ABOUT OXFAM

 

OXFAM is a global movement of people who are fighting inequality to end poverty and injustice. OXFAM is an international confederation of 21 affiliates operating together in 85 countries. We have a vision of a just and sustainable world. A world where people and the planet are at the center of our economy. Where women and girls live free from violence and discrimination. Where the climate crisis is contained. And where governance systems are inclusive and allow for those in power to be held to account.

 

OXFAM SOCIAL PROTECTION

GENDER TRANSFORMATIVE SOCIAL PROTECTION refers to policies and programme designed to address and rectify gender inequalities and empower women and marginalized genders. Unlike traditional social protection measures that primarily aim to mitigate economic vulnerability, gender transformative approaches actively challenge, and aim at changing, the social norms, behaviors, and power dynamics that perpetuate gender-based disparities. These initiatives often include elements such as access to education and healthcare, legal reforms to protect women's rights, economic opportunities that enhance financial independence, and community-based interventions that promote gender equality. Scholarly articles indicate that by focusing on the root causes of gender inequities, gender transformative social protection not only provides immediate relief but also fosters long-term social change towards a more inclusive and equitable society.

Social scientists and economists confirm significant economic returns of implementing gender transformative social protection. The models indicate that the policy yields significant economic returns by fostering a more inclusive and productive workforce. When women and marginalized genders gain access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, they can contribute more effectively to the economy. Empowering women through financial independence and legal rights can lead to increased labor force participation and entrepreneurial activities, driving economic growth. Additionally, addressing gender disparities reduces the costs associated with health issues, violence, and social conflicts, which can otherwise burden the economy. And by promoting gender equality, societies benefit from a more diverse and innovative labor market, leading to enhanced productivity, higher incomes, and sustainable economic development.

Cambodia has recently initiated several social protection schemes which greatly benefit apparel industry employees. OXFAM and partners organisations have long been working with the Royal Government of Cambodia, through the National Social Protection Council (NSPC) and the National Social Security Fund (NSSF), to build and enhance inclusive social protection systems for all. Building on these, OXFAM has initiated and implemented several initiatives to help Cambodia getting closer to achieving Sustainable Development Goals such as no poverty, good health and well-being, gender equality, etc., decent work and economic growth. Those social protection initiatives include: 1) Inclusive National Social Protection Initiatives that Respond to the Needs of Apparel Industry Employees” (INSPIRE), a three-year project funded by the Laudes Foundation, and; 2) Improving Social Protection and Labour Rights for women workers in ASEAN’s Agri-Food Sector, a new 5-year DGD (Belgium Government) supported programme.

PURPOSE OF THIS CONSULTANCY SERVICE

OXFAM has long been working with and supporting partner organisations, including the new established Social Protection for All (SP4ALL), a coalition of 22 strong and dedicated NGOs and unions that work on social protection settings, in terms of financial resource and technical aspect to influence the policy outcomes and better represent their Constituents to policy dialogue concerning social protection.

And to ensure that all partner organizations and members of SP4ALL coalition are better aware and knowledgeable of gender transformative social protection, OXFAM is seeking a consultancy service to design and provide this capacity-building training. The training hopes to build and strengthen knowledge of SP4ALL members and our partner organisations on gender transformative social protection, so that they can consider integrating key elements and approaches into position paper, petitions, and policy dialogue advocating for gender transformative social protection in the Kingdom.
