UNICEF is looking for an International/National Consultant to support the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare to support drafting a new Law on Social and Child Protection in Montenegro, including continuous assistance to the Working Group of the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare.
Under the guidance of the supervisor, accountable for programme, planning, design, implementation and administration of specific projects within a major programme, in accordance with the Country Programme Recommendation and Country Programme Management Plan, focussed on achievement of UNICEF's Priorities.
The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programs, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias, or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic, and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education, and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.
The consultant shall interact with the Frontier Data and Tech Unit (FDTU) and the Program Group Immunization Team (PGI) to gather data and software requirements. The consultant shall also research and test potential methods for improving existent AI solutions and increase the precision of automatic data extraction from unstructured files.
