Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR) Health

The International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) is the world’s largest civil society organisation advancing sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). With a presence in over 146 countries through our Federation of 120 Member Associations and 38 Collaborative Partners, we deliver healthcare and champion rights where they are needed most. Our work spans comprehensive sexuality education, access to contraception and safe abortion, maternal care and humanitarian response - ensuring that care reaches all, regardless of race, gender, income, or geography. Guided by Strategy 2028, we are reimagining our future to be more locally owned, globally connected and unapologetically bold in advancing SRHR, gender justice and human rights.

We are seeking a visionary leader to serve as our next Director, Solidarity for Change and Voice. This is an opportunity to lead a global movement for SRHR justice - driving bold advocacy, amplifying the voices of those most affected, and standing firm in the face of growing opposition. The Director will spearhead partnerships with social movements, build strategic alliances, and shape the global discourse on SRHR. They will ensure that IPPF remains a fearless and authoritative voice for gender justice, LGBTQI+ rights, and access to safe abortion, while strengthening our Federation’s ability to counter disinformation and resist the rollback of fundamental freedoms.

Reporting to the Global Director of External Relations, the Director will set the conditions for IPPF to stand up and speak out. They will harness political intelligence, leverage storytelling and narratives, and work in deep solidarity with our Member Associations, activists, and allies to drive impact at every level - from grassroots mobilisation to international policymaking. They will also play a critical role in supporting human rights defenders, protecting activists from opposition attacks, and ensuring that IPPF continues to be a trusted and effective advocate for the people and communities we serve.

The ideal candidate will be a bold and strategic leader with deep experience in social justice movements, international advocacy, and global policymaking. They will have a track record of driving change in highly complex and contested spaces, building coalitions that shift power, and leading teams to deliver impact at scale. A skilled communicator and strategist, they will know how to shape narratives, challenge harmful discourse, and influence decision-makers at the highest levels. They will also bring extensive experience working with civil society, donors, governments, and multilateral institutions, along with a keen ability to navigate the political landscape surrounding SRHR. Above all, they will be relentlessly committed to human rights, fearless in the face of opposition, and unwavering in their pursuit of justice and equality for all.

About the Foundation
The Summit Foundation is a private family foundation founded in 1991 and located in Washington, DC.

Position Summary

The PA is an integral member of Summit’s small and collegial staff. In addition to working with and reporting to the EWG Program Director, the PA will coordinate closely with Summit’s grants management and administrative staff and the other two programs’ staff.

Gender-based violence (GBV)

Background
The Global Survivors Fund (GSF) was launched in October 2019 by Dr Denis Mukwege and Nadia Murad, 2018 Nobel Peace Prize laureates. Its mission is to enhance access to reparations for survivors of conflict-related sexual violence around the globe, thus responding to a gap long identified by survivors. GSF acts to provide interim reparative measures in situations where states or other parties are unable or unwilling to meet their responsibilities. GSF advocates for duty bearers as well as the international community to develop reparations programmes. It also guides states and civil society by providing expertise and technical support for designing reparations programmes. GSF’s survivor-centric approach is the cornerstone of its work.

Call for Expressions of Interest for an Expert on Feminist Principles in the planning, monitoring, accountability and learning (PMEAL) of projects and programs

Introduction
About medica mondiale e.V.

medica mondiale is a feminist women’s rights organisation. For over 30 years, we have been campaigning against conflict-related sexualised violence and against power relations that oppress women. Together with local partner organisations in Northern Iraq/Kurdistan, Afghanistan, West Africa, the African Great Lakes Region as well as in South-eastern Europe, we support survivors of sexualised violence, oppose discriminatory power relations, and empower women’s rights activists.

Through programmes and in partnership with local women’s rights organisations, medica mondiale e.V. follows a multi-level approach to address the various factors contributing to violence against women and girls: On the individual level, medica mondiale e.V. provides access to holistic services (psychosocial, health, legal, economic) for survivors of (sexualised) gender-based violence (SGBV). On the level of women’s and girls’ social environment, medica mondiale e.V. supports communities to recognise and protect women’s and girls’ rights and to support survivors of SGBV. On the institutional level, medica mondiale e.V. collaborates with diverse institutions along the referral pathway, whereby a particular focus lies on health institutions, to contextualize and adopt the stress- and trauma-sensitive approach (STA) towards survivors and to establish cross-institutional referral and support systems. On the political level, medica mondiale e.V. advocates for laws, policies and resolutions that address SGBV and promote women’s political participation. On the societal level, medica mondiale e.V. campaigns against sexism and gender stereotypes, raises awareness on (S)GBV and the long-term impacts of trauma within societies. Stress- and trauma-sensitivity are fundamental principles of our work, which is spelled out in media mondiale’s specifically developed stress- and trauma-sensitive approach (STA1). Our international programmes department is divided into four regional teams, which include experts from different medica mondiale departments (finance, international programmes (IP), trauma work, evaluation and quality (E&Q)). The four regional teams are 1) Afghanistan and Kurdish Autonomous Region of Iraq, 2) West Africa, 3) African Great Lakes Region, 4) Southeastern Europe.

Our primary aim is to transform patriarchal norms and structures and bring an end to sexualised wartime violence and other forms of sexualised gender-based violence. At the local, national and international levels we join forces with other feminist activists, women human rights defenders (WHRDs) and feminist women rights organizations to campaign for the rights, protection and participation of women in establishing gender justice and removing power gaps.
