UN Women Consultant for Youth-Led Training of Trainers on TFGBV, Home-based, International Consultant

BACKGROUND:

UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

As the lead UN entity on gender equality and secretariat of the UN Commission on the Status of Women, we shift laws, institutions, social behaviors and services to close the gender gap and build an equal world for all women and girls. Our partnerships with governments, women’s movements and the private sector coupled with our coordination of the broader United Nations translate progress into lasting changes. We make strides forward for women and girls in four areas: leadership, economic empowerment, freedom from violence, and women, peace and security as well as humanitarian action. UN Women keeps the rights of women and girls at the center of global progress – always, everywhere. Because gender equality is not just what we do. It is who we are.  

UN Women Knowledge and Partnerships Centre in ROK  

The UN Women Knowledge and Partnerships Centre in the Republic of Korea was established in 2022 under the Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific, in collaboration with the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family (MOGEF) of the Republic of Korea (RoK). Located in Seoul, the Centre operates on a shared mandate to advance gender equality and the empowerment of women (GEWE). It serves as a regional platform for in-depth learning and exchange of experiences, generation of gender data, and research production—contributing to more effective responses to gender inequality and the transformation of harmful social norms in the rapidly evolving social landscape of Asia and the Pacific. 

Addressing technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) is one of the Centre’s strategic priorities, with a particular focus on strengthening measurement, prevention and response. As digital technologies continue to shape the lives of women and girls, new forms of violence are emerging and evolving, requiring innovative, evidence-based and prevention-oriented approaches.

Among these, non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII) has become an increasingly urgent form of TFGBV affecting adolescents and young people. NCII does not occur solely between a victim-survivor and a perpetrator; rather, it unfolds within wider peer and digital ecosystems, including classrooms, group chats, friendship networks and online communities. In many such situations, the majority of young people are neither direct victims nor perpetrators, but witnesses or bystanders. However, existing prevention efforts often focus primarily on deterring perpetration or encouraging individual protective behaviours, while paying limited attention to the role of bystanders in shaping responses to harm.

Against this backdrop, the Centre is developing a peer-led intervention programme aimed at transforming bystanders into active and supportive upstanders. This initiative is informed by qualitative research with adolescents in the Republic of Korea, which found that many young people who witness incidents of NCII want to help, but often do not act because they are unsure of what to say or fear making the situation worse. These findings point to a critical witness–action gap, rooted not only in awareness, but also in a lack of practical communication skills and confidence to intervene safely and supportively.

To support this initiative, UN Women Knowledge and Partnerships Centre seeks to engage a Consultant for Youth-Led Training of Trainers on TFGBV to develop a peer-to-peer training module informed by UN Women’s approaches and guidance on violence against women prevention. The Consultant will work under the supervision of the Research and Data Specialist at the UN Women Knowledge and Partnerships Centre in the Republic of Korea and will have no supervisory responsibilities.
