The Comoros Country Office operates in a remote, and operationally complex environment, characterized by the recurrence of cyclical humanitarian crises alongside ongoing development programming, requiring sustained agility, adaptability, and responsiveness in workforce planning and delivery. The context is further influenced by a constrained local labour market, as well as broader socio-economic dynamics that may affect workforce sustainability and staff wellbeing over time. In parallel, the transition to a multi-country office (MCO) configuration calls for enhanced coordination, collaboration, and strategic alignment across locations.
The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programmes, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias, or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic, and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in health, nutrition, education, and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.
Communication and advocacy are central to UNICEF Indonesia’s efforts to promote child rights, strengthen public engagement, demonstrate thought leadership, and motivate action for children. To ensure that UNICEF communication and public advocacy products are compelling, accurate, audience-focused, and aligned with UNICEF writing standards and brand guidance, UNICEF Indonesia seeks to engage an individual consultant to deliver high-quality English writing, editing and quality assurance services over an 12-month period. The consultant will be responsible for producing agreed deliverables, including written, edited and quality-assured communication materials, based on specific requests as agreed with the communication team, timelines, and inputs provided by UNICEF.
