ABOUT YOU

You are an expert on the human rights context in the region, with a strong background in research and advocacy, possessing impressive political judgement and proven management skills. You are likely to come to us from a similar senior role with another human rights organization and will have first-hand knowledge of the Americas region, specifically with lived and worked experience in the Andean region and Southern Cone. The proven ability to get the best out of people is vital too, whether that is through coaching, mentoring, capacity building or training.

Having worked in a similar leadership role in a complex human rights organization, you have no problem managing cross-functional, multi-cultural teams; and you certainly know how to adjust priorities, hit deadlines and adapt to fast-changing political situations. You have excellent external representational skills. Above all, you have the collaborative and creative approach needed to generate human rights agendas that resonate and get results. You have excellent written and verbal Spanish and English, and preferably Portuguese.

ABOUT US

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who campaign for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all. We reach almost every country in the world and have:

• more than 2 million members and supporters who drive forward our fight for rights
• more than 5 million activists who strengthen our calls for justice

And whether we’re applying pressure through powerful research or direct lobbying, mass demonstrations or online campaigning, we’re all inspired by hope for a better world. One where human rights are respected and protected by everyone, everywhere.

At Amnesty International, we are passionate about what we do and we are proud of our achievements as a movement.
