Its mission is to ensure the effective implementation and monitoring of the 2005 Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions and the 1980 Recommendation concerning the Status of the Artist. The Entity fosters international cooperation by providing assistance to governments around the world to design, monitor, and evaluate policies. It also provides support to the sound decision-making of the Convention’s governing bodies through knowledge sharing and data collection, analysis, and distribution.</span></p> <p style="margin:0.0cm;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"> </p> <p style="margin:0.0cm;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"> </p> <p style="margin:0.0cm;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif">The promotion of artistic freedom and the improvement of the status of the artists are central objectives of the 2005 Convention and the 1980 Recommendation. In this context, civil society organisations play a critical role in protecting artists’ rights, documenting violations of artistic freedom, providing direct support to cultural professionals, and contributing to the development and implementation of cultural policies. Recognizing the importance of civil society in advancing artistic freedom, the Swedish National Commission for UNESCO has provided a voluntary contribution to support four civil society-led projects. Through this contribution, UNESCO will support the implementation, monitoring and visibility of the four projects, while strengthening collaboration with civil society actors and enhancing awareness of artistic freedom issues.</span></p> <p style="margin:0.0cm;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"> </p> <p style="margin:12.0pt 0.0cm 8.0pt;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif">Gender equality is also a global priority of UNESCO and a strategic priority of the 2005 Convention. The Convention calls for policies and measures that address structural barriers and inequalities affecting women artists and cultural professionals and promote their full participation in cultural life. Over the past years, the Entity for the Diversity of Cultural Expressions has implemented a range of initiatives to strengthen evidence, capacities and policy responses on gender equality in the cultural and creative sectors. Building on these experiences, there is a need to consolidate knowledge, document lessons learned and develop practical tools to support the design and implementation of gender-responsive cultural policies and programmes.</span></p></div></div><div style="padding:10.0px 0.0px;border:1.0px solid transparent"><div style="font-size:16.0px;word-wrap:break-word"><H2 style="font-size:1.0em;margin:0.0px"><b>ASSIGNMENTS</b></H2> </div><div><p style="margin:0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt 21.3pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-21.3pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"><strong><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif">1.
