Duration of Consultancy : 50 days over the period of three months (mid-September mid- December 2026), subject to medical clearance. Nature of the consultancy: Category B Consultancy. Project Context and Scope: Countries in North Africa are advancing the enhancement and implementation of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) 3.0, with increasing recognition of the need to systematically integrate climate-related loss and damage into adaptation planning, transparency processes, and climate finance efforts. Loss and Damage is increasingly reflected across national policy instruments, including NDCs, National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), disaster risk reduction strategies, and other climate policy frameworks. Within the sub-region, countries have started incorporating elements of economic assessment and financial consideration related to climate impacts leading to loss and damage in sectors such as water, agriculture, and coastal systems. At the same time, institutional, technical, methodological, and data-related gaps continue to limit consistent and policy-relevant assessment and reporting of Loss and Damage. Established approaches, including government-led Post-Disaster Needs Assessments, Sendai Framework disaster-loss indicators, UNFCCC technical guidance and sector-specific assessment methodologies, provide complementary foundations for assessing disaster and climate impacts, identifying recovery needs and strengthening national reporting. However, their uptake, institutionalization and interoperability with national climate, disaster-risk and statistical systems remain uneven, and information is not always effectively connected across sectors, institutions and policy processes. In response, IOM and UN Development Programme (UNDP) Regional Hub for Arab States are collaborating on this research study to support governments in North Africa by developing practical and adaptable approaches to estimate and cost economic and non-economic Loss and Damage across sectors, hazards, and affected populations. The approach developed under this joint initiative will strengthen connections among existing methodologies, datasets and institutional processes, and give particular attention to dimensions related to human mobility, gender-differentiated impacts, non-economic loss and slow-onset impacts, while recognizing varying levels of national data readiness. The consultancy will also address the data-systemic dimensions of Loss and Damage assessment by proposing practical approaches to organize, triangulate and translate climate risk, disaster loss, sectoral, population, mobility and qualitative evidence into policy-relevant estimates and narratives. The methodology is also expected to help strengthen the evidence base for future investment planning and climate finance engagement. Given the accelerated timeline, the consultancy will prioritize the development of a robust methodological framework and 2 country-specific illustrative applications rather than full country-level validation or implementation.

IOM invites candidates from diverse backgrounds to apply and provides reasonable accommodation throughout the recruitment process when required. Learn more about IOM s workplace culture at IOM workplace culture | International Organization for Migration Project Context and Scope Egypt plays a strategic geopolitical position in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region as a country of origin, transit, and destination for migrants, and experiences significant mixed migration flows both into and out of its territory. These flows include irregular movements across land and sea borders, often involving vulnerable populations, including women and children with specific protection and assistance needs. Effective border management strategies recognize the significance of incorporating a gender perspective and the mainstreaming of gender equality principles across all border security functions, alongside strengthened protection for people on the move. This approach enables responses that are sensitive to the distinct needs and experiences of diverse groups, particularly the most vulnerable, such as victims of trafficking, asylum-seekers, refugees, and migrants. Thereby enhancing migrant safety and improving targeted outreach based on gender and age. In contrast, failure to address gender-specific considerations can result in ineffective decision-making and negative impacts on individuals rights, opportunities, and broader national and international security. Understanding the gender dimensions of migration and systematically integrating this perspective into border management practices is therefore essential for border authorities to address cross-border movements in an effective, efficient, and rights-based manner. Through the delivery of capacity-building support to its Member States, IOM contributes to strengthening the capacity of border authorities to protect migrants and adopt gender-responsive border management approaches. In response, and in support of the Government of Egypt s efforts to strengthen rights-based and protection-centred border management, this action seeks to enhance national capacities on mainstreaming gender in their operational work. This will be achieved through building understanding of key concepts underpinning mainstreaming gender in border governance, supporting the development of gender-sensitive migration policies and analyses, promoting the adoption of gender-responsive procedures at borders, and strengthening responses to the vulnerabilities of specific groups of migrants at points of entry.
