Oxfam has been working in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since the 1950s; a country office was established in Jerusalem in the 1980s. Oxfam mainly works in the most vulnerable communities in Gaza, East Jerusalem, and Area C.

Program Background

Masarouna is a five-year regional program that works in 6 counties across the MENA region. The program aims to mobilize the power of young people (YP) aged 18-35, for collective action to support their work for freedom of choice and respect for their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). The program works on strengthening youth engagement to influence decision makers and targeted communities to address inadequate legislation and harmful social norms that hinder them from claiming their SRHR. Additionally, Masarouna works on strengthening civil society organizations to lobby and advocate for SRHR.

The Overall Objective of the Consultancy

In Masarouna program, youth are not just a target group, but actors actively engaged in change. Thus, the program works to provide opportunities for meaningful engagement to youth including the provision of an internship program. The youth internship program will grant youth the opportunity to gain practical work experience, valuable networks and assume a leading role in SRHR organizations.

Within this context, Oxfam seeks to hire a consultant to work with the Masarouna Program team to develop a youth internship program manual.
