We are the only global development organization focused exclusively on using play to transform the lives of children and youth impacted by poverty, war, disease and inequality.
Established in 2000, Right To Play is headquartered in Toronto, Canada and has operations in 15 countries across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.

Designed as a gender-transformative, human-rights progressive sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) program, SHARE seeks to increase the enjoyment of health-related human rights by adolescent girls and young women in Ghana, Mozambique and Uganda.
The GE Specialist will be responsible for the integration of gender equality within the SHARE project across all three countries. The GE Specialist will also provide technical guidance on gender-transformative program design and implementation, as well as strengthen the ability of country teams in this regard. She/he will provide technical support to design effective gender program knowledge management initiatives, ensure adequate collection, management and sharing of gender equality information/knowledge generated to orient/affect decision making in program management.
The GE Specialist will report directly to the RTP Uganda Country Director and will have a dotted reporting line with the RTP Global GE Specialist.
