The UNICEF Sustainable WASH Innovation Hub (‘the Hub’) is accelerating the scaling of transformative water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) innovations for vulnerable children and their families, and strong collaboration is at the heart of this mission. The WASH Hub sources, pilots and scales transformational climate-resilient solutions that respond to key programmatic challenges that, if solved, will unlock faster progress for a water secure future for children and young people. This consultancy will strengthen the Hub’s role as a global catalyst, bringing together innovators, practitioners, researchers, and communities to solve the most pressing WASH challenges facing children.
The Hub acts as a global accelerator for climate-resilient solutions. To scale these solutions, the Hub requires flexible and agile contracting pathways that allow for co-creation within UNICEF Country offices. This consultancy is designed to map, review, assess and provide clear guidance on the specific contracting instruments available within the UN system, specifically focusing on UNICEF, UNDP, WFP and UNOPS frameworks for the innovation and co-creation contracting procedures, and to provide actionable feedback and recommendations that strengthen the WASH Innovation Hub’s ability to select and apply the most suitable contracting pathways that support innovation and co-creation.
