Rooted in Global Affairs Canada’s (GAC) Feminist International Assistance Policy, the role will generate knowledge and evidence on GESI dynamics and Indigenous knowledge systems to inform inclusive, rights-based policies, programmes, and investments. It will also support the implementation of ICIMOD’s commitments under the HI-CAS project by ensuring that women, Indigenous Peoples, and disadvantaged groups are not only meaningfully engaged but also empowered as agents of change and equitably benefit from project interventions.
