  • Local Consultant – Prevention of Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment in Ten (10) Local Authorities at Local Government Association of Zambia

    1.   Background
    The Partnerships for Municipal Innovation – Women in Local Leadership (PMI-WILL) is a $27,610,160 project with a financial contribution of $26 million from Global Affairs Canada (GAC) and $1,610,160 of in-kind contributions from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM). Implemented by FCM in collaboration with the Local Government Association of Zambia (LGAZ), PMI-WILL is designed to bring about enhanced enjoyment of rights for women and girls in Benin, Cambodia, Ghana, Sri Lanka, and Zambia. To bring about this ultimate outcome, the project will seek to achieve the following intermediate and immediate outcomes:
