UNICEF’s new Strategic Plan (2026-2029) and UNICEF’s WASH Strategy (2016-2030) both lay emphasis on the need for financial leveraging to accelerate delivery of results for children. WASH contributes to impact Areas 1 and 5 of the 2026-2029 Strategic plan focusing on lowering the child mortality rate and providing a foundation for healthy childhood development, as well as children being less vulnerable to climate and environmental risks. Aligned with our strategic goals and UNICEF's commitment to help governments accelerate SDG 6 achievement, our work will center on two key areas: developing WASH finance strategies to create frameworks to attract and deploy diverse resources for universal WASH access and designing and executing high-impact initiatives to boost financial leveraging and mainstream climate resilience in WASH interventions. UNICEF aims to establish a roster of pre-vetted and technically qualified individual consultants to support this expanding area of work in regions and countries.
Selected consultants will be eligible for a long-term agreement contract to provide on-demand technical support to UNICEF regional and country offices and to other UN agencies. LTAs are non-binding arrangements that do not constitute a commitment to acquire a consultant service.
