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.
The purpose of this consultancy is to provide AI capacity development to UNICEF Nepal staff through tailored coaching sessions and practical demonstrations that enable staff to confidently integrate AI into their daily work.
Child marriage and early union remain significant challenges in Viet Nam, particularly among ethnic minority girls, rural communities and poorer households. The prevalence increased from 10.6% in 2014 to 14.6% in 2021, affecting millions of girls. Child marriage is driven by a combination of poverty, school dropout, limited access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information and services, and harmful gender and social norms. At the same time, it further exacerbates gender inequality, increases the risk of adolescent pregnancy, limits educational and economic opportunities, and contributes to the intergenerational transmission of poverty. Although Viet Nam has laws prohibiting underage marriage, enforcement is inconsistent and harmful social norms continue to sustain the practice.
UNICEF is engaging a national M&E consultant to support the development of a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation framework that will guide the monitoring, evaluation and documentation of the intervention’s implementation process, results and emerging results, including through baseline and endline assessments.
