While existing learning frameworks and diagnostic assessment tools provide valuable guidance for assessing foundational learning, these were primarily developed for stable learning environments. Their application in emergency settings requires adaptation to account for interrupted schooling, psychosocial stress, multi-grade teaching arrangements, learning loss, student displacement, and challenges related to inclusive education.
Particular attention is required to ensure assessment approaches are appropriate for children with disabilities, children from diverse linguistic backgrounds, and those experiencing prolonged learning disruption.
Strengthening emergency responsive learning frameworks and diagnostic tools will support evidence-based planning, targeted learning support, and improved learning recovery efforts at national and subnational levels.
The MICS7 will be implemented using CAPI (Computer-Assisted Personal Interviewing) to reduce data collection time, facilitate real-time monitoring, improve data quality and reduce survey costs. Under the overall supervision of the Monitoring and Evaluation (CRM) Specialist, the National MICS consultant will support the preparation, implementation and completion of the MICS survey in Uzbekistan. The consultant will work closely with and advise the NSC, especially the Survey Coordinator and sampling and data processing experts, during survey planning, questionnaire design, sampling, training, fieldwork, data processing, data analysis, dissemination and archiving, ensuring that MICS protocols and recommendations are followed at all times. The consultant will communicate effectively between the UNICEF CO and NSC, participate in required meetings, and coordinate the work of other resource people hired by UNICEF to provide technical assistance. The Consultant will work in close collaboration with the Regional MICS Coordinators at UNICEF Regional Office and the MICS Team at UNICEF Headquarters, as well as expert consultants assigned to support the Uzbekistan MICS (collectively labelled "The UNICEF MICS Team").
The P4 Human Resources Manager has a key role in leading, coordinating and quality-assurance under the overall direction of the Chief of People and Culture. The incumbent supports coherent client allocation and workload management across HRBPs; provides technical guidance and escalation support on complex or sensitive cases; promotes consistent application of policy across client groups; and ensures that business partnering is integrated with the team's functional focal-point model. Functional leads retain technical ownership and quality assurance for designated areas such as talent acquisition, employee lifecycle and entitlements, learning and performance management, workforce analytics and post management, while HRBPs coordinate client needs and refer matters requiring specialist review or approval to the relevant focal point. Given the demands of the L3 emergency, the model is deliberately flexible. The incumbent is expected to facilitate cross-pillar support during recruitment surges, staffing gaps, R&R and other absences, and periods of heightened operational demand, ensuring continuity of P&C service delivery and appropriate Officer-in-Charge arrangements when required. The role also uses workforce data and analytics to identify emerging people risks, staffing requirements and service-delivery bottlenecks, and to support evidence-based decisions by senior management.
