Job Description:

  • In its multi-year strategic action plan, IRC has adopted gender equality as a cross-cutting priority outcome for all programs (WASH, ERD, Protection, etc.). This is reflected in the development of a results-based monitoring and evaluation system that ensures that data collected is disaggregated by age and sex. In addition, IRC implements gender-based analysis in its programs to assess the ability of projects to address gender issues and to ensure that barriers related to gender dynamics that prevent women, men, girls and boys and various groups from equitably accessing services in communities are addressed. This ensures that the gender dimension, which is the consideration of gender specificities, is integrated into all humanitarian interventions of the country program, in other words, promoting systematic gender mainstreaming. Thus, as part of its commitment to achieving its ambitions of fostering gender equality, diversity and inclusion in its programming, IRC Cameroon's country program will work with a consultant to conduct a comprehensive and intersectional gender analysis (CGA) that will target communities and programs in the various contexts in which IRC Cameroon operates. The results of the CGA will be used to inform existing and future program activities and enable IRC Cameroon to implement more gender-sensitive and inclusive programs that recognize the specific needs and risks faced by women, girls, men and boys and the most vulnerable groups-and do not exacerbate the inequalities faced by women and girls taking into account the socio-economic conditions of each, which may constitute layers of vulnerabilities. IRC aims, through this mission, to: 1. Explore the differential needs by gender, age, ethnicity, religion, or other exclusionary factors of host communities and internally displaced persons (IDPs) in a representative sample of the different contexts in the North West and South West in the crisis-affected regions where IRC operates. 2. Identify and understand current gender inequalities, risks, and opportunities for women, girls, men, boys, and other vulnerable people, including barriers to accessing services. 3. Gather information to better understand the impact of gender inequalities and other exclusionary factors on people's free will, their relationships, and the ways in which they interact with the systems and services around them, including access to water, sanitation and hygiene, health care, education, protection, and livelihoods. 4. Assess how the level of team knowledge, operational approaches, and program implementation systems selected by IRC affect gender inequalities and how these inequalities impact programs. This will also include an analysis of the formal and informal legal framework that may impact people's access to rights and services. 5. Assess and map available IRC services, and the extent to which they meet the identified needs of men/boys/women/girls and diverse groups, as well as the existing gap in meeting the specific needs of women and girls and the most vulnerable groups, and where the specific needs of women and girls remain under-addressed. 6. Make recommendations on how IRC program activities should adapt to improve accessibility, safety, and relevance for women and girls, men, and boys. 7. Make recommendations on how to implement IRC programs to actively influence the identified inequities. 8. Show case examples from each sector where a transition to gender transformative programs is possible. Methodology Using the Comprehensive Gender Analysis (CGA) toolkit, IRC Cameroon aims to gain a detailed understanding of existing gender gaps within host communities and IDPs and to examine a representative sample of projects in each sector, with the goal of designing and implementing diverse and inclusive gender-responsive programs. The toolkit is designed to collect qualitative information through focus group discussions (FGDs) and in-depth key informant interviews (KIIs) to build on existing program data and an initial literature review. These data are used to conduct a comprehensive gender-based analysis using the ecological model and then to facilitate a dialogue on how the analysis informs and impacts the Cameroon KII interventions in a phased approach that takes into account the current COVID-19 pandemic. In order to obtain the necessary information for the CGA, the consultant will conduct the following: Phase 1: Desk Review - Background reading to gain an understanding of the context of the Cameroon program, the humanitarian situations in which IRC intervenes, and gender norms, roles, relationships, and stereotypes in the various contexts in which IRC intervenes. - Review of existing IRC program data - Review of existing research and gender-specific information on IDPs and host community populations. Phase 2: Data Collection - KIIs with IRC clients and/or community members, and local decision-makers including duty bearers such as health or protection workers, and local field authorities: - KIIs with IRC program staff in all program areas and at all levels (officers, managers, coordinators, sector technical groups) Phase 3: Data collection (in the field, taking into account COVID-19-related barrier measures to avoid or minimize infection) - FGDs and KIIs with IRC clients and/or community members and local decision-makers and authorities in locations identified by the IRC team in North West and South West; Phase 4: Gender Analysis and Program Review Workshop - In Yaoundé, Buea and Bamenda (also reached remotely) Phase 5: Workshop to present the main findings of the gender analysis in Yaoundé and at a distance This workshop should be facilitated by the consultant. It should be participatory and comparative in order to initiate discussion with IRC strategic staff and to make substantive decisions regarding the recommendations and priorities identified. Phase 6: Sensitization of Implementation Staff Sensitization workshop for implementing staff, including managers and officers of each program on i) the key concepts of gender analysis, the rationale and relevance of gender mainstreaming, ii) the main findings of the analysis and the recommendations, iii) (and this is the most important point), the operational transcription of the recommendations: what staff will need to adapt, modify, look at from a new angle in order to promote gender equality in current and future interventions.
