| Adolescence is a critical period of development during which mental health challenges can have lasting impacts. In Bhutan, mental health concerns among children, adolescents, young people, and women are increasing, with anxiety and depression accounting for more than 55% of reported cases, followed by alcohol -related mental and behavioral disorders. In response, WHO and UNICEF launched the Helping Adolescents Thrive (HAT) Initiative, including evidence -based guidelines, an implementation toolkit, a teacher’ s Guide, and a Comic Book to promote adolescent mental health and socio -emotional learning.

International Consultant to Develop, Pilot and Finalize a Competency-Based Safe and Inclusive Schools Teacher Training Package, UNICEF Eastern Caribbean Office, Barbados-remote, 3 months
|
| The Caribbean is highly vulnerable to natural disasters and climate-related hazards that can disrupt education, damage school infrastructure, and affect learning continuity. To address these risks, CDEMA, with support from UNICEF, developed the online Safe Schools: Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience course to strengthen school safety and disaster preparedness among education professionals.
Building on the success of the online course, this initiative aims to develop a competency-based, face-to-face training programme that emphasizes practical skills, peer learning, and school-level action planning. The resulting training package will serve as a standardized regional resource that can be adapted and delivered by Ministries of Education and other institutions to strengthen the resilience and preparedness of education systems across the Caribbean. |
