UNICEF’s child protection in humanitarian action (CPHA) programs aim to ensure every child is protected from violence, abuse, exploitation, and neglect. We partner with governments, international organizations, and civil society to actively prevent children from being harmed; to monitor grave violations committed against girls and boys and advocate for respect for international humanitarian law; and to develop programmes to support children who have experienced violence, exploitation, abuse and neglect. UNICEF’s child protection work promotes effective linkages between humanitarian and development programming and supports countries to strengthen their capacities and systems for mitigating risks, preparing for and responding to emergencies, and building resilience. UNICEF also leads the development of technical standards, guidance and advocacy efforts to support child protection actors in the field in delivering evidence-based, effective and high-quality programs to protect children.
The CPHA Team continually seeks to strengthen the evidence and data in all areas of Child Protection programming, and is committed to monitoring, evaluation, and results-based management. During the duration of the contract, the consultant will be responsible for a set of specific deliverables aiming at strengthening the CPHA programming related to planning, resource mobilization, monitoring and reporting, knowledge management, and evidence building
