The gender team at UNDP is looking for online volunteers to support in the review and generation of existing legal and policy evidence which can inform policy on women as defacto co-managers in family businesses. The volunteers will: 1) Contribute to generating data and understanding of spousal co-management of fisheries and other family business. 2) Identify good spousal co-management practices adopted by other small family businesses which can inform legislation and policy framework (evidence-based policy making) on family businesses as a mechanism for enhancing social protection and jobs for women co-managers. 3) Identify implementation and monitoring opportunities and challenges of fisheries law related to spousal co-management and how these challenges are being addressed?

    Gender inequalities are one of the major causes of poverty worldwide. Around 70 percent of the world’s poor are women, of which the majority are rural women from developing countries. UNDP is undertaking a mapping exercise to identify existing legislation and policy frameworks on women as co-managers and co-owners in family business/farms including fisheries. The expected output of the project would be a report presenting an overview of the Fisheries Act with case studies that demonstrate the achievements, experience in adopting co- management / collaborative spouse principles in fisheries and other sectors, best practices in implementation, implementation process and challenges and how they have been addressed.

  • Volunteers: 5 needed

  • 6-10 hours per week / 5 weeks

    Candidates need to be fluent in French. Any other language would be an advantage.
