The ESARO Child Protection Section seeks a Regional Child Protection Specialist (Child Protection Information Management Systems) to support Country Offices in ESAR with specific expertise in integrated Child Protection information management tools and platforms, including Primero/CPIMS+ and GBVIMS+. Recognizing that strengthening child protection systems is critical to meaningful and sustainable development for children, and that implementing and advancing the maturity of integrated information management systems is a key impact pathway in UNICEF’s system strengthening strategy, the consultant will directly contribute to mainstreaming this strategy
