• Organisation: International Planned Parenthood Federation
• Contract: Consultancy
• Deadline: 23 September 2026

1. Background and Rationale

We are updating and expanding our internal SGBV Fundamentals Package to make sure our teams have clear, high-quality, and practical guidance across humanitarian and development nexus.

Rather than starting from scratch, we are building directly on our existing training package and integrating core IPPF technical resources—specifically their toolkits on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR), SGBV response, First Line Response LIVES/PFA, Primary Prevention, Risk Mitigation, and MEAL (Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning).

The Global SGBV Advisor is leading this process and needs a dedicated Technical Assistant / Co-Writer to work side-by-side with her. The consultant will help organize, write, adapt, and format the updated package into clear learning modules and practical tools.

2. Core Purpose & Working Modality

This is a hands-on, collaborative role. The Consultant will work in direct technical partnership with the Global SGBV Advisor, who will set the overall strategy, share existing internal materials, provide technical inputs, and lead validation.

The Consultant will serve as the primary co-writer—helping bring together the IPPF toolkits, refine the package structure, draft user-friendly guidance, and create facilitator and participant materials.

3. Scope of Work

Task 1: Mapping & Gap Integration

• Review our current SGBV Fundamentals Package alongside IPPF’s technical suites (SRHR, SGBV, PSS, Primary Prevention, Risk Mitigation, and MEAL guidelines).

• Work closely with the Global SGBV Advisor to identify missing pieces and map out clear integration points across the Humanitarian-Development Nexus (HDN).

Task 2: Content Upgrade across Core Pillars & MEAL

Collaborate with the Advisor to update technical guidance across four core areas:

• SGBV Response & SRHR/PSS Integration: Survivor-centered care, First Line Response LIVES/PFA, clinical SRHR linkages, and structured PSS tools.

• SGBV Risk Mitigation: Sector safety audits, risk identification, and practical integration for health and non-protection settings.

• SGBV Prevention: Social norm change, community engagement, and prevention strategies adaptable to both acute crisis and longer-term development contexts.

• MEAL in SGBV: Ethical data management, indicator tracking, feedback channels, and monitoring tools aligned with IPPF standards.

Task 3: Tailoring Content for Target Audiences

Co-draft and adapt the updated material into distinct, accessible learning tracks for three specific groups:

• Non-Protection & Operational Staff (HR, Ops, Finance, Logistics): Core principles, PSEA, Do No Harm, safe identification, and referral pathways.

• Health Workers (Clinicians, Nurses, Midwives, Community Health Workers): Integrating SRHR and SGBV care, clinical and First Line response LIVES/PFA response, survivor communication, and facility safety.
