Announcement Description

The Parliamentary Centre of Asia (PCAsia) is seeking for Gender Equality & Social Inclusion Expert.

PARLIAMENTARY CENTRE OF ASIA

The Parliamentary Centre of Asia (PCAsia) is an independent, non-partisan institute dedicated to supporting ASEAN parliaments through tailored capacity development, dialogue platforms, and evidence-based research. PCAsia promotes good parliamentary practice and regional cooperation on shared challenges such as climate change, gender equality, and inclusive economic growth. Through partnerships with ASEAN parliaments, AIPA, and development partners, PCAsia strengthens parliamentary performance by connecting parliaments together and with citizens, contributing to responsive and accountable governance across the region.

PROJECT CONTEXT AND BACKGROUND

This assignment falls under the “Parliaments Strengthening Forest Governance through Consensus-Based Approaches” project implemented by PCAsia with the East-West Management Institute (EWMI) under the UK Government’s Forest Governance, Markets and Climate Programme Phase 2 (FGMC2). The project strengthens the ability of the National Assembly of Viet Nam and the DPR of Indonesia to apply inclusive, transparent, and evidence-based forest governance practices.

The project includes several analytical and capacity-development components—such as stakeholder mapping, policy reviews, briefing kits, training modules, and budget oversight tools. These products are required to reflect gender equality and social inclusion considerations as part of their overall quality standards and alignment with PCAsia’s institutional policies. The GESI Expert will contribute in 2026 by reviewing draft products and providing inputs to donor reporting to ensure these aspects are appropriately integrated.
