CONSULTANT
Economist – Gender Inequality Econometric Modelling
Gender inequality in education, employment and health exists throughout the world and, as recognised by the 2012 Pacific Islands Forum, is of priority concern in the Pacific. Not only does this inequality negatively impact the well-being of the women who are being discriminated against, but has a negative impact on the whole society and reduces economic growth and development. The different ways that gender inequality impacts growth and development has been well-documented in a number of studies, including the 2007 ESCAP Economic and Social Survey of Asia and the Pacific. To estimate the macro-economic cost of gender inequality, Klassen et al. (commissioned by the World Bank Development Research Group) developed an econometric model to estimate the impact on GDP. This methodology has been used in a variety of countries; however, it has not been used in the Pacific.
The output of this consultancy will be to develop a robust methodology and Terms of Reference for assessing the cost of gender inequality in Pacific island countries. The methodology can be based on the Klassen methodology, but may need to be adjusted to accommodate specificities of Pacific island economies. Additionally, the methodology should rely on data which is currently available in the Pacific. The consultant should produce a TOR for phase II of the study. The TOR should justify the proposed model and discuss the main drivers of gender inequality in the Pacific, including the drivers that are captured by the model and the drivers that are not captured by the model.
Background Requirements
· Advanced university degree (Master’s degree or equivalent) in Economics or a related field.
· Proven work experience in the area of gender equality issues is required.
· Proven experience in economic research and analysis, including experience in macro-economic modelling.
· Experience in preparing detailed Terms of Reference.
· Experience in drafting analytical analyses and reports are required.
· Fluency in oral and written English is required.
· Experience working in the Pacific is desirable.
This is a desk study and will not require travel.

Работа на островах кука, но, как я понимаю, лишь для граждан стран содружества. однако, помня, сколько наших уже живёт в британии и проч. выкладываю:
COMMONWEALTH SECRETARIAT
Performance Management Adviser
Project Reference No:PGCOK0653
Post Title: Performance Management Adviser
Location: Rarotonga, Cook Islands
Duration:2 Years
Responsible to: Chief Executive Officer, Office of the Public Service Commissioner (OPSC),Cook Islands
Closing Date:11 January 2013

Project Background
The Cook Islands last engaged in major public sector reforms from 1995–1996, driven by financial crisis rooted in an expanding public sector, limited resource base and accelerating debt burden. These reforms reduced the number of ministries by about one-third and the number of civil servants from 3,200 in 1995 to 1,868 in 1996. The impact of this (and other) reform efforts is considered to have contributed to average gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 6% per annum from 1999 to 2004. However, minimal infrastructure investment, the impact of several cyclones, high inflation and the global economic crisis led to an economic contraction in the latter part of the decade. The economy is gradually recovering with growth of 0.5% in 2010, estimated growth of 1.1% in FY2011, and expectations of higher growth over the medium term.
Cook Islands' government is made up of 31 Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs). These comprise usual line Ministries as well as Departments and Agencies covering extra-Ministerial functions of Government. The government recognises that another public sector reform program will be essential for boosting economic management to maintain growth. This will go hand in hand with the commitment to the updated financial ratios: (i) tax revenue not to exceed 25% of GDP unless it is due to better compliance and efficiency; (ii) public sector wages and salaries not to exceed 44% of total revenue and to be reduced to 40% (iii) debt servicing not to exceed 5% of total revenue; (iv) overall deficit not to exceed 2% of GDP; and (v) net debt not to exceed 35% of GDP.
Public service as a proportion of the workforce has grown from 16% in 1996 to 18% in 2006, and it has been noted that the budget has tripled since the reforms with no corresponding improvement in the quality of service delivery. The assessment of the public service was endorsed by the current government when it assumed office in November 2010, signalling high-level commitment to further reforms. While the earlier reforms were driven by a financial crisis, the current reforms focus on strengthening leadership; stronger performance based on clear output requirements; greater efficiency; empowerment of the outer islands; and public–private partnerships.
The new Public Service Act 2009 provides the legislative Framework for further progress in reforming and modernising the public sectors. Concurrently, the Government of the Cook Islands has since 2011 been conducting a functional review of the public service with the support of an Asian Development Bank (ADB) with emphasis on raising performance. The ADB review has been broad-based across the public service, and has thus far recommended fine tuning of Ministry Structures, refocusing of efforts towards delivery of core functions within government departments, improvements to national planning and budgeting process, as well as the implementation of performance management systems.

Project Purpose
The purpose of the project is to embed Performance Management practices within the Government of the Cook Islands, facilitated by the OPSC.

Project Goal
The Project is ultimately expected to contribute to the improved performance of the Public Service in the Cook Islands characterised by the effective translation of Government mandates, strategies and plans into outputs delivering effective services and development outcomes resulting in high public confidence and satisfaction in the public service and Government.

Scope of Work

Summary of Project
The project will support OPSC to develop a robust Performance Management Framework alongside the necessary capacities to support its implementation. This project will ultimately strengthen the OPSC to fulfil its responsibilities under the new Public Service Act 2009. The developed Framework will enable the OPSC to lead Heads of Ministries and focus Government institutions to deliver on their mandates with greater transparency, accountability and effectiveness.

The immediate beneficiaries will be heads of agencies and their management teams who will have the guidance, tools and training they need to improve agency performance. The Central Agencies – OPSC, Ministry of Finance & Economic Management and the Office of the Prime Minister will be direct beneficiaries as the Framework and its components and improved capability across the service will assist them in meeting their mandates and supporting agencies to be effective and efficient. Ultimately the Cook Islands public will benefit from the improved performance of the public service.

Project Outputs
Output 1: Assessments of performance management practice across agencies of the CI public service. The assessment will consider both the institutional and legal fit of Performance Management within the GoCI and the Public Service Act.

Expected Activities to include:
§ Familiarisation with the relevant legislation, regulations, policies and data needed to develop appropriate performance management systems
§ Structured consultations with staff from the OPSC, the Prime Minister’s Office, Ministry of Finance and Economic Management, and Heads of Ministries (HOMs)
§ Analysis and production of an Implementation Plan for the development of the Performance Management Framework, its components, tools, training, and support system.
Output 2: Robust Performance Management Framework and attendant tools. This should respond to the challenges facing the GoCI as identified in Output 1, and be ‘institutionally designed’ to be managed by OPSC. The Framework should link strategy and planning to performance through setting clear expectations and commitments in the National Sustainable Development Plan (NSDP), sector plans, recruitment and appointment, business plans, work plans, project/initiative plans, individual performance agreements and development plans.

Expected Activities to include:
§ Development of Performance Management Framework
§ Development of a strategy for collection of baseline data to inform planning and performance management within the Public Service
§ Development of Performance Management component systems, processes and tools
§ Presentation and endorsement of Performance Management Framework by HOMs and OPSC

Output 3: Public sector managers trained and sensitised on the Performance Management Framework and Tools. This will include tailored training for HOMs and MDA management. A toolkit should also accompany the training and Performance Management Framework.

Expected Activities to include:
§ Design of training and mentoring programme and materials
§ Delivery of training and mentoring programme and materials
§ Assessment of training and mentoring programme and remaining needs

Output 4: Implementation and institutionalisation of Performance Management systems, process reviews, and coordination mechanisms across Government agencies. The number of agencies to receive Performance Management support during project duration will be defined with the OPSC Commissioner, HOMs and project expert.

Expected Activities to include:
§ Implementation of Performance Management systems across Government agencies
§ Working with Ministries to analyse baseline performance information to inform planning, decision making and performance monitoring
§ Process Review of the implementation of Performance Management systems
§ Implementation of monitoring and evaluation systems for the Performance Management Framework to enable the assessment of performance of the public service, government sectors, individual agencies, teams and individuals within those agencies and initiatives at all levels.

Implementation Arrangements
This project has been requested by OPSC, Cook Islands. The expert will be based at OPSC working with, and supported by, two performance analysts. The expert will report on a day to day basis and provide direct support to the OPSC Chief Executive Officer. The expert will also consult and work closely with the HOMs and ADB/NZ Govt. consultants in the implementation of the Performance Management Framework across the Government.
The Governance and Institutional Development Division (GIDD) of the Commonwealth Secretariat will provide technical support throughout the project, which will be developed, managed and monitored by the Technical Cooperation and Strategic Response Group (TCSRG).
The Expert engaged under the project will be expected to ascertain baseline indicators at the start of the project upon which to judge project progress towards its objectives. These will be presented in the inception report, and will be reported against in 6 monthly progress reports, as well as in the final report.

Transfer of Expertise
The Commonwealth Secretariat attaches particular importance to the transfer of expertise and knowledge to counterparts. The expert in his/her discussions with the Reporting Officer should draw attention to the need for key staff to be assigned as counterparts at the beginning of the assignment. This should be reported on in the Inception Report (due after two months). A training programme for key counterpart staff should be produced by the expert and agreed with the Reporting Officer. An update should be provided on this in the first Progress Report (due after six months).

Professional Experience & Qualifications
The successful candidate should possess the following:
§ A minimum of 10 years’ experience in developing and/or implementing Performance Management practices within the public sector.
§ Extensive experience of supporting evidence-based planning, decision making and reporting within the public sector.
§ Extensive experience in the conduct of institutional assessments, capacity needs assessments, training activities and capacity building in the public sector.
§ Proven experience in providing advice to senior-level government stakeholders.
§ Sound understanding of government operations and governance issues.
§ Proven experience of working with a wide range of stakeholders from the public and donor sector to generate collective effort.
§ Strong Interpersonal and communications skills.

UNV Assignment:
Coordinator Income Generation and Community Mobilization Programme
UN VOLUNTEER DESCRIPTION OF ASSIGNMENT
Preamble:
The United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme is the UN organization that promotes volunteerism to support peace and development worldwide. Volunteerism can transform the pace and nature of development and it benefits both society at large and the individual volunteer. UNV contributes to peace and development by advocating for volunteerism globally, encouraging partners to integrate volunteerism into development programming, and mobilizing volunteers.
In most cultures volunteerism is deeply embedded in long-established, ancient traditions of sharing and support within the communities. In this context, UN Volunteers take part in various forms of volunteerism and play a role in development and peace together with co-workers, host agencies and local communities.

In all assignments, UN Volunteers promote volunteerism through their action and conduct. Engaging in volunteer activity can effectively and positively enrich their understanding of local and social realities, as well as create a bridge between themselves and the people in their host community. This will make the time they spend as UN Volunteers even more rewarding and productive.
1. UNV Assignment Title: Coordinator Income Generation and Community Mobilization Programme
2. Type of Assignment: International UN Volunteer
3. Project Title: Human security initiative for “tensions” reduction, reconciliation and rehabilitation in the Solomon Islands
4. Duration: 12 months with possible extension
5. Location, Country: Honiara, Solomon Islands
6. Expected Starting Date: February 2013
7. Brief Project Description:
The Human security initiative for “tensions” reduction, reconciliation and rehabilitation in the Solomon Islands project (referred to henceforth in this document as the “Project”) is jointly formulated by the most active UN agencies within the country, with comparative advantages over their specialized mandates. Under this project, the participating agencies aim to translate into action two essential principles of the human security approach: “Freedom from Fear” and “Freedom from Want” with two context-specific priorities: (I) “tensions” prevention; and (II) community “rehabilitation” for the returned ex-combatants and their host communities. The ILO component of the Project will focus on addressing issues related to Freedom from Want. The ILO will seek to address the following Objectives, outlined in the project document:
Objective II-1:
To empower the economic security and promote sustainable livelihoods for the target communities and returned ex-combatants, through income-generation measures (ILO)
Objective II-2:
To improve the understanding of both communities and ex-combatants of the relevance of human rights and gender equality in order to strengthened forms of social security and decent work (ILO).
8. Host Agency/Host Institute:
Ministry of National Reconciliation, Unity and Peace (MNRUP), Honiara, Solomon Islands
9. Organizational Context:
The Solomon Islands is a country in Melanesia, east of Papua New Guinea, consisting of nearly one thousand islands, with a population of 523,000. The country has more than 70 language groups signifying its cultural diversity. While the Solomon Islands has long suffered from poverty, its acceleration of economic development has been doubly hampered by the outbreak of violent conflicts.
The conflict in the Solomon Islands, locally referred to as ‘the tensions’, began in 1998 when a group of militant youths from the island of Guadalcanal attacked settlements of islanders predominantly from Malaita in northwest Guadalcanal, an area bordering the capital city Honiara. The “tensions” resulted in hundreds of deaths as well as the displacement more than 30,000 people from and within the province of Guadalcanal. It also caused the massive destruction of infrastructure and key industries, the breakdown of the law and order system, and the virtual failure of democratic government.

In the years since the Townsville Peace Agreement and the arrival of the Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands (RAMSI), some sort of ‘peace’ has been restored in most areas of daily life. The RAMSI has assisted the SIG with the maintenance of law and order, the building of institutional capacity and the stabilization of government finances. In the Solomon Islands, RAMSI is assisting to develop the capacity and confidence of the community and institutions to work independently, effectively and self-sufficiently so they strengthened to govern their nation in a safe, transparent and accountable manner. They also contribute towards building greater knowledge and skills of the local counterparts. As a result, Solomon Islands people are prepared to reconcile over ethnic tensions in which thousands were displaced and an unknown number killed. There is still a need for community cohesion strengthening activities, which this part of the programme aims to strengthen. However, the structural drivers for conflict—poverty and relative deprivation; outstanding grievances, often playing out along ethnic lines; concentration of disaffected youth/ex-combatants in large numbers in the capital Honiara and Guadalcanal and Malaita provinces; climate of distrust and division between communities; elite/political capture and manipulation of resources; and political exclusion, disempowerment and brinkmanship— all remain. This combination of factors constitutes severe and ever-present threats to human security in the Solomon Islands.

14. Living Conditions:
Honiara, the capital of Solomon Islands, is with a population of approximately 60,000, is a multi ethnic and multicultural place of mostly Melanesians, with minorities of Polynesians, Chinese and several other minorities. Melanesians predominate in the Solomon Islands.
About 80% of the population live in the rural areas and are engaged in subsistence farming and fishing. The rate of urbanization is very high with high unemployment. There is opportunistic burglary but no grave crime. Serious crimes are often related to family, land or tribal disputes. Nevertheless, UN Volunteers are required to take precaution and security measures. Because of the geographical location of the islands and the weather patterns, transportation is often unreliable and only some islands are accessible by plane, while the rest of the rural areas are accessible only by either boat or by walking, making transportation very time consuming and expensive.
The quality of medical service and health facilities is low and often lacks most of the basic necessities in terms of equipment, мята and medical supplies. There are two UN Doctors in Honiara who can offer basic medical services, and medical facilities are very limited. Modest accommodation is available in Honiara but the number of houses for expatriates is limited and rentals are presently costly. Food, fuel, electricity, internet and water prices are also quite high. There are beautiful beaches and waterfalls for recreation purposes.
The Solomon Islands climate is hot and humid, moderated by ocean breezes most days. The hotter and wetter season is from November to April, but rain can fall any time throughout the year. Daytime temperatures average around 30 ° C (87°F) and the nights around 240C. Tropical cyclones form in the nearby seas during the wet season but rarely affect Honiara directly.
The majority of the expatriates working in Solomon Islands are Honiara-based. English is widely understood, but the common lingua-franca is Solomon Pijin English. There are currently a couple of UN Volunteers based in the Solomon Islands.


15. Conditions of Service
A 12 month contract; monthly volunteer living allowance (VLA) intended to cover basic needs and utilities equivalent to USD 2575 for single person, USD 2825 for person with one dependent, and USD 3025 for person with two or more recognized dependents will be provided. In addition the successful UN Volunteer will also receive a settling in grant; health, and permanent disability insurance; return airfares; resettlement allowance of USD 150 per month of satisfactory service. All UN Volunteers are required to follow the Revised UNV Conditions of Service which came into effect in September 2008.
Deadline for applications: 22 January, 2013. To apply to this post, kindly register yourself in our UNV Roster at https://ereta.unv.org/html/index.php?mo ... nmyprofile, and send your resume and application letter to: lioba.vandam@undp.org, CCing alesi.ali@undp.org.

Работа для медработников- добровольцев.
Tonga: Village Mission Clinic Tonga: Volunteer Medical Practitioner
The Village Mission Clinic requires a well-trained and experienced general practitioner. Ideally we are looking for long-term people who will commit at least a year and make an effort to understand and learn the local culture and language. However short-term health professionals can also make a valuable contribution not only with the service they offer patients but by encouraging and educating the local and long-term staff. The minimum stay is 3 months as less than that is not economically viable for this volunteer-based clinic.
The Village Mission Clinic is a well-respected, general family medicine practice originally based in a large village, Ha’ateiho, in central Tongatapu, 9km from the capital Nuku'alofa and 4km from the government base hospital. Dr Glennis Mafi and her husband Mr Manu Mafi started it in 1984. They ran it for most of the first 17 years and have continued to oversee it since 2001. It is closely associated with the Village Mission Pharmacy in Nuku’alofa (owned by the Village Mission Trust, Tonga) and since May 2010 the clinic has worked solely from the Village Mission Pharmacy rooms in Nuku’alofa because most clientele are there. It has clients from all over Tongatapu and even from the outer islands. Most are Tongans but there are also Europeans, Chinese, Indians and others.
Case work covers the whole spectrum of health problems and there is potential for research in many areas. Non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and ischaemic heart disease are major health problems in Tonga. The clinic is particularly well known for expertise in dermatology (and for the availability of a wider range of skin preparations than the government pharmacy), but any GP working there can develop his/her own area of special expertise.
The clinic is a “Mission” - i.e. it is not a profit-making business. All income is from patient fees; there are no government subsidies and only occasional donations from a variety of sources. Nor is any person or any organisation making any profit from the clinic. The clinic provides accommodation in Ha’ateiho (not full board) and a living allowance. Currently this is $500 (TOP). This is sufficient to cover food, electricity, internet, phone, bus fares and most weekend activities for two people. The Village Mission Clinic currently provides accommodation in Ha'ateiho. Generally
the clinic cannot pay the doctor’s airfare, but this depends on the clinic’s income and the time committed by the doctor. We try to pay the doctor's airfare equivalent to Auckland - Tonga return if the contract is for six months or more. This can be negotiated. This work does require the good will and support of health professionals and others associated with it. The attraction of this position is not money but the interest and challenge of the work and its environment.

Registration to practice medicine in Tonga is granted by the Health Practitioners Registration Council of the Tongan Ministry of Health. The council meets only monthly (sometimes less) so ideally the application needs to be lodged 3 months before the starting date. If you are interested in volunteering with the VMC, please contact us well in advance.

Work Permits depend on registration being granted. Medical check including chest x-rays and police clearance are required for every work visa and any adults accompanying them.
The clinic pays the registration and work permit application fees in Tonga.
