Job Vacancy for Project Coordinator at UN Women

Background:
With the bilateral support of the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), UN Women is implementing a two-year programme, Action to Promote the Legal Empowermen in the Context of HIV/AIDS, to reduce the vulnerability and mitigate the impact of HIV and AIDS on women in Sub-Saharan Africa through improved access to property and inheritance rights.

Ample research and evidence suggest that women who own properly or otherwise control economic assets tend to have higher incomes, a secure place to live and greater bargaining and decision-making power within their households. These factors enable women to better protect themselves from risks of HIV transmission and infection, to negotiate safer sex and to avoid the need to engage in transactional sex. At the same time, increasing economic assets and ensuring women’s rights through access and recourse to legal mechanisms empowers women living with or affected by HIV/AIDS to cope with the impact of AIDS on their families and communities, particularly after the loss of the main breadwinner.

To catalyze strategic action, UN Women established a small grants mechanism, the Fund for Women’s Property and Inheritance Rights in the Context of HIV/AIDS, targeting community-based and grassroots organizations and networks working at the intersection of women’s property and inheritance rights.
