The JRS Human Rights Advisor will provide technical support to USAID Missions on issues related to human rights (50% functions) and in advancing and/or implementing and monitoring human rights related policies (50% of the incumbent�s functions).� Regarding support to Missions, the JRS Human Rights Advisor will provide technical assistance to Missions either remotely from Washington or via short-term temporary duty (TDY) travel. The Advisor will provide technical support directly via consultation (e.g. responding to Mission requests for assistance with assessments, designs, identification of best practices, training, etc.) or indirectly through the development and maintenance of field support resources such as the supplemental funds that Missions can access or pre-competed program mechanisms that help Missions establish respond to urgent needs. In addition, the JRS Human Rights Advisor will serve as an expert technical advisor in the development and interpretation of human rights-related policy and guidance.� The Human Rights Advisor will also be expected to prepare briefings and represent JRS in intra- and interagency fora, including before the National Security Council (NSC) on human rights issues.� Under the direction of the JRS team lead, supervised by the JRS Deputy (or his/her designee), and in partnership with other JRS team members, the Advisor will work closely with a broad range of internal and external stakeholders, including other DRG colleagues and divisions, USAID staff in other bureaus and operating units, interagency colleagues, and implementing partners. The position is based in Washington, D.C. and regular (non-remote) telework might be possible. Due to the nature of the policy-related functions of this position, the incumbent will need to attend several inter-agency meetings in-person in Washington, D.C. The PSC should expect to spend up to 25% of her/his time on TDY, including restricted environments. The duration of the contract period is anticipated to be two (2) year base periods with three optional one (1) year periods for a maximum duration of five (5) years. The solicitation will be published on System for Award Management (SAM).� Interested parties are advised to periodically monitor this website for updates on this potential opportunity. Except for the above information, no additional information regarding this planned solicitation is available at this time. All necessary information will be supplied at the time the solicitation is issued. USAID will not respond to any questions or requests for information until the solicitation is issued. USAID will not accept applications prior to issuance of the solicitation. Issuance of the pre-solicitation notice and any subsequent RFP does not constitute an award commitment on the part of USAID, nor does it commit USAID to pay for any costs incurred in the preparation and submission of any application.
