UNICEF is seeking for a Consultant who will coordinate the TeamOne community engagement, strengthening participation, knowledge exchange and collaboration across the global network while supporting agile processes for digital advisory services.
Join UNICEF as a WASH Officer in Damascus, supporting safe water, sanitation and hygiene services across five southern Syrian governorates. The role offers an opportunity for WASH professionals with relevant development and humanitarian experience to contribute to sustainable, resilient programmes that improve public health and the well-being of vulnerable communities.
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 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 purpose of this consultancy is to provide time-bound technical and coordination support to strengthen UNICEF’s institutional approach to internal displacement and its advocacy and programming for child-sensitive durable solutions. The consultant will support a structured review and revision of UNICEF’s Institutional Action Plan on Internal Displacement and deliver priority internal-displacement workstreams managed by the Migration and Displacement Hub.
The assignment will help ensure that UNICEF’s global priorities reflect current evidence, organizational learning and country-level realities, and clearly position UNICEF’s contribution to preventing and addressing internal displacement, protecting the rights of internally displaced children and supporting durable solutions. The consultancy has a global remit and will support MDH’s engagement with country offices, regional offices, headquarters divisions and relevant global teams.
This assignment aims to strengthen UNICEF’s knowledge management on gender equality and support the implementation of the UGEAP 2026–2029. The consultant will develop, curate and disseminate gender-related knowledge products, facilitate knowledge exchange and capacity building, and promote mutual learning across UNICEF to improve the visibility, accessibility and use of gender-related tools, evidence and good practices.
