IUCN ESARO is implementing the following two of its field projects – 1) Building River
Dialogues and Governance (BRIDGE) funded by Swiss Development and Cooperation and
whose aim is to catalyse transboundary water resources management and development,
safeguard water supply and sanitation and biodiversity conservation; and 2) Climate resilient
transboundary water management in Eastern Africa (CREATES) funded by Denmark and
whose aim is to enhance transboundary water management to support development and
regional integration. This is proposed and is still being developed. // The overall objective of this consultancy is to conduct gender equality and social inclusion
analysis in the project areas to identify key challenges and to develop an action plan to address
these challenges while creating opportunities for diverse members of the society to provide
input on their needs and experiences, building capacity for stakeholders to integrate theses
needs into the project activities. These actions will ensure that gender is mainstreamed in
every stage of the project, from (development to) implementation to monitoring and evaluation.
