This remote international consultancy is designed to deliver high-quality content and strategic advice on climate-resilient initiatives, helping UNICEF strengthen its private sector engagement on climate action and establish itself as a leading convener in this space.
The consultant will contribute to shaping and advancing UNICEF’s global climate partnerships agenda by ensuring that adaptation and resilience-building approaches are well articulated, evidence-based, and effectively integrated into private sector climate strategies.
By providing thought leadership, technical inputs, and advocacy support, the consultancy will help position UNICEF as a key partner in climate adaptation for children, particularly within the frameworks of global climate finance, the UNFCCC process, and high-level events such as COP. The assignment will directly support the Climate Partnerships team in the Private Sector Fundraising and Partnerships (PSFP) Section in Geneva, in developing compelling narratives, tools, and mechanisms that attract and sustain private sector investments in climate-resilient social services, with a focus on ensuring safe and sustainable services for every child in a changing climate.
The Global Stocktake of the Paris Agreement, UNFCCC analyses, and recent World Bank/OECD studies converge on one conclusion: mobilizing private finance at scale is indispensable to achieving climate goals. Yet major bottlenecks persist, including policy and regulatory uncertainty, high perceived risks, lack of risk-mitigation instruments, limited bankable project pipelines, weak local financial sector capacity, and insufficient investment in adaptation and social services.
To bridge these gaps, UNICEF aims to develop a comprehensive proposal that brings together public, philanthropic, and private sector actors to co-create financing mechanisms capable of unlocking investment in climate adaptation, mitigation, and resilience, particularly in social sectors that directly affect children and communities.
UNICEF works towards the realization of every child’s right, everywhere.

UNICEF's Division of Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP) in Geneva is pivotal to advancing this mission, focusing on maximizing the potential of the private sector to achieve results for children.
The Innovative Financing for Children (IF4C) function is central to these efforts. It develops and implements innovative financing tools to mobilize resources for children's welfare globally. These initiatives address critical issues such as resource mobilization, catalytic capital, innovative financing, climate change, environmental sustainability, and disaster risk reduction, targeting the most vulnerable and marginalized children and adolescents. Linked to this, IF4C has identified an ongoing need for capacity strengthening and knowledge management expertise to ensure the operational effectiveness of its portfolio of initiatives and projects.
UNICEF State of Palestine is seeking for a National Individual Consultant to Support the Finalization and Endorsement of the Law on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in the State of Palestine. The duration of this assignment is (45 working days over 6 months period)
The job provides office management, budget and human resources support to the PPD Asia Pacific Pillar, one of the 3 PPD geographic pillars alongside Brussels and Washington DC.
The Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS) Programme is UNICEF’s flagship household survey, providing internationally comparable, statistically rigorous data on the situation of children and women. Managed globally by UNICEF’s Data Collection Unit in Data, Analytics, Planning and Monitoring Division (DAPM), MICS supports more than 100 countries with technical assistance, capacity building, and data quality assurance.
With the growing number of ongoing and planned surveys, and a new funding modality centered on country resources, effective program coordination is critical to ensure the timely implementation of survey activities, efficient use of funds, and consistent coordination across regional and country offices.
MICS is a national government-led activity, with UNICEF providing technical assistance and limited financial support. Given the current dramatic reduction in donor funding and constrained national fiscal space, the consultant will focus on assessing the broader financial sustainability of MICS, including funding from governments, donors, and other partners. The consultant will analyse how MICS is financed across different sources to support strategic planning and resource mobilization.
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.
In today's dynamic landscape of survey and census activities, digital data collection has become the established standard procedure. However, with a wide array of tools designed for various applications, including household surveys, face-to-face interactions, and telephone surveys, the decision-making process around tool selection has become a complex task. Currently, UNICEF's headquarters, regional and country offices independently make these selections without access to a comprehensive overview of the respective advantages and disadvantages.
Recognizing the critical importance of well-informed tool choices in this digital age, the primary objective of this consultancy is to conduct a thorough and detailed review of the digital data collection tools available today. These versatile tools are compatible with a variety of platforms and offer unique capabilities. The purpose is to perform a comprehensive assessment that will cover technical specifications for each tool, providing insight into their complexities, strengths, and areas for improvement, while also encompassing practical recommendations. These will include best practices concerning ease of use, associated costs, training resources, and technical support. The desired outcome of this consultancy is to offer clear guidance on which digital data collection tools are best suited for specific data collection activities. By pursuing this informed approach, UNICEF aims to not only prevent the potential selection of less suitable or inappropriate tools but also ensure the highest standards of efficiency, data security, and child protection in the realm of digital data collection.
UNICEF’s Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP) Division works to deliver income, influence, and brand recognition for UNICEF globally. Within the PFP Division, the Individual Giving (IG) team strategically guides and supports fundraising markets in implementing global, regional, and market-level strategies. Our 2022-25 Individual Giving strategy aims to drive significant transformation in our business model, emphasizing audience-centricity, digital acceleration, and a shift toward a marketing-oriented approach.
Over the next year, the IG Team has set ambitious income targets, focusing on digital channels to reach audiences worldwide through relevant, creative campaigns and offers. To achieve these goals, the IG unit within PFP, Geneva, is seeking a Digital Content Specialist to support fundraising offices, particularly in Latin America, with planning, developing, and measuring impactful digital campaigns, propositions, and fundraising products.
This role involves providing creative leadership in the digital space, developing audience-centric content packages with agencies, delivering bootcamps for capacity-building workshops and webinars, and offering direct support to fundraising offices.
In close collaboration with other members of the IG team, Regional Support Centre teams, and key internal stakeholders, and informed by clear audience and data insights, the Digital Content Specialist will identify and deliver key fundraising content opportunities by leading, supporting, and facilitating digital content capacity. The role includes providing strategic advice, creative guidance, and developing innovative fundraising propositions and assets.
The Division of Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP), based in Geneva, aims to achieve sustainable impact for children – income and influence at scale – by maximizing UNICEF's private fundraising, partnerships, and engagement activities, including work with National Committees, regional, and country offices, for the realization of children's rights. The Humanitarian Funding Unit within the Private Sector Fundraising and Partnerships (PSFP) section of PFP supports National Committees and Private Sector Fundraising (PSFR) countries and steers global efforts across the organization to maximize funding opportunities through and for humanitarian crises and sudden-onset disasters.
Over the last 5 years, on average 66% of private sector funding has gone to only 3 HAC appeals – many of them media-covered emergencies. Although we will continue to leverage media-driven crises, our universal mandate requires a more sustainable and equitable distribution of funding across emergencies, especially for Chronically Underfunded Emergencies (CUEs). Chronically Underfunded Emergencies are crises marked by sustained humanitarian needs that often span years or even decades. These emergencies typically occur in regions affected by chronic displacement, ongoing conflicts, or recurring natural disasters such as drought.
Closing the funding gap for chronically underfunded emergencies from the private sector demands bold action and seamless collaboration across UNICEF.
It is in this regard that UNICEF’s Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP) Division is launching the Global Emergency Alliance for Children, a pioneering platform to mobilize leading businesses for sustained, flexible support to children affected by protracted and sudden-onset crises. The Alliance aims to reduce the funding gap for crises by leveraging corporate resources, expertise, and influence to deliver measurable impact for children worldwide.
UNISON is UNICEF’s Salesforce-based partnership management CRM system.

Legacy data and fields must be cleaned up and rationalized and donor adoption enhanced through refined analytics.
This consultancy will support UNICEF’s global partnerships and fundraising community and the wider organization by leveraging UNISON (Salesforce) data to deliver actionable insights, optimize partner engagement strategies, set measurable KPIs, and enhance reporting capabilities.
