National consultant to provide technical assistance for advancing adolescents’ rights to participation and civic engagement, 4.5 months, Home based, Travel related
|
Indonesia
|
|
| Child and adolescent participation are a fundamental right and an important priority under Indonesia’s national development agenda. The RPJMN 2025–2029 promotes and monitors youth participation through indicators related to the involvement of children in development planning processes. This is also aligned with the joint commitment of UNICEF and the Government of Indonesia under the new Country Programme to promote adolescent participation and civic engagement, including by strengthening platforms, systems, and accountability mechanisms that enable children and adolescents to express their views and have their voices considered in decision-making processes.
To support this agenda, the Government of Indonesia, through the Ministry of National Development Planning/Bappenas and the Ministry of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection (MoWECP), with support from UNICEF, developed a monitoring information system for child and adolescent participation (Suara Makna). Suara Makna is designed to document and track children’s and adolescents’ voices in development planning processes, particularly through Forum Anak and Musrenbang, and to monitor whether these inputs are followed up by relevant government actors. The system aims to strengthen meaningful child participation by ensuring that children’s voices are not only collected, but also recorded, considered, responded to, and used as evidence for more child-centred planning and governance. |

| Objectif de la mission:
La présente étude a pour objet de mesurer, décrire et analyser la monoparentalité au Maroc, sous ses formes visible et invisible, et d’évaluer les vulnérabilités économiques, résidentielles, éducatives et relationnelles auxquelles sont exposés les enfants vivant dans ces configurations familiales en tenant compte des besoins spécifiques selon les différentes étapes du développement de l'enfant, notamment la petite enfance, l'enfance et l'adolescence. Elle doit produire une lecture à la fois statistique et sociologique de la monoparentalité, en distinguant ce qui apparaît au niveau du ménage et ce qui n’est révélé qu’au niveau du noyau familial, cas de la monoparentalité invisible. Cette orientation est cohérente avec le cadre conceptuel de l’ENF 2025, qui analyse la structure familiale à partir des liens de parenté, des statuts matrimoniaux et des noyaux familiaux. |
