Gender inequality remains a major barrier to human development and gender disparities are a persistent form of inequality all around the world. There is a deep, pervasive and relentless pushback on women’s rights and the advancement of gender justice, which DCA has an obligation and commitment to fight against from a transformative gender equality perspective. We are looking for a Senior Advisor to join an organisation with an unwavering and integral commitment to Gender Equality. Our new Senior Advisor must be a dynamic and visionary person who will take leadership of our already strong gender platform and drive it forward, developing new approaches and pursuing new opportunities for greater impact where we work.
