The Humanitarian Evaluation Effectiveness Portfolio (HEEP) within the Evaluation Office will be managing several L3 evaluations in 2026. These include evaluations of UNICEF’s L3 (Level 3) responses in State of Palestine (SoP) and Lebanon. Aligned with EO’s vision to deliver more cost-efficient evaluations and ensure rapid turn-around of evaluation deliverables and in light of the limited capacity within HEEP to complete all the activities included in its work plan, EO is currently seeking a Humanitarian Evaluation Consultant (Senior Level) to lead the second and third phases of the iterative evaluation of the UNICEF’s L3 response in SoP and to lead the second phase of the Lebanon evaluation. The consultant will also contribute to a third evaluation assignment currently being planned for 2026: the evaluation of UNICEF’s Staying and Delivering in volatile contexts. Under the supervision of the EO’s Senior Evaluation Specialist (Humanitarian), the consultant will provide technical support to the conduct of these three humanitarian evaluations and help strengthen the overall quality and utility of humanitarian evaluations across UNICEF.

For every child, the right to NUTRITION.
The Division of Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP), based in Geneva, aims to achieve sustainable impact for children – income and influence at scale – by maximizing UNICEF's private fundraising, partnerships, and engagement activities, including work with National Committees, regional, and country offices, for the realization of children's rights. The Humanitarian Funding Unit within the Private Sector Fundraising and Partnerships (PSFP) section of PFP supports National Committees and Private Sector Fundraising (PSFR) countries and steers global efforts across the organization to maximize funding opportunities through and for humanitarian crises and sudden-onset disasters.
Over the last 5 years, on average 66% of private sector funding has gone to only 3 HAC appeals – many of them media-covered emergencies. Although we will continue to leverage media-driven crises, our universal mandate requires a more sustainable and equitable distribution of funding across emergencies, especially for Chronically Underfunded Emergencies (CUEs). Chronically Underfunded Emergencies are crises marked by sustained humanitarian needs that often span years or even decades. These emergencies typically occur in regions affected by chronic displacement, ongoing conflicts, or recurring natural disasters such as drought.
Closing the funding gap for chronically underfunded emergencies from the private sector demands bold action and seamless collaboration across UNICEF.
It is in this regard that UNICEF’s Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP) Division is launching the Global Emergency Alliance for Children, a pioneering platform to mobilize leading businesses for sustained, flexible support to children affected by protracted and sudden-onset crises. The Alliance aims to reduce the funding gap for crises by leveraging corporate resources, expertise, and influence to deliver measurable impact for children worldwide.
The purpose of this assignment is to conduct a human-rights-based and equity-focused SitAn of the rights and well-being of children and young people in Jordan. The analysis will examine progress, challenges, and opportunities for realizing their rights and well-being, in line with the CRC, CEDAW, CRPD, and other international obligations through a participatory process, and using appropriate methodology, a human rights-based approach and an equity focus, develop a Situation Analysis on the Rights and Well-being of Children, Adolescents and Young people in Jordan.
The assignment aims to strengthen UNICEF’s partnerships with key stakeholders, including government institutions, national and local sports federations, private sector partners, and civil society organizations, to integrate child rights principles into sport-based initiatives and to leverage the unifying power of sport for social impact.
A particular focus will be placed on exploring and implementing innovative fundraising opportunities through sports, including large-scale sporting events, collaborations with sports organizations, and athlete-led campaigns that can attract both individual supporters and corporate donors.
The consultant will provide overall leadership and technical guidance in the design, planning, and implementation of sports-based projects, as well as in partnership coordination, resource mobilization, and reporting, contributing to the achievement of the expected results under the UNICEF Kazakhstan Country Programme 2026 - 2030.
The Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS) is an international household survey programme developed and supported by UNICEF. MICS is designed to collect data on key indicators that are used to assess the situation of children and women. Over the past three decades, MICS has continuously evolved to respond to changing data needs, expanding from 28 indicators in the first round in the mid-1990s to more than 250 indicators in the current seventh round, and has become a key source of data on child protection, early childhood education, and a major source of data on child health and nutrition. In addition to being a data collection tool to generate data for monitoring the progress towards national goals and global commitments for promoting the welfare of children, MICS provided valuable data for MDG and recently for SDG monitoring and reporting.
Under the overall supervision of the Household Survey Specialist, the Global Blood Testing Consultant has the responsibility for finalising the standard MICS questionnaire modules and associated protocols. In collaboration with the Global MICS Team in UNICEF Headquarters (HQ) and Regional Offices (ROs), and the respective UNICEF Country Offices (COs), as well the UNICEF Programme Group staff on Climate, Environment, Energy & Disaster and national partners, the Consultant will support the preparation, implementation, and completion of up to three MICS surveys (or similar UNICEF-supported survey) in relation to the blood testing component. When possible, the consultant will further provide input to UNICEF’s global efforts and support to data collection including blood sample, outside the MICS Programme.
Designs and protocols will follow those established for other components of the MICS Programme. The Consultant will work together with the Global MICS Team’s experts on sampling, data processing, and household survey support.
As part of the MICS programme, UNICEF continues to strengthen its MICS support mechanism at all levels, so that implementing partners in countries can receive the required level of technical assistance on a timely basis at critical survey stages and are in a better position to support the implementing partner. The 7th round of the MICS programme (MICS7) was launched in March 2023 and there are already 40 planned and ongoing MICS7 surveys and potentially 20-30 more surveys in the pipeline. There are also 7 surveys from the 6th round of the MICS programme that are still in data processing or report finalisation stages.
A very important element of MICS design and implementation is sampling, which is a very specialized field of work. Excellent sampling support is needed during the design, implementation, and reporting stages of all surveys.
As currently there is no sufficient funding to cover all planned activities, some deliverables are planned to be completed only if additional resources become available.
