The International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) is the world’s largest non-governmental organization working in the field of sexual reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information and services. It has six Regional Offices worldwide. The IPPF Africa Regional Office (IPPFARO) is based in Nairobi, Kenya, while the international secretariat is in London, UK.

Headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, IPPF Africa Region delivers its critical mission thanks to 33 Member Associations (MAs), 9 Collaborative Partners, youth advocates, staff, and a network of dedicated volunteers who provide high quality, youth focused and gender sensitive services to those who are most vulnerable and marginalized. The MAs are national organizations that have a long-standing history of delivering SRHR services, often in extremely difficult circumstances. They work in close partnership with the Government, private clinics, community-based distributors and civil society organizations.

To this effect, IPPFAR is looking to recruit a short-term consultant to undertake a mapping exercise/stock-take and engage with key regional and national actors in Sub-Saharan Africa to identify progress made towards the commitments outlined within key regional policy documents, e.g., Maputo Plan of Action, SADC SRHR Regional Strategy 2019-2030 and identify key entry points to expand/revise regional policy documents to include, where possible, comprehensive GLC recommendation.

The assignment is expected to take a maximum of 8 days from 15 May to 15 June 2022.
