The Health Specialist (MHPSS) role is situated in the Ukraine Country Office and reports directly to the Chief of Health and Nutrition. This position is essential for bridging health-focused MHPSS programming with broader organizational goals, ensuring a comprehensive approach to mental health and psychosocial support by integrating efforts across both internal sectors and external partnerships. The Health Specialist supports MHPSS programming primarily within the health sector while coordinating with other crucial UNICEF sectors such as education, child protection, Adolescent Development and Participation (ADAP), and Social and Behavior Change (SBC).

This effort is complemented by UNICEF’s collaboration with the “All-Ukraine Health Program”, which aims to establish a far-reaching support network impacting various societal dimensions.
