UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

In South Africa, UN Women contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (Cooperation Framework) 2020-2025, within the context of UN Delivering as One. The Cooperation Framework supports the achievement of the international development goals, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in line with national, regional, and global development priorities. It is aligned to South Africa´s long-term National Development Plan (NDP) 2030, which recognises the environment and science and technology as central drivers of change, and the Medium-Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) 2019-2024, and firmly anchored in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the UN Charter and the localization of global norms and standards on gender equality and women’s empowerment (GEWE). UN Women is mandated to lead, coordinate, and promote the accountability of the UN system in its work on GEWE. Under this mandate and in line with the 2020 Quadrennial Comprehensive Policy Review (QCPR), UN Women provides technical and coordination support across the UN system in South Africa to deliver results for diverse groups of women and girls.

Towards this end, UN Women serves as the secretariat for the UN Gender Theme Group which is a mechanism for Coordination of work on gender equality in South Africa and countries under its purview, supporting the Resident Coordinator as the group’s chair, to strengthen the UN’s contribution to advancing GEWE. In this capacity, UN Women also provides substantive support for the implementation of the UN System-Wide Action Plan (UNCT-SWAP). The UN System in South Africa has developed a Common Country Analysis (CCA) and is operating under the current UNSDCF 2020-2025. In the context of UN reform, the UNSDCF is the key planning and operational framework, outlining the UN’s support to Agenda 2030 and the SDGs. The UN Gender Theme Group has a key role to play in ensuring that GEWE is strategically positioned across the CCA and UNSDCF, in line with the global norms set out in the UNCT-SWAP Scorecard, and to ensure the participation of diverse groups of women and girls. The UN Gender Coordination Mechanisms also provides an important opportunity for the UN to coordinate its support to Government and CSO partners as well the Private Sector working to advance the rights of women and girls, including the implementation of the National Development Plan (NDP), the National Gender Policy and the implementation of the normative framework.

The UNCT in South Africa has increasingly focused on addressing the intersections between gender and other key issues within the Leaving No One Behind (LNOB) agenda, such as disability inclusion, including through strengthening coordination across these critical issues.

Reporting to the UN Women Deputy Representative, the Coordination Specialist will work in close collaboration with UN Women’s East and Southern Africa Regional Office, and the Resident Coordinator’s Office (RCO), to support the UNCT in achieving greater normative, operational, and institutional coherence on GEWE and as required, to connect the UN system internally and externally with key government and civil society partners.

**Duties and Responsibilities**:
**Manage Inter-Agency coordination on GEWE** and LNOB** **to achieve a coherent and aligned presence for the UN portfolio in **South Africa**
- Provide substantive technical support to the South Africa RCO and UNCT on Inter-Agency coordination on GEWE+LNOB related activities;
- Support and provide technical support on the coordination of GEWE in countries also covered by SAMCO, i.e. Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho and Namibia, working closely with GEWE Coordination Analysts and RCOs;
