Role Description Under the Making Migration Safe for Women programme, the Economic Empowerment section is seeking to hire an international consultant to support the development of a policy brief on migrant women and disability. The paper will examine both the positive and negative experiences of migration for women with disabilities. It will consider how migration can support agency, autonomy and empowerment by enabling access to healthcare, social protection and economic opportunities. It will also examine the multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination, violence and exclusion that migrant women with disabilities may face, including the experiences of women who acquire, or experience the exacerbation of, disabilities in the context of migration. With a focus on mental health, psychosocial disabilities and physical disabilities arising from migration, the paper will explore the circumstances in which disabilities may arise or worsen. This includes: - Determinants influencing migration among women with disabilities - Exposure to risky or dangerous irregular migration routes - Experiences of gender-based violence and limited access to essential services - Barriers to decent work, social protection and safe labour conditions, including workplace injuries - The impact of detention on migrant women - Barriers to healthcare, including sexual and reproductive health services and mental health services To support the development of the policy brief, the consultant will also be responsible for the substantive preparation, organization, and documentation of a virtual consultation on the experiences of migrant women with disabilities, which will bring together diverse stakeholders, including: - Civil society organizations - Organizations of persons with disabilities (OPDs) - Women’s rights groups - Migrant-led organizations - International organizations - Academia - Individual experts - Relevant UN human rights mechanisms The virtual consultation will seek to capture lived experiences and perspectives of migrant women with disabilities, identify gaps in policy and practice, and explore more inclusive and gender-responsive approaches to migration governance. These findings along with key informant interviews (KIIs) will not only inform the development of the policy brief but also help ensure that its analysis and recommendations are grounded in the priorities and experiences of relevant stakeholders. The consultant will report to the Global Coordinator, Making Migration Safe for Women.
