ICTD is presently in search of an Information Protection & Compliance Consultant. This resource will operate within the purview of the Information Governance Manager within the Information Security Section of the ICT Division. The consultant will work closely with internal teams to design, configure, test, and deploy Microsoft Purview services while also validating how these services can be operationalized for long term sustainability. This will include assisting in the development of scalable governance models, evaluating signals generated by the platform, and refining our approach through direct engagement with business stakeholders.
The STRYIDE initiative is an ambitious, first-of-its-kind model that blends public and private financing to deliver quality ECD services while addressing youth unemployment. Its success depends on seamless programme design, coordination, and execution, in line with the evolving priorities of the Government of Uganda and UNICEF’s broader early childhood and youth programming.
To date, the UNICEF team has initiated the pilot phase of the STRYIDE programme by developing a training manual for ECD entrepreneurs and working through the Netherlands-funded PROSPECTS programme to identify potential youth entrepreneurs. The upcoming steps in the pilot phase will focus on testing the training content and providing microgrants to selected entrepreneurs to help them establish or expand their ECD enterprises. The full rollout of this pilot phase is planned over the course of the new country programme. As the initiative transitions into pilot implementation, there is an urgent need for dedicated technical support to ensure timely execution, adaptive planning, and effective coordination across multiple stakeholders—including government ministries, financial institutions, implementing partners, and young entrepreneurs.
In addition to STRYIDE, the ECD team is overseeing several other high-priority projects focused on caregiver support, private sector engagement, and expansion of ECD services in refugee and host communities. The complexity and scale of this portfolio demand additional capacity to support grant and programme management, partner engagement, progress monitoring, and knowledge sharing.
The Education and Gender Officer, under the guidance of the Chief of Education, is responsible for providing technical support to ensure gender mainstreaming across all components of the ECW programme and implementing gender-targeted activities. This role focuses on enhancing gender and girls' education outcomes in alignment with the GLO result frameworks.
The Government of the United Republic of Tanzania, through the Tanzania Food and Nutrition Centre (TFNC) in collaboration with development partners, is finalizing the Micronutrient Survey (MNS) which is a component of the Tanzania Demographic and Health Survey/ Malaria Indicator Survey (TDHS/MIS) 2022 . The MNS includes an expanded set of micronutrient biomarkers assessments among women of reproductive age (WRA) and children under the age of five years – including Iron, vitamin A, vitamin D, folate, vitamin B12, and inflammatory markers; and at the population level, an assessment of the coverage of fortified foods (salt, edible oil, wheat, and maize flour). The MNS will provide critical data to inform national strategies, policy decisions, and programmatic interventions to prevent and reduce micronutrient deficiencies
