Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa OHCHR - Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights Full time
Result of Service


Organisational Setting and Reporting The United Nations Resident Coordinator's Office (UN RCO) leads the coordination of UN programming in Eswatini including through the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF).

It ensures the alignment of the UN assistance with national development priorities, plans and capacity building in the context of internationally agreed treaty obligations and sustainable development goals.

It also works to position the UN system at the centre of development efforts and international cooperation in the country.

The UNSDCF guides the UN and the Government's engagement in enhancing the economic and social development of the people of Eswatini.

The UN-World Bank report on "Pathways for Peace" highlights that inequalities and exclusion, unaddressed grievance, the lack of participation and the lack of responsive and accountable government drive violence and conflict and concludes that economic development alone is not a guarantee for peace.

The report demonstrates the cost-effectiveness of upholding human rights, building resilient communities through investment in inclusive and sustainable development, addressing inequalities and exclusion, and the importance of multilateralism.

The 2020 SG's Call to Action for Human Rights recognizes human rights as central to seven most pressing issues which are also highly relevant to realizing the UN Prevention Agenda including:
(1) the urgent achievement of sustainable development; (3) tackling gender inequality once and for all; (4) ensuring robust participation and civic space for everybody; and (7) all pitching in together to make this a reality. The SG's Call to Action for Human Rights makes public participation and civic space a priority area in line with the SG's Prevention Agenda. The Eswatini UNSDCF Outcome 3 focuses on Accountable governance, justice and human rights where the co-leads are the Ministry of Justice & Constitutional Affairs and UNICEF under priority area 2 which is people. Other UN partners include OHCHR, UNDP, UNFPA, IOM and ILO.

Two of the main expected results include: 1) The capacity of civil society organizations, oversight bodies and government at national and regional levels is strengthened for good governance and human rights and 2) The capacity of rights-holders, particularly women, children, youth, persons with disabilities and other vulnerable and marginalized groups who are at risk of being left behind, to participate in decision-making processes, claim their rights, access justice and seek redress is strengthened. The national consultant(s) will report to the UN RCO in Mbabane, Eswatini. The consultancies are part of OHCHR's Surge Initiative Phase III in the areas of ESCRs, and SDGs.

The consultant(s) will work under the supervision of the Senior Human Rights Advisor, in close collaboration with other staff in the UN RCO in Mbabane, OHCHR HQ, with UN Country Team (UNCT) and other stakeholders in Eswatini.

  • Launch of CSO-Government-World Bank-UN platform to enhance civic engagement and promote transparency, inclusion, participation and accountability in the design, development and implementation of developmental projects in their communities.
