MICS enables countries to produce statistically sound and internationally comparable estimates of a range of indicators on the situation of children, women and their families, in areas such as health, education, early childhood development, child protection, nutrition, water, sanitation, and hygiene. For many countries, MICS surveys are among the most important sources of data used for situation analyses, policy decisions, programme interventions, and for informing the public about the situation of children and women.
Currently, the MICS programme is in its 7th round and over 50 surveys are already formally listed as part of MICS7: Just over 20 have or are completing fieldwork, with the remaining still in the design phase. The number of MICS7 surveys is expected to increase by 10-20% in 2026 mainly due to closure of USAID’s Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) program and a few other countries currently in the process of finalizing the Memorandum of Understanding documents.
Current work on the questionnaire architecture and content of standard MICS7 questionnaires is nearly completed and 8 regional/global Survey Design and 5 Data Processing Workshops have been completed so far. Current and future MICS participating country/survey teams will need additional technical support on:
• ongoing and future MICS surveys including planning, sample design, questionnaire customisation, pre-test of questionnaires, customisation of tabulation plans, fieldworkers training, fieldwork monitoring, data analysis and report drafting, and dissemination, and
• planning and organisation of any potential local, regional, or global MICS Survey Design, Data Processing and Data Interpretation and Further Analysis workshops.

The intersection of the global climate crisis and rising inequalities increasingly threatens children’s health, well-being, and futures, particularly in vulnerable settings. While adaptation is an urgent priority, financing continues to fall short of actual needs. The public sector has played a critical role in mobilizing resources for climate action; however, its full potential remains untapped in advancing climate action through the social sectors—education, health, nutrition, protection, water and sanitation, most vital for building resilience among children and their communities.
The Division of Private Fundraising Partnerships (PFP) and Public Partnerships Division (PPD) support the Sustainability and Climate Change Action Plan (SCAP) and the upcoming Strategic Plan 2026-2030 by enhancing strategic engagement with public sector partners and donors, focusing on sustaining and boosting climate income generation. The purpose of this consultancy assignment is to support the Chief of Climate Partnerships in PFP and the Deputy Director in PPD by coordinating with donor-facing desks in PPD and other divisions on climate engagement, fundraising, and influencing public sector donors for an enhanced public-private climate partnerships approach.
The UNICEF Innovative Finance Hub in Helsinki is seeking a Communications Intern to support both external and internal communications, with a particular focus on Child-Lens Investing (CLI).

The consultant will coordinate COP activities with senior and technical staff from multiple organizations involved in the funding, implementation and use of IR in education. This engagement will be through, online meetings, curating a live chat with community members, and face to face meetings as and where opportunities arise. Beyond the IR Community of Practice the selected candidate will also support the Education Unit in UNICEF Innocenti with research work related to the Implementation Research (IR) portfolio, working on topic and methodological briefs synthesizing the processes and outputs from the IR team.
UNICEF Generation Unlimited (GenU), in partnership with the African Union Commission’s Women, Gender and Youth Directorate (WGYD), is the hiring entity for this consultancy. GenU and the AU have joined forces to launch EmPowerHer Africa—a flagship programme aiming to empower 50 million adolescent girls and young women by 2030. The programme seeks to expand access to market-relevant skills, entrepreneurship pathways, financial inclusion mechanisms, and supportive policy environments across Africa. The consultancy will be physically and administratively based within the AU WGYD, emphasizing the Youth Directorate
PURPOSE OF CONSULTANCY:
To provide technical and operational support to monitoring, evaluation, research and learning (MERL) across the WYFEI Initiative through AU/UNICEF EmPowerHer Africa. This will ensure results-based implementation, rigorous reporting, enhanced accountability, capacity building, and strategic learning for scale-up.
Aligned with UNICEF’s strategic positioning of ECD in the next Strategic Plan, the objective of this consultancy is to support the ECD Team in: (i) ensuring timely data quality assurance through internal monitoring mechanisms for UNICEF-supported and implemented ECD programmes globally in 2025; (ii) producing analytical quantitative and qualitative updates and visuals for annual and donor reporting; (iii) developing a consolidated summary report of global ECD results for the current Strategic Plan (SP) period; (iv) providing technical inputs to UNICEF progress and global reports (e.g., Global Annual Results Report GARR); and (v) extracting illustrative examples and case studies from country reports to supplement ECD 2025 result statements in reports with field stories.
As part of the MICS programme, UNICEF continues to strengthen its MICS support mechanism at all levels, so that implementing partners in countries can receive the required level of technical assistance on a timely basis at critical survey stages and are in a better position to support the implementing partner. The 7th round of the MICS programme (MICS7) was launched in March 2023 and there are already 40 planned and ongoing MICS7 surveys and potentially 20-30 more surveys in the pipeline. There are also 7 surveys from the 6th round of the MICS programme that are still in data processing or report finalisation stages.
A very important element of MICS design and implementation is sampling, which is a very specialized field of work. Excellent sampling support is needed during the design, implementation, and reporting stages of all surveys.
As currently there is no sufficient funding to cover all planned activities, some deliverables are planned to be completed only if additional resources become available.
UNICEF’s Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS)—implemented in over 120 countries and aligned with 22 of 23 SDG indicators previously monitored through DHS—represent one of the world’s leading sources of internationally comparable data on children and women. In this evolving context, there is a growing expectation that MICS could play an expanded role in addressing the data gaps left by DHS. However, this potential requires careful assessment of both external opportunities and internal readiness, including questions of institutional capacity, financial sustainability, and strategic prioritization.
The purpose of this consultancy is therefore to assess and articulate the extent to which MICS can and should respond to the changing global survey landscape, and under what conditions—institutional, technical, and financial—such an expanded role would be viable and sustainable. The work will examine how MICS could contribute to maintaining continuity in global demographic and health statistics while reinforcing existing national data infrastructures and avoiding the creation of parallel systems.
This assignment will produce an evidence-based analysis and a strategic framework to guide UNICEF’s decisions on the internal investments, partnerships, and operational adjustments required to strengthen MICS’s position within the global data ecosystem. It will be conducted in alignment with the ISWGHS Task Force on Sustainable Demographic and Health Statistics and UNICEF’s Global Data Strategy, ensuring that all recommendations are grounded in principles of national ownership, complementarity, and sustainability.
