Pakistan, with a population exceeding 240 million, faces persistent challenges in poverty, social exclusion, gender inequality, and vulnerability to disasters and emergencies. Over 38% of Pakistanis live in multidimensional poverty, with deep disparities at provincial and district levels, exacerbated by social exclusion, discrimination, and violence against marginalized groups, especially women, children, and minorities. The COVID-19 pandemic, recurring natural disasters, and ongoing humanitarian crises have further exposed the fragility of community systems and the urgent need for robust, inclusive, and resilient community engagement mechanisms
Social norms, information gaps, and low trust in public services further hinder service uptake. Technical solutions alone are insufficient; robust community engagement (CE) is essential to expand service reach, strengthen frontline systems, and address behavioral, social, and structural barriers. However, current CE efforts are fragmented and inconsistently linked with service delivery.
Community engagement emerged as one of the most effective components across the SBC portfolio . It relies on trusted local actors, culturally grounded approaches, participatory delivery, and regular interpersonal contact. These strategies helped shift knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours across sectors including health, WASH, education, nutrition, child protection, and polio.
The SBC formative evaluation highlights that interpersonal, community embedded delivery was the central driver of behaviour change. By leveraging community trust, local insights, and repeated face to face engagement, programmes were able to overcome social barriers, build ownership, and make desired behaviours more practical and acceptable for households.
The Federal Ministry of Education launched the Nigeria Education Sector Renew Initiative (NESRI) with education data as one of the core pillars for education reform. Subsequently, the Ministry initiated the Nigerian Education Data Initiative (NEDI) to strengthen sector-wide data collection, management, analysis and use.

To help the government mainstream the EMIS in the education sector and institutionalize it as a sustainable system, UNICEF seeks to hire a national consultant who provides technical expertise to lead the data systems interventions with the Federal Ministry of Education and state governments.
