Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Assessment

Lead RED NOSES International's first group-wide Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Assessment, including:

• Design and implement a mixed-methods evaluation (surveys, interviews, focus groups) across 11 countries and multiple cultural contexts.
• Establish and facilitate a DEI Advisory Panel to ensure diverse internal perspectives inform the process.
• Produce a DEI Assessment Report and a practical DEI Roadmap (2027–2030) with prioritized actions, indicators, and governance recommendations.

This assessment will help RED NOSES embed equity and inclusion across its global network, ensuring that its healthcare clowning programs reach diverse communities in a respectful, safe, and empowering way, and that the organization itself models the values it promotes.

• At least 8 years' professional experience in evaluation or organizational assessment, with evidence of leading 2–3 comparable multi-country or multi-stakeholder evaluations.
• Demonstrated expertise in DEI, including intersectional frameworks, organizational culture change, and trauma-informed facilitation of sensitive conversations.
• Mixed-methods competence (qualitative and quantitative) and experience in arts/culture, international NGOs, healthcare, or humanitarian contexts.
• Team must include at least one member with direct professional or lived experience in Central or Eastern Europe.

Fixed budget of up to EUR 40,000 (all costs included). Payment schedule: 30% on contract signature, 30% on acceptance of draft inception report, 40% on acceptance of final deliverables. Opportunity to shape DEI strategy for a unique international arts-for-health organization.

RED NOSES International is a non-profit foundation using healthcare clowning to promote emotional wellbeing, social inclusion, and creative empowerment. It coordinates a network of 11 local organizations across Europe, Jordan, and Palestine, with an Emergency Smile program in crisis-affected regions globally.
