Through the advisory support of TAF, hosted by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Gender Advisor will provide advisory support and recommendations for the UIIF project and institutional mechanisms, highlighting strengths, gaps, and weaknesses. The outcome of this adivsory support will ultimately provide the project team with a tailored support package, which includes a series of calls, a gap analysis and recommendations report, individualised action plan tailored to the needs of the entity, documented implementation advice, and one virtual peer learning workshop.

Such advisory support will provide the project team with technical knowledge about implementing gender-responsiveness in project work, empowering ICLEI to further mainstream gender across other activities.
