To support the implementation of current and future WASH infrastructure construction interventions, UNICEF Indonesia seeks to establish a roster of qualified WASH Infrastructure Construction Engineers who may be engaged as individual consultants on a short-term or long-term basis to provide specialized technical support for planning, design, implementation, supervision, quality assurance, and contract management of WASH infrastructure projects, as and when required.
This Generic Vacancy Announcement (GVA) is issued to identify and assess qualified professionals for potential inclusion in UNICEF's Talent Group for WASH. The purpose of this GVA is to build a pool of pre-assessed, high-caliber candidates who can be considered for future positions aligned with UNICEF's strategic priorities and operational needs. While placement in the Talent Group does not guarantee selection for a specific post, it serves as a highly valuable and primary resource for swiftly filling future vacancies.
The incumbent will ead UNICEF’s urban WASH portfolio, providing strategic, technical and managerial leadership to deliver high-impact water and sanitation programmes while engaging with government, development partners and international financing institutions.
UNICEF India is seeking a national individual consultancy to develop frameworks, action plans, manuals, SOPs, and capacity-building plans for climate-resilient and safely managed sanitation services, with a focus on strengthening climate-resilient WASH services, sanitation value chains, functionality, and operation and maintenance, for a period of 14.5 months.
The Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) programme is a core component of UNICEF Burkina Faso’s Country Programme, implemented in a context marked by insecurity, climate shocks and large‑scale internal displacement. The programme focuses on delivering life‑saving and resilient WASH services while strengthening national and sub‑national systems to ensure equitable, sustainable access for the most vulnerable women and children, particularly in fragile and hard‑to‑reach areas.
The purpose of the assignment is to provide technical leadership, coordination and quality assurance for the nationally owned process of revising and strengthening the project entitled “Climate-resilient WASH services and water security to support the resilience of community, health and education systems in Chad”, together with all mandatory annexes and supporting documentation, to ensure alignment with UNICEF pipeline selection requirements and the GCF investment criteria.
The Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene in Schools (WinS) Program is a critical component of quality education, child health, dignity, and protection. Adequate WASH services in schools contribute to improved learner attendance, reduced incidence of water- and sanitation-related diseases, safer and more inclusive learning environments, and better education outcomes. For adolescent girls WASH facilities are particularly important to ensure privacy, dignity, menstrual health and hygiene, and continued participation in school activities.
The Ministry of Basic, Higher and Technical Education (MBHTE) localized the program.
MBHTE oversees approximately 2,612 public elementary and secondary schools mandated to implement WinS and report through the WinS Online Monitoring System (OMS), which generates ratings through the Three-Star Rating System. However, schools and divisions continue to experience difficulties in monitoring, reporting, and data uploading due to limited internet connectivity, technical login issues, incomplete submissions, and varying interpretations of indicators.
Challenges also persist in school WASH infrastructure, supplies, water safety, waste management, operation and maintenance, and access to technical assistance, particularly in remote, island, conflict-affected, and climate vulnerable areas. Since WinS data is largely self-reported, field validation is needed to verify the actual functionality, adequacy, accessibility, safety, and sustainability of school WASH services. Given these gaps, UNICEF and MBHTE require dedicated technical support to conduct a comprehensive assessment and validation of WinS implementation across BARMM. The assignment will generate credible and usable evidence to guide planning, policy advocacy, resource mobilization, technical assistance, and integration of WinS priorities into School Improvement Plans (SIP), Division Education Development Plans (DEDP), and Bangsamoro Education Reform and Development Plan (BERDP)

The interventions will be implemented in Harare, Bulawayo, and in Matabeleland North Province. (Gokwe District).
UNICEF supported the state governments to develop Sustainability Compacts and Action plans in response to the 2021 Sector-wide Sustainability Check (SWSC) findings. UNICEF has also supported the update of the WASH Information Management System (WASHIMS) to integrate climate resilience, sustainability, and gender equality indicators, and improved government capacity to report on WASH routinely on the WASHIMS. For the HOSI, UNICEF supported the government to engage in regional and global meetings hosted by the African Minister’s Council on Water and the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) partnership. In 2026, the Government of Nigeria was also supported to engage in discussions WASH financing and meaningful youth engagement at the IRC WASH Systems Leadership Symposium in Kigali, and to advance the Water Compact in collaboration with the Nigeria Water Development Partner’s Group.
Building on these foundations, a systems strengthening consultant is required to support the federal and state governments to advance on the knowledge management and evidence generation, WASH service sustainability and the HOSI.

The Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has declared an outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease affecting Ituri and other affected or at-risk provinces. National authorities, with the support of humanitarian partners, have activated emergency coordination and response mechanisms to contain transmission and protect affected communities.
The outbreak is unfolding in a complex humanitarian environment marked by insecurity, population displacement, high mobility, constrained access to essential services and weak water, sanitation, hygiene and infection prevention and control systems. These conditions heighten the risk of transmission in health facilities and communities and require rapid, well-coordinated and technically rigorous WASH/IPC action.
The geographic expansion of the outbreak, the operational complexity of the response and the need to align interventions across national, provincial and health-zone levels require senior leadership. An experienced profile is therefore required to provide the strategic expertise, technical authority and convening capacity needed to lead UNICEF's WASH/IPC response and support Government-led coordination across affected and at-risk areas.
