Consultancy services: Program Manager pour le ‘‘Free to Be Me en Tunisie’’’
Location: Tunis
Duration: 4 months
Closing date for application: September 10, 2023
Introduction
The Association for the Promotion of the Right to Difference (ADD), with support from Hivos, is facilitating the Free to Be Me program in Tunisia, a multi-year program aiming to bring together organizations and individuals that will contribute to advancing LGBTQI+ leadership in advocating for social and economic rights and bring an alliance of organizations that are experienced and strongly committed to improving the lives of LGBTQ+ people in Tunisia through a Community of Action (CoA). The ADD is commissioning a needs assessment to develop a detailed understanding of the Tunisian CoA and identify priority actions that could maximize the project’s contribution to the global and localized Theory of Change of the F2BM program.
About Free to be Me
Free To Be Me is an ambitious, daring and innovative 5-year program that will help build a vibrant
LGBTIQ+ movement that is confident and capable to lobby and advocate for their human and economic rights. Our alliance comprises three consortium members
– Hivos, ILGA World, and Positive Vibes and three technical partners Sogicampaigns, the Global Interfaith Network (GIN), and Workplace Pride.
Together we will coach, accompany, fund and train LGBTIQ+ persons and organizations to influence norms and attitudes, generate (public) support, and promote laws, policies and regulations that recognize, respect and protect LGBTIQ+ people’s rights. Brave and persistent LGBTIQ+ activists around the world have built communities, taken to the streets, filed lawsuits and advocated for their rights, in the past decades. Thanks to their lobby and advocacy, “sexual orientation” is enshrined in protective laws in more than 80 countries. In many countries media and cultural productions are more diverse, while allies such as human rights and women’s organizations, progressive religious
leaders, large and small businesses, social influencers and creatives increasingly and publicly – support LGBTIQ+ rights.
However, there remains a lot to fight for. Consensual same-sex intimacy is criminalized in 69 countries, and access to appropriate IDs is impossible for many trans and intersex people. Legal provisions are used to harass and detain LGBTQ+ people, while legislation that explicitly protects them remains absent. Intersex people are subjected to medical and societal abuse. And, due to a lack of meaningful, coordinated efforts, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC)are still excluded from many socioeconomic development agendas, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The programme is implemented in 14 countries including Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Ghana, Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, The Philippines, Indonesia and The Netherlands.
The project seeks to achieve the following 4 outcomes:
Outcome 1: In scoping and core countries LGBTIQ+ civil society is vibrant, stronger, more self -confident and diverse and in core countries also sustainably resourced, with the capacity to lead on legal and policy changes
Outcome 2: Societal leaders, influencers, media and the general public increasingly and openly support the rights of LGBTIQ+ people (mainly core countries).
Outcome 3: At least five core countries have made significant legal or policy progress – changed abusive or criminalizing laws, ended impunity and/or adopted protective laws.
Outcome 4: Socioeconomic actors implement activities/ change policies promoting equal socio-economic rights of LGBTIO+ people.
