The contract is for an implementing partner to implement Danish support to Rule of Law and Human Rights in Myanmar under the Denmark-Myanmar Country Programme 2016-2020.

The support for Rule of Law and Human Rights has as its objective to contribute to ‘increased application of and respect for international human rights standards and rule of law in Myanmar's justice system’.

The objective will be promoted by strengthening capacities in key justice sector actors with a focus on human rights education and research at universities, stronger lawyer and CSO networks to advance human rights through litigation and advocacy, and enhanced capacity of formal justice sector actors (the Office of the Union Supreme Court, the Union Attorney General's Office (UAGO)) to apply human rights law and judicial and procedural ethics in its decisions and functions.

The Implementing Partner Institution will be responsible for day to day management and implementation of the Development Engagement, including technical assistance to all counterpart institutions and partners, planning and financial management.
