MICS enables countries to produce statistically sound and internationally comparable estimates of a range of indicators on the situation of children, women and their families, in areas such as health, education, early childhood development, child protection, nutrition, water, sanitation, and hygiene. For many countries, MICS surveys are among the most important sources of data used for situation analyses, policy decisions, programme interventions, and for informing the public about the situation of children and women.
Currently, the MICS programme is in its 7th round and over 50 surveys are already formally listed as part of MICS7: Just over 20 have or are completing fieldwork, with the remaining still in the design phase. The number of MICS7 surveys is expected to increase by 10-20% in 2026 mainly due to closure of USAID’s Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) program and a few other countries currently in the process of finalizing the Memorandum of Understanding documents.
Current work on the questionnaire architecture and content of standard MICS7 questionnaires is nearly completed and 8 regional/global Survey Design and 5 Data Processing Workshops have been completed so far. Current and future MICS participating country/survey teams will need additional technical support on:
• ongoing and future MICS surveys including planning, sample design, questionnaire customisation, pre-test of questionnaires, customisation of tabulation plans, fieldworkers training, fieldwork monitoring, data analysis and report drafting, and dissemination, and
• planning and organisation of any potential local, regional, or global MICS Survey Design, Data Processing and Data Interpretation and Further Analysis workshops.

This remote international consultancy is designed to deliver high-quality content and strategic advice on climate-resilient initiatives, helping UNICEF strengthen its private sector engagement on climate action and establish itself as a leading convener in this space.
The consultant will contribute to shaping and advancing UNICEF’s global climate partnerships agenda by ensuring that adaptation and resilience-building approaches are well articulated, evidence-based, and effectively integrated into private sector climate strategies.
By providing thought leadership, technical inputs, and advocacy support, the consultancy will help position UNICEF as a key partner in climate adaptation for children, particularly within the frameworks of global climate finance, the UNFCCC process, and high-level events such as COP. The assignment will directly support the Climate Partnerships team in the Private Sector Fundraising and Partnerships (PSFP) Section in Geneva, in developing compelling narratives, tools, and mechanisms that attract and sustain private sector investments in climate-resilient social services, with a focus on ensuring safe and sustainable services for every child in a changing climate.
The Global Stocktake of the Paris Agreement, UNFCCC analyses, and recent World Bank/OECD studies converge on one conclusion: mobilizing private finance at scale is indispensable to achieving climate goals. Yet major bottlenecks persist, including policy and regulatory uncertainty, high perceived risks, lack of risk-mitigation instruments, limited bankable project pipelines, weak local financial sector capacity, and insufficient investment in adaptation and social services.
To bridge these gaps, UNICEF aims to develop a comprehensive proposal that brings together public, philanthropic, and private sector actors to co-create financing mechanisms capable of unlocking investment in climate adaptation, mitigation, and resilience, particularly in social sectors that directly affect children and communities.
UNICEF works towards the realization of every child’s right, everywhere. Grounded in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and guided by the Sustainable Development Goals, UNICEF fosters partnerships to strengthen systems and drive collective action to help children survive and thrive. UNICEF's Division of Private Fundraising and Partnerships (PFP) in Geneva is pivotal to advancing this mission, focusing on maximizing the potential of the private sector to achieve results for children.
The Innovative Financing for Children (IF4C) function is central to these efforts. It develops and implements innovative financing tools to mobilize resources for children's welfare globally. These initiatives address critical issues such as resource mobilization, catalytic capital, innovative financing, climate change, environmental sustainability, and disaster risk reduction, targeting the most vulnerable and marginalized children and adolescents. Linked to this, IF4C has identified an ongoing need for capacity strengthening and knowledge management expertise to ensure the operational effectiveness of its portfolio of initiatives and projects.
