Intern Global support: LGBTIQ+ portfolio

Thailand, Bangkok, Bangkok - UN Women

Background UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of gender-based discrimination, the empowerment of women and girls in all their diversity, and the achievement of gender equality across the nexus of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.   At the heart of these obligations is the notion that all persons have an equal right to live free from violence and discrimination, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ+) persons. However, across the world, many people face social, political and economic exclusion and human rights violations based on their actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics (SOGIESC) – with women and gender diverse persons facing added challenges that are common to and unique from other women's experiences.   UN Women recognizes, as part of the global context in its Strategic Plan (2022-2025), that 'women and girls who experience multiple forms of discrimination, including based on age, class, disability, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender identity or migration status have made the least progress'. With this awareness and propelled by its commitment to leave no one behind in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, UN Women is working to advance the human rights of LGBTIQ+ persons. UN Women has since established its first-ever, dedicated LGBTIQ+ Rights Specialist post (herein 'the specialist'). This enhanced global leadership brings a more concerted, intersectional LGBTIQ+ lens to discourses and actions on human rights and gender equality in the UN system and beyond. UN Women's global LGBTIQ+ portfolio is housed in the headquarters' Policy, Programme and Intergovernmental Division (PPID) to support broader objectives of setting programmatic standards and quality of programme design, providing technical guidance and building of capacity at country level, and additionally supporting UN coordination, providing policy expertise and building evidence, and advising intergovernmental processes. Although a global role, the specialist is based in the regional office for Asia and the Pacific to deepen these functions with a focus on supporting field presences.   This internship has been created to broadly provide support in the above-mentioned goals.
