United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) is inviting legally registered Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) to submit proposals to support Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development (MoFALD) in strengthening capacity of elected women representatives to advance their leadership skill in promoting gender responsive and inclusive governance in Nepal.

The overall objective of the assignment is to develop a capacity development training package on GESI targeted at elected women representatives. In this initial phase, a training module, a pool of resource persons and a booklet on GESI and governance will be developed. There will be subsequent capacity development training programmes in the following phases in 2018. The training package will support the advancement of women’s leadership in promoting gender responsive and inclusive governance. The specific objectives of the assignment are as follows:

  • to develop a standard training package on GESI mainstreaming, targeted at elected women representatives;
  • to enhance the capacity of elected women representatives on the mainstreaming of GESI in local governance systems, processes and institutions, including leadership development aimed at further influencing decision making processes; and
  • to develop and disseminate the simplified IEC material on GESI and governance targeted at women, marginalized and excluded groups[1].
