Impact, Learning and Knowledge Management Officer (ILKMO)

VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT

Deadline: 13th March, 2026

Background

The National Federation of the Disabled – Nepal (NFDN) is a national umbrella organization representing Organizations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) and advocating for the rights, dignity, and meaningful participation of persons with disabilities in governance and development processes across Nepal. NFDN partners with federal, provincial, and local governments, civil society, and development actors to strengthen disability-inclusive policies, accountability systems, and institutional capacities.

Despite Nepal's progressive legal framework and federal governance structure, women, persons with disabilities, and other marginalized groups continue to face systemic barriers to participation, access to services and meaningful participation in the local governance process like budgeting, participation and others. The Gender Equality, Disability and Social Inclusion (GEDSI) approach promotes inclusive governance by mainstreaming equity in planning, budgeting, decision-making, and service delivery to ensure that marginalized populations actively influence and benefit from development outcomes. The Subnational Governance Programme (SNGP) initiatives in partnership with The Asia Foundation emphasize institutionalizing GEDSI practices at subnational levels.

For mainstreaming the disability inclusion at the sub national governance, NFDN in partnership with The Asia Foundation is currently implementing the “Disability Inclusion in Sub National Governance Program” under SNGP in six municipalities namely Mithila, Bhimeshwor, Waling, Tansen, Birendranagar and Tikapur as well as in Koshi and Gandaki Province. 

To strengthen evidence-based programming, adaptive learning, and knowledge sharing across project interventions, NFDN seeks a highly experienced and qualified professional for the position of Impact, Learning and Knowledge Management Officer to lead impact documentation, outcome harvesting, and knowledge dissemination initiatives.

Position Purpose

The Impact, Learning and Knowledge Management Officer will be responsible for implementing comprehensive monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) frameworks to systematically document outcomes, capture lessons learned, and facilitate knowledge sharing on inclusive governance and disability rights within the context of Nepal's federalism. The position will ensure that programmatic evidence informs strategic decision-making, policy advocacy, and organizational learning.
