The ECOWAS Programme on Gender Mainstreaming in Energy Access (ECOW-GEN), since its establishment, in 2013 has worked to steer ECOWAS Member States towards the direction of mainstreaming gender in policy formulation, legislative drafting, energy project and programme design and implementation, with the intention to promote equality in energy development through equal access to resources and equal contribution to the decision-making processes that shape and influence energy expansion in West Africa.
During the pilot phase (2013 – 2014) and the first programmatic cycle (2015 – 2019), ECOW-GEN produced the regional policy, the ECOWAS Policy for Gender Mainstreaming in Energy Access, and the legal framework, the ECOWAS Directive for Gender Assessment in Energy Projects. Moreover, ECOW-GEN established a facility for technical and financial assistance to support development of women-led energy businesses in West Africa, among other milestone achievements. In the second programmatic cycle (2020 – 2024), ECOW-GEN thrives to consolidate the achievements made at the regional level by strengthening the capacity of ECOWAS Member States to institutionalize and replicate the objectives of the programme at the national/grassroot level.
In view of the above, ECREEE is seeking a Junior Gender-Energy Expert, as programme assistant, to support in the implementation of the programme activities in accordance with the Terms of Reference (ToR) attached.
