UNICEF Afghanistan's Polio Section requires time-limited, specialized Information Management (IM) expertise to deliver a set of defined technical outputs during a critical six-month program phase (October 2026 – March 2027). This consultancy is temporary in nature, tied to specific deliverables, and required to support the piloting and national scale-up of the polio program 'reset' strategy, which introduces new data systems, monitoring frameworks, and field-level digitization processes that are beyond the current capacity and expertise of the existing Polio Section team.
The consultant will produce defined outputs across three areas: (1) integration of SBC, VCCM, and polio extender monitoring data into the Afghanistan Polio Management Information System (APMIS) to enable real-time analysis under the national 'pull' strategy; (2) structured IM technical support to the M&E team and field offices during the reset pilot phase in the South and Southeast regions; and (3) design and piloting of an AI-assisted digitization workflow for paper-based Registration Books in the East Region, including a proof of concept, field pilot, scale-up concept note, and trend analysis.

UNICEF is committed in supporting the institutionalization of the early childhood care and development (ECCD) system in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). Likewise, UNICEF is a member of the Bangsamoro ECCD Technical Working Group (TWG) of the Regional Sub-Committee for the Welfare of Children (RSCWC) and is working closely with the government in advancing the ECCD agenda in the region.
Specifically, the regional government deemed it necessary to develop and implement a curriculum that is relevant and contextualized for all children in early childhood in the whole region. Currently, early learning facilities in BARMM are utilizing different curricula depending on its availability and accessibility (e.g. downloaded from websites). In addition, very limited number of Child Development Workers (CDWs) were trained on utilizing the National Early Learning Curriculum (NELC) while the Tahderiyyah Curriculum was only utilized in the Madrasah. With this curriculum, the regional government can issue a memorandum directing all LGUs to follow a standard curriculum, monitor its implementation and document the progress of children. Thus, this consultancy will help the region in developing their own Bangsamoro Early Learning Curriculum that is also anchored in the revised Philippine Early Learning Development Standards (PELDS).
However, before the development process of early learning curriculum will be realized, there is a need to first conduct a comprehensive review process of the existing curricula in the region to assess how they are being implemented, identify what works and the bottlenecks, and provide strategic recommendations on how BARMM can proceed with developing its own early learning curriculum moving forward.
