GDI is looking for a sociologist, anthropologist, social or political scientist or professional with a background in indigenous peoples’ development to support operations and the development of analytical and technical products pertaining to development identity and indigenous peoples of Panama.

In 2019, the IDB approved its first Diversity Action Plan (DAP), with the objective of improving the quality and quantity of operations supporting indigenous peoples, persons with disability, African descendants, and LGBTQ+ individuals. The main objectives of this consultancy are to provide operations support, technical assistance, and analytical work on projects involving indigenous peoples.

The Social Sector (SCL) is a multidisciplinary team convinced that investing in people is the way to improve lives and overcome the development challenges in Latin America and the Caribbean. Jointly with the countries in the region, the Social Sector formulates public policy solutions to reduce poverty and improve the delivery of education, work, social protection, and health services. Our objective is to advance a more productive region, with equal opportunities for men and women, and greater inclusion of the most vulnerable groups.

The Gender and Diversity Division´s mission is to promote gender equality and development with identity of indigenous peoples, and the inclusion of African descendants, persons with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ individuals in Latin America and the Caribbean through policy and strategic guidance, as well as technical assistance and training programs. We use a three-pronged approach: (i) support the integration of proactive actions to address gender and diversity issues in lending operations across the Bank’s sectors; (ii) develop new initiatives with innovative approaches for advancing gender equality and diversity; and (iii) generate data, analytical work and evidence on what works to support future policies and operations.
