The Play and Heal project is targeting children with mental health and psychosocial support needs following the 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye and Northwest Syria and the protracted humanitarian crisis and recent conflict escalation in Lebanon. The project supports the most vulnerable children, including refugee children, by integrating play based facilitated activities that target mental health outcomes in UNICEF's emergency response and Early Childhood Development, Education, and Child Protection Programmes, with the aim of providing children at risk of poor mental health with emotionally safe and healing experiences.
LEGO’s Play and Learn has been rolled out already in 2024 in the project’s target areas in Northwest Syria, earthquake affected areas of Türkiye, and southern Lebanon, in preparation for the training later in the year with the new Play and Heal model.

The Education Strategy (2019-30) ‘Every Child Learns’ identifies innovation as one of six programmatic approaches that has the potential to disrupt the conventional pace of expansion of education inputs and enable the improvement of learning. The Learning Passport (LP) is the flagship Digital Learning Programme of UNICEF, developed as a partnership between UNICEF and Microsoft. The Learning Passport delivers digital learning experiences to children around the world, in both connected and unconnected environments with 6m+ learners across 35+ countries, each with specific content needs and support.
The scale of the LP has created a surge in demand for technical assistance on programme monitoring and data analysis. This demand comes from Learning Passport implementing Country Offices (COs), Regional Offices (ROs), and HQ business units. The increased organizational focus on digital learning, specifically through the varying implementations of the Learning Passport, requires sustained technical capacity within the global team to meet the consistent and growing demands from implementing parties and the global Learning Passport user base. The global LP team wants to systemize evidence generation systems for the LP to understand what works, and under which conditions, as a priority activity that would accelerate the journey from the what to the how to improve learning outcomes.
UNICEF Moldova is launching the Internship call for its Social Policy Unit. This internship position seeks to target youth and to offer opportunities to benefit from a professional experience within a UN agency.
The overall purpose of this assignment is to support Tajikistan in developing a structured, efficient, and environmentally sustainable system for the decommissioning and disposal of outdated Cold Chain Equipment (CCE). As the country transitions to modern and energy-efficient refrigeration technologies, it is essential to ensure that obsolete equipment is safely phased out without disrupting immunization services. This assignment will focus on establishing clear procedures for handling non-functional CCE, managing refrigerants responsibly, and ensuring compliance with international environmental protocols, such as WHO PQS guidelines and the Kigali Amendment.
