Deadline: Ongoing Opportunity

The UN Women is seeking applications for the UNCT-SWAP Gender Equality Scorecard course to better understand the UNCT-SWAP content and process.

This module is an addition to the ‘I Know Gender’ online learning courses. The recommendation is to undertake the UNCT SWAP on the occasion of the CCA/UNSDCF roll-out but it will also work during the UNSDCF implementation timeline. By the end of the course, participants will have a better understanding of what the UNCT-SWAP framework and performance indicators are and how it relates to the work of UN country teams.  Participants will also learn how the UNCT-SWAP grew out of key mandates and commitments on gender equality and women’s empowerment across the UN system.

Audience 

• UN personnel who play a lead role in coordinating and monitoring UNCT-SWAP implementation (chair(s) of the Gender Theme Group (GTG) or Inter- Agency Team (IAT), RCO focal points); RCs and UNCT HoAs who oversee UNCT-SWAP implementation and monitoring efforts with support from the GTG, and UN personnel who lead and/or are members of interagency groups governed by the Scorecard Performance Indicators (GTG, OMT, M&E Group, Results Groups, UNCG); all UN personnel members who are interested in learning more about systemwide accountability for gender mainstreaming at the country level.

IT Requirements 

• A Portable Document Format (PDF) viewer and Flash software is needed in order to view the course. Please note that the course will open in a separate pop-up window, therefore please ensure that pop-up blockers are de-activated. The participant will need a set of headphones or speakers as the course includes audio throughout the entire course.
