Key information to encourage interest
The OSCE High Commissioner on National Minorities (HCNM) promotes conflict prevention and integration of diverse societies. HCNM was established to identify and seek early resolution of ethnic tensions that might endanger peace, stability or friendly relations between OSCE participating States. The mandate of the HCNM, as outlined in the OSCE framework, is to “assess at the earliest possible stage the role of the parties directly concerned, the nature of the tensions and recent developments therein and, where possible, the potential consequences for peace and stability” within the OSCE area. This mandate encapsulates a dual focus: firstly, to contain and de-escalate emerging tensions, and secondly, to provide early warning and, where applicable, early action if such tensions threaten to evolve into significant crises or conflicts.

This evaluation should provide a comprehensive review of HCNM’s work to better understand how to optimize the utilization of resources and capacities within current yet evolving contexts, needs and challenges, and thereby contribute to the enhancement of the HCNM’s effectiveness in delivering on its mandate.

The team leader will work with a specialist in conflict prevention and a number of field-level evaluators.
