About JASS
Just Associates (JASS) is a feminist movement strengthening organisation rooted in the majority world. Founded in 2001 by activist organisers, researchers, popular educators and movement thinkers, we work to build, strengthen and accompany movements across Southeast Asia, Southern Africa, and Mesoamerica, anchored in feminist popular education (FPE).

This is an integrated political and organisational leadership role. JASS has deliberately designed the Regional Director position to hold both dimensions in tension — and in productive dialogue — because the organization believes that political strategy without organisational coherence risks fragmentation, while organisational management without political grounding risks losing connection to the movements it exists to serve. The two dimensions reinforce one another: a leader who can translate between political vision and organisational logic is essential to building a region that is both strategically sharp and institutionally strong.

The Regional Director for Mesoamerica is a senior leadership position with responsibility for:

Providing strategic political leadership to JASS Mesoamerica — shaping movement-building strategy, political analysis and regional positioning.

Providing organisational leadership and oversight — coordinating people, programmes and specialist functions around that strategy, rather than serving as the technical specialist in each function.

Contributing to JASS' global strategic direction as a member of the senior leadership team, bringing regional political analysis and movement knowledge into executive decision-making.

At its core, this is a role that requires a high level of coordination and alignment building as part of a integrator role. The Regional Director connects political strategy, programme work, people and organisational functions; creates coherence across the regional team; ensures individual contributions to a shared regional strategy; and strengthens the vital bridge between JASS Mesoamerica and the wider organisation — translating regional realities into global conversations and global strategy back into regional action.

Reporting to the JASS Executive Director, the Regional Director will guide, support and work alongside the Meso team based in Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala, while participating in JASS’ senior leadership team responsible for the operational management and strategic direction setting of the organisation.

Core Strategic Focus (Required)

Mesoamerican Rootedness & Analysis: Must be from and located in Mesoamerica, with a history of political engagement and an informed analysis of regional social justice, feminist, and movement trends.

Political Strategy & Movement-Building: Demonstrated capacity to shape political strategy, lead movement-building work, and operate with feminist principles and an intersectional approach.

Bilingual Capability: Full professional fluency in both Spanish and English. Ability to represent regional realities within a global organization and participate fully in international strategic conversations.

2. People & Program Leadership (Required)

Organizational Management: Ability to coordinate people, programs, and specialist functions around a shared strategy. Provides leadership and oversight across functions without requiring deep technical expertise in each.

Team & Program Oversight: Experience leading, mentoring, and supporting teams, setting program priorities, and fostering collaborative, values-driven cultures.

Supreme Court decisions form part of the law of the land and play a critical role in shaping the rights, opportunities, and lived experiences of women and marginalized groups. Judicial pronouncements can either reinforce or challenge gender-based inequalities by influencing legal interpretations of equality, autonomy, power, and citizenship. Recognizing the judiciary's significant role in advancing gender justice, EU-GOJUST supported the conduct and publication of the “Legal Feminism in Philippine Gender Jurisprudence” Study in 2022, which examined Philippine gender jurisprudence through the lens of feminist legal theory. Using feminist legal methods and various schools of feminist jurisprudence, the study analyzed 153 Supreme Court decisions from 2006 to 2022 across key areas such as marriage and family, violence against women and children, rape, sexual harassment, LGBTQIA+ issues, labor, and gendered language and representations. The analysis sought to identify how feminist perspectives were reflected in judicial reasoning and to contribute to a deeper understanding of gender-responsive adjudication.

While the original study provides important insights into the ways feminist legal methods and jurisprudential perspectives are reflected in Supreme Court jurisprudence covering the said period, a follow-up study is necessary to determine whether and how gender-responsive adjudication continues to evolve in subsequent years. To support evidence-based and gender-responsive reforms in the Supreme Court, IDLO will engage a Legal Feminism in Jurisprudence Researcher to conduct a follow-up study on selected Philippine Supreme Court decisions issued between Q3 of 2022 and Q3 of 2026. Building on the findings of the 2022 Legal Feminism in Philippine Gender Jurisprudence Study, the researcher will analyze recent jurisprudence across selected thematic areas to identify emerging trends, assess progress and persistent gaps in the application of gender-sensitive legal reasoning, and determine whether feminist perspectives have become more deeply embedded in Supreme Court adjudication.

Background
Landesa is an international nonprofit dedicated to ending global poverty by securing land rights for rural communities around the globe.

Landesa leads the GESI capacity building component of the Women’s Land Rights Initiative (WLRI) in Liberia. The component seeks to comprehensively transfer knowledge and skills on gender equality and social inclusion to the institutions and actors who shape land governance, particularly Community Land Development and Management Committees (CLDMCs), Community Forest Management Bodies (CFMBs) and traditional leaders, so that they take account of the interests of women, youth and persons with disabilities in their community-facing interactions. By embedding GESI capacity in CLDMCs, CFMBs, traditional authorities and county offices, the WLRI helps the institutions responsible for customary land represent all members of their communities and deliver land administration services equitably. The GESI component consists of GESI training for County Land offices and Forestry Development Authority (FDA) county offices; GESI training for CLDMCs and CFMBs; GESI training for women, youth, and persons-with-disabilities (PWD) leaders; and grievance and dispute training and help desk setup. The WLRI began in June 2026 and ends in June 2027. It targets 24 customary communities from eight counties in Liberia.

Landesa is seeking applications from consultants to support Monitoring & Evaluation of the Landesa-led GESI component of the WLRI. Assessments of changes in duty-bearers’ knowledge due to the trainings will be conducted over the course of the WLRI. Qualitative research activities will be conducted in the last quarter of the initiative to assess changes in duty-bearers’ capacities to advance the rights and interests of women, youth, and persons with disabilities in community land and natural resource governance and to identify lessons learned and recommendations for similar future initiatives. The qualitative research activities will also include a small number of questions to be developed by the WLRI partners on a separate project component piloting Residential Area registration in the communities.

The Consultant will have primary responsibility for: quantitative analysis of data collected before and after trainings for the knowledge change assessments; design, conduct, and data-analysis of the qualitative research activities; write-up of a learning synthesis report; and facilitating learning & reflection discussions with the WLRI-Landesa staff over the course of the work.

Preferred qualifications

Candidates with minimum 5 years’ experience conducting Monitoring, Evaluation, & Learning of rural development projects in Liberia will be given high preference.

Strong skills in qualitative research methods (i.e., facilitation of key informant interviews and focus group discussions, analysis of rich qualitative data)

Proficiency in quantitative analysis, particularly as it concerns entering and analyzing data in Excel.

Familiarity with gendered livelihood, governance, and tenure concepts

Strong writing skills

Current knowledge of Liberia’s customary land governance context, including community land formalization processes, CLDMCs, CFMBs, traditional authorities, county land offices, and gender equality and social inclusion considerations affecting women, youth, and persons with disabilities.
