Conformément à la Convention Internationale des Droits de l’Enfant, l’accueil institutionnel est envisagé comme une solution ultime. Néanmoins, face à des environnements familiaux critiques, cette mesure de protection de remplacement devient une nécessité temporaire pour garantir la sécurité de l'enfant. En Tunisie, le ministère des Affaires Sociales (MAS) assume cette mission de protection en accueillant annuellement des centaines d’enfants au sein de ses établissements spécialisés. Ces derniers ont pour mission de garantir un accompagnement individualisé et continu, s'étendant de l'admission de l'enfant jusqu'à sa réintégration familiale, tout en assurant un suivi post-réintégration rigoureux pour consolider la stabilité de son environnement.
Cette consultation vise à renforcer la qualité de prise en charge des enfants accueillis dans les centres à travers la définition d’un référentiel de compétences pour les auxiliaires de vie auprès d’enfants, adapté à la diversité des contextes d’intervention et l’élaboration d’un plan de formation ciblé.
Au sein du Bureau de pays de l’UNICEF en Algérie, ce poste est classé au niveau NO-C(Officier national) et relève du Représentant adjoint. Le/La titulaire assure la direction technique du portefeuille des politiques sociales et de la protection sociale, et supervise le personnel ainsi que les consultants, selon les besoins. L’Algérie est un pays à revenu intermédiaire de la tranche supérieure, caractérisé par une importante population d’enfants et de jeunes (environ 38 % de la population a moins de 19ans). La pauvreté monétaire y est faible, mais la pauvreté multidimensionnelle des enfants est estimée à environ 19 % (CNESE, 2019), atteignant près de 36 % dans les ménages les plus défavorisés et présentant de fortes disparités territoriales. Les dépenses sociales sont significatives — environ 19 % du budget de l’État est consacré aux transferts sociaux — et une réforme ambitieuse du budget axée sur les programmes et la performance (loi organique relative aux lois de finances, 2018 ; entrée en vigueur en2023) est en cours, parallèlement aux réformes de la protection sociale. Dans ce contexte, la mesure de la pauvreté des enfants, les finances publiques en faveur de l’enfance (PF4C), la protection sociale sensible aux enfants et la gouvernance constituent le coeur du portefeuille, en étroite collaboration avec les partenaires nationaux tels que le CNESE, le ministère des Finances, le ministère de la Solidarité nationale et les secteurs sociaux. Le poste appuie également les liens entre développement et action humanitaire, y compris une contribution émergente, en cours de définition, des politiques sociales à la réponse en faveur des réfugiés sahraouis accueillis dans les camps de Tindouf. Le WASH ne fait pas partie du portefeuille des politiques sociales en Algérie.
