The Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has declared an outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease affecting Ituri and other affected or at-risk provinces. National authorities, with the support of humanitarian partners, have activated emergency coordination and response mechanisms to contain transmission and protect affected communities.
The outbreak is unfolding in a complex humanitarian environment marked by insecurity, population displacement, high mobility, constrained access to essential services and weak water, sanitation, hygiene and infection prevention and control systems. These conditions heighten the risk of transmission in health facilities and communities and require rapid, well-coordinated and technically rigorous WASH/IPC action.
The geographic expansion of the outbreak, the operational complexity of the response and the need to align interventions across national, provincial and health-zone levels require senior leadership. An experienced profile is therefore required to provide the strategic expertise, technical authority and convening capacity needed to lead UNICEF's WASH/IPC response and support Government-led coordination across affected and at-risk areas.

L’Associé(e) aux programmes (G-6) est intégré(e) à la section Programme et relève du chef de la section. Ce rôle fait le lien avec la mise en œuvre opérationnelle en assurant une liaison régulière avec plusieurs unités — Programme, Opérations, Finances, Approvisionnement — ainsi qu’avec des partenaires externes, notamment les ministères, les ONG et les donateurs.

According to UNICEF Afghanistan MICS 2022-2023 data, 29.8 per cent of children aged 3-17 years have some type of functional difficulty.3 According to evidence, challenges in analysis and design of programmes for people and children with disabilities limited their access to services and equitable outcomes. A lack of specific indicators to track progress for people and children with disabilities hampers the ability to measure and prioritize their needs effectively.
This assessment is needed because children with disabilities in Afghanistan face heightened and often invisible barriers to accessing essential services, including health, nutrition, education, child protection, and social protection, particularly in a context of increasing poverty, displacement, and restrictions on participation. At the same time, disability data and systematic analysis remain limited, constraining evidence-based planning, equitable targeting, and accountability to Leave No One Behind commitments. By combining a situation analysis with an internal readiness assessment, UNICEF Afghanistan and partners will be better positioned to identify practical entry points for disability inclusion, strengthen program design and implementation, and ensure that interventions reach and benefit children with disabilities in a measurable and sustainable way.
