Introduction

Country: The Gambia

Description of the Assignment: National Individual Human Rights Consultant to advance Post TRRC Project goals

Period of assignment/services: 35 working days over 2 months

SCOPE OF THE WORK

The consultancy will support the implementation of the post-TRRC project. The consultant will be responsible for support to the NHRC and CSOs, firstly, to disseminate the TRRC recommendations as widely as possible and call for their implementation, while calling for gender equality and impunity for SGBV crimes to be addressed. The Project will support coordination between CSOs and the NHRC to strengthen impact of their related interventions. Considering its mandate, the NHRC will also be supported to provide evidence-based advice to the Government on peoples’ expectations on the implementation of TRRC recommendations, as well as correlations between these and other recommendations by the Special Rapporteur on Truth, the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances, recommendations from the Human Rights Committee and the Universal Periodic Review.

Core tasks include:

• Support the NHRC in the monitoring of the implementation of the TRRC recommendations through the production of a report on the inclusion of women, youth, and persons with disabilities.
• Build the capacity of CSOs to interact with UN treaty bodies and special mechanisms and provide relevant support in respect of any reporting scheduled to take place during the consultancy period. Train CSOs on how to engage with the soon to be set up National Mechanism for Reporting and Follow up (NMRF) mechanism.
