Purpose of the Consultancy The purpose of this consultancy is to design and develop practical, user-friendly JEDIS Mainstreaming Toolkits that enable staff, volunteers, and activists to integrate Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Safety (JEDIS) into their daily work. Working closely with the JEDIS Team and relevant stakeholders, the consultant will lead a participatory development process, conduct consultations, develop practical guidance and implementation resources, and produce a suite of toolkits that are adaptable across Greenpeace entities and aligned with Greenpeace MENA s strategic priorities. The consultancy will develop three complementary JEDIS Mainstreaming Toolkits tailored to key organizational functions:
- People & Culture (HR) Toolkit The People & Culture Toolkit will support People & Culture teams in embedding JEDIS throughout the employee lifecycle. It will provide practical guidance, tools, and resources to strengthen equitable recruitment, onboarding, learning and development, performance management, accessibility, employee wellbeing, and inclusive workplace culture.
- Engagement Toolkit The Engagement Toolkit will support communications, digital engagement, and campaign teams in integrating JEDIS into public-facing communications and engagement. It will provide practical guidance to promote inclusive, accessible, ethical, and community-centered communications, campaigns, online engagement, and representation.
- Volunteers and Activists Toolkit The Volunteers and Activists Toolkit will support volunteer coordinators, organizers, activists, and volunteers in fostering welcoming, inclusive, accessible, and psychologically safe participation. It will provide practical resources to strengthen volunteer engagement, belonging, leadership development, safeguarding, and accountability.
Across all three toolkits, the consultant will develop practical implementation resources, including templates, checklists, decision-making frameworks, reflection tools, facilitation resources, and minimum standards that can be adapted to different Greenpeace entities and local contexts.
