Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) and Safeguarding are critical priorities in humanitarian and development contexts. The purpose of this consultancy is to strengthen national frameworks for PSEA and safeguarding by developing practical, context-sensitive guidance and tools. Specifically, the assignment aims to support the integration of PSEA and safeguarding principles into national reporting systems and hotlines, and to enhance survivor assistance mechanisms in line with the Inter-Agency Victim Assistance Protocol. Further, the consultancy will support mapping and analysis of current efforts to address PSEA with governments in the region. By addressing existing gaps and aligning with international standards, the consultancy will contribute to more ethical, effective, and survivor-centered responses across contexts in the East Asia and Pacific region. The assignment is not considered an elevated risk role.
In the East Asia and Pacific (EAP) region, emergencies are often characterized by rapid onset, short duration, and swift transitions back to development programming. This dynamic context requires adaptable and scalable PSEA systems that can be quickly deployed, integrated into existing structures, and sustained beyond the immediate crisis. Flexible models are essential to ensure that protection mechanisms are not only responsive during emergencies but also reinforce long-term safeguarding systems. By equipping countries with ready-to-activate frameworks and minimum preparedness actions, UNICEF can help ensure continuity of protection and accountability to affected populations, even in the most time-bound and resource-constrained scenarios.

This includes establishing minimum preparedness actions and providing remote capacity-building support to 2 countries. The consultancy aims to ensure that national systems are equipped to respond swiftly and effectively to SEA risks and incidents during emergencies. The assignment is not considered an elevated risk role.
