Background Womankind Worldwide is an international women's rights organisation and funder, working with women's rights groups and feminist movements across the world to end gender inequality. We have influenced governments and other decision-makers to commit to ending violence against women, enable women to gain economic independence and ensure their voices are heard. As a feminist organisation, working to dismantle systems of oppression that discriminate against women, girls and people of all genders is at the heart of what we do. This is why decolonisation and antiracism inform how we work. As a UK-based organisation, we want to increase our positionality with the UK government, something partners have fed back is very important to them about what we offer. As part of this, we want to extend and complement the work we do in partnership with other UK-based NGOs to develop a brief of our key calls to action for the UK government. This will involve a review and refresh of our existing calls directed at the UK across our thematic areas, including partners in the review and co-creation process. The refreshed calls will be informed by partners' voices and priorities as well as the current political landscape-i.e. which levers are most likely to achieve success and cause Womankind to be invited into decision-making spaces and increase our influence and that of our partners. A year into the Labour government's first term, national policies and the international context have created a difficult policy environment for advocating on gender equality. The aid cut to 0.3% will have a devastating impact on gender equality funding and programmes. In addition, comments signalling a general de-prioritisation of gender in the FCDO's work have caused widespread concern. This takes place amidst similar cuts happening worldwide, notably the US Aid cut, which has already had a hugely detrimental impact on the work of feminist movements and women's rights organisations worldwide, including that of Womankind's Majority World partner organisations. Meanwhile, across Europe and internationally, the rise of right-wing populism combined with religious fundamentalism has contributed to a growing backlash to gender equality; while neoliberal, colonial systems harm people and the planet. Purpose of the Consultancy We want to contribute to influencing positive change on UK policy and commitments to gender equality. Furthermore, the UK has significant influence in certain settings, and we would like to see this channelled to influence action-for example, championing reform of International Financial Institutions, corporate accountability, and tax justice. While we recognise the difficulty of making cut-through with advocacy calls in this challenging policy environment, it is more important than ever that we advocate on aspects like ending femicide, tackling Tech Facilitated Gender Based Violence (TFGBV), and stopping corporate abuse. Womankind has traditionally conducted its advocacy in partnership with other UK NGOs, including through the GADN and CJC. While this is a vital and continuing strategy, the moment has arrived for us to refine and build on our own calls as an organisation and engage directly with the UK government on them as Womankind. The brief will be a means of using our power and positionality as a UK registered organisation to conduct relevant, timely and meaningful advocacy informed by and seeking to address UK positions on relevant issues and in the context of global developments affecting the feminist ecosystem. Those reading it should come away knowing: Who Womankind is (if they don't know already) Our key calls across our thematic areas of WER, WPL and VAWG What we want them to do-through easily understandable actions they can take.

Call/s with Policy and Advocacy team members to understand which are current and outdated and what gaps there might be Conduct online session/s with partners gathering feedback to inform which should feature in the brief and co-create emerging calls. Research of key influencing spaces and groups in Parliament to inform what will land best, optimum time to launch based on emerging realities. Deliverable 2 Preliminary findings report and outline Preliminary findings report recommending calls and content to include in brief (3-5 pages). Skeletal outline of brief (1-2 pages).

Weymouth and Kingston Maurward College is based across two campuses, with differing provision across academic, vocational and land-based courses, ranging from agriculture and animal care to construction and creative arts. The college contributes to the local community and economy by developing successful partnerships to ensure students acquire the skills needed. The two legacy colleges merged in August 2024, and the corporation board are supporting the continuing integration and further strategic progression following the merger. With a 2025 Ofsted rating of 'Good', and recognition that the contribution to regional skills needs is strong, the College is proud to have an impact across its geographical setting and beyond. With a wide range of facilities, including an animal park, restaurant, hair and beauty salon and children's nursery, the College places great emphasis on its career focussed and hands-on learning to support learners. In the short-to-medium term, new governors will join the corporation board in strategic planning relating to the newly merged college status, with exciting chances to offer new opportunities to students and widen their horizons in an area where there are high levels of deprivation. Fostering resilience and helping learners be ready for the world of work are key aspects of the College's purpose. There are also a variety of harmonisation and systems development projects underway that have been brought about through the merger. In the medium term, the college is finalising their estates strategy for a varied estate that includes a farm, a listed house and numerous buildings in need of capital spend, including investment committed through the merger process. In the longer term, the corporation board will have a focus on further strategic change to support the needs of learners and the local context. Board members are pro-active in their planning and desire to ensure best possible outcomes for learners and the College and incoming governors will join a highly communicative and engaged board. Weymouth and Kingston Maurward College has a turnover of circa. £27m, employs 683 staff and has over 3,100 learners in total . Individuals with a desire to have an impact in such a large learning environment are sought. Total number of learners: • 16-19: 2397 • Adult: 330 • Higher Education (HE): 133 • Apprenticeships: 190 The College's requirements The College Corporation board at Weymouth and Kingston Maurward College is seeking three new governors with the following skills and experience: FE curriculum and student data Farm, land-based and livestock management Governance and assurance Applicants with experience gained in the FE sector and a strong understanding of quality and standards across the FE setting are sought.

Any pre-existing education governance experience, including within the FE sector, is desirable. Similarly, experience within change management and HR functions will support the board further in their strategic aims. Time commitment and meeting schedule On average over a year governors commit about two days a month to effectively contribute to their role, including meeting, preparation, committee involvements and any on-site visits. At this stage of the development of the College, the board estimates that governors volunteer at least two days per month to their role. Every College is different, with changing expectations on time and commitment and we encourage prospective candidates to discuss their availability through the application process. Typically, 6 full governing body (FGB) corporation meetings take place each year and each committee meets at least three times a year.
