Risk Management

ToR

Seeking proposals from specialized institutions or consultants to enhance the risk management capacities of the WSC.

Introduction:

 WSC is an independent secular non-governmental feminist organization concerned with women’s/human rights and works to promote gender equality and strengthen women’s rights as human rights. Since its founding in 1989, the Center has worked through many programs and projects to empower women and build female cadres capable of identifying their needs.

Since its founding, the Center has struggled alongside the components of the Palestinian feminist movement with a developmental rights perspective in order to reshape the traditional structures of the social, economic, political, and legislative systems in a way that ensures the inclusion of women in all development processes as participants and beneficiaries, based on the principle of the right to full equality between the sexes.

As part of the "strengthening Women’s Participation in the Labour Market in Palestine" project, funded by the Austrian Development Agency (ADA), the Women’s Studies Center is seeking to engage a consultant. The objective is to enhance the Center's capabilities in crisis and disaster management by developing crisis response methods, implementing emergency response plans, and enhancing crisis management proficiency. Additionally, the consultant will facilitate the application of best practices in risk, crisis, and emergency management, encompassing organizational strategies, tools, and methodologies. This initiative aims to ensure the continued success and advancement of the center, allowing it to effectively fulfill its vision and mission of promoting gender equality and advocating for women's rights. Part of this endeavor involves identifying and assessing existing and potential risks and implementing necessary measures to mitigate their severity and minimize their impact on the center and its personnel.
