According to the Law on Gender Equality in Montenegro, local governments are obliged to evaluate the impact of their decisions and activities on the position of women and men in all phases of planning, decision-making and implementation, in order to achieve gender equality. To this end, most municipalities, with the support of the Department for Gender Equality of the Ministry of Justice, Human and Minority Rights of Montenegro (MJHMR), have been developing their own local action plans for gender equality.
This consultancy will support the Municipality of Tuzi, which is the most recently established municipality within Montenegro, to develop its Local Action Plan for Achieving Gender Equality (LAPAGE), as a way to strategically assist the local community aligning with the gender equality national and international standards with a local tailored approach. This is in line with the previous support the OSCE Mission to Montenegro provided to municipalities of Montenegro, as well as with the ongoing efforts of the MJHMR to finalize a comprehensive national strategic document for achieving gender equality.
The Democratization Programme therefore invites applications from highly qualified, energetic and experienced local professionals for the temporary consultancy post of Local Consultant on Local Action Plan on Gender Equality, who will cooperate with the Working Group (WG) for creation of the LAPAGE document, consisting of 15 members from local government, NGOs and media. The objective of this consultancy is to assist Municipality of Tuzi develop its first LAPAGE in a methodologically coherent way that will result in a sound strategic document based on identified needs, supported by analytical work (SWOT/stakeholder/problem tree analysis), where vision, priority measures, goals and SMART indicators are defined with participatory approach. The LAPAGE creation will include the working group inputs and inputs from the consultative process.
