Duties and Responsibilities

Background: Persons with disabilities in the Arab region are one of the most marginalized and excluded population groups. They remain excluded from participating in public life due to several barriers. Social and physical surroundings are inaccessible, and their educational achievements and employment rates are significantly lower than those without disabilities. This situation is perpetuated and aggravated by environmental and social barriers, discriminatory attitudes, and inaccessible facilities. In humanitarian crises and situations of armed conflict, the number of persons with disabilities increases along with their limited access to assistance, services, and livelihoods. They also often face heightened protection concerns due to the breakdown of community structures and social cohesion. Despite the difficult situation of persons with disabilities in the Arab region, many ESCWA member States have made progressive steps towards higher inclusivity. All ESCWA member states signed or ratified the CRPD and have developed enabling legal and policy frameworks, best practices, and success stories of empowering persons with disabilities. ESCWA is mandated to provide technical support to member States in adopting a rights-based approach to equitable, inclusive, and participatory social development toward achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. ESCWA has an extensive body of knowledge on disability issues in the Arab region; regularly carries out studies on disability-related issues, policies, and best practices in the region; monitors implementation of certain aspects of the CRPD and SDGs by the Arab States; delivers thematic expert group meetings and workshops for member States on subjects important for the region; and has access to an extensive network of experts on disability-related matters. Due to the increased demand for ESCWA's assistance to member states on disability-related issues, a Disability Research Assistant is needed to contribute to the work of the disability team. The research assistant will cooperate closely and report to ESCWA’s Regional Adviser on Disability. Duties and Responsibilities Under the guidance of the Regional Adviser on Disability, the Individual contractor will be responsible for the following tasks: • Assist in researching disability-related topics to enhance disability inclusion in ESCWA member states. • Prepare reports, presentations, tables, lists, charts, data sets, and/or diagrams in order to facilitate the analysis and/or use of the retrieved information by the supervisor; • Assist in preparing and reporting the Technical Assistance missions to Member States, including workshop materials, PowerPoints, media coverage, and documentation • Support research on disability assessment and determination tools. • Assist in the preparation and review of written outputs published by ESCWA e.g. policy briefs, background papers, technical papers, sections of reports and studies, inputs to publications • Assist in adapting the ‘Family-based Early Intervention Package’ for children with disabilities from 0 to 5 years for its use at the Social Development Centers in Lebanon. • Assist in finalizing and printing out the ‘Family-based Early Intervention Package’ for children with disabilities from 0 to 5 years • Assist in the conduction of a situational analysis of the rights of persons with disabilities in Libya and the development of the National Disability Strategy • Support the validation workshop and finalizing a project document on the implementation mechanisms of CBID in the Syrian Arab Republic • Prepare minutes of meetings and perform a wide range of office support and administrative functions. • Conduct other duties as requested.
