Gender & Adolescent Programme Officer – Temporary appointment – 364 days - Grade P2 # 136135- Cotonou – Benin WCAR
|
| Benin is a middle-income country that faces many challenges in guaranteeing the rights of every child. Ranked 158th out of 191 countries on the Human Development Index (UNDP, 2021/2022), it has significant disparities between urban and rural areas, and between girls and boys. Since 1977, UNICEF has been working closely with the government, civil society, technical and financial partners, young people and communities to improve access to education, health services, protection, water, sanitation, nutrition and social policies for children.
The 2024-2026 cooperation program pays particular attention to girls' education, protection against violence, community health, and the fight against child labor. Present in the field through its offices in Cotonou, Natitingou and Parakou, UNICEF is committed to working alongside the most vulnerable communities to guarantee concrete, lasting results.
The UNICEF Benin office is looking for committed, creative and motivated professionals to make a difference in the life of every Beninese child. |

Consultant – WASH Innovation Capacity Development Strategy, Office of Innovation, Copenhagen, Denmark, 4 months (remote)
|
| UNICEF’s Sustainable WASH Innovation Hub (‘the Hub’) is seeking a consultant to develop a Capacity Building Strategy that will equip UNICEF Country Offices, regional teams, governments, and key partners with the capabilities needed to adopt, adapt, and accelerate innovative WASH solutions at scale. Building on the Hub’s vision to drive transformational, climate‑resilient WASH innovations, the strategy will strengthen the ability of national and local actors to deploy emerging technologies, leverage innovative financing, and embed evidence‑driven approaches into programmes that address the most pressing WASH challenges. This assignment forms a critical pillar of the Hub’s next phase (2026–2029), as UNICEF expands its leadership in elevating high‑impact solutions towards multi‑regional adoption.
The consultant will work closely with the WASH Innovation Hub, the new WASH Global Program, global WASH networks, UNICEF Country Offices, and a diverse ecosystem of partners to define the competencies, systems, and resources needed to strengthen innovation capacity across contexts. This includes documenting existing capacity approaches, identifying gaps, synthesising global best practice, and proposing a coherent framework with clear pathways, milestones, and enabling conditions for sustained capacity development. The resulting strategy will help position UNICEF’s new Nairobi‑based WASH Centre of Excellence and the Hub as global drivers of capability strengthening—empowering governments, practitioners, and local innovators to deliver climate‑resilient WASH services at scale, and ultimately shaping a more equitable, water‑secure future for every child. |
