| 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. |

| UNICEF is working in an increasing number of fragile, violent and conflict-affected settings where children and communities face interconnected challenges, including conflict, displacement, climate shocks, poverty, weak governance and disrupted services. These pressures are straining national and local systems and limiting their ability to protect children and deliver essential services. This consultancy will support the development of a practical UNICEF strategy for engagement in these contexts, helping define UNICEF’s comparative advantage, strengthen the resilience of systems and communities, and promote more coherent, risk-informed and child-centered programming across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus. Drawing on evidence, country experience and existing UNICEF guidance, the assignment will produce a strategic framework to guide programming, advocacy, partnerships, resource mobilization and technical support in fragile and conflict-affected settings. |

| La malnutrition demeure un défi majeur à Madagascar, où une grande partie des ménages, notamment dans le Grand Sud du pays, fait face à une crise alimentaire et nutritionnelle prolongée. La qualité de l’alimentation des jeunes enfants reste insuffisante, en particulier pour les enfants âgés de 6 à 23 mois, une période critique où les besoins nutritionnels sont élevés pour assurer leur croissance.
Face à ces défis, les projets First Food et DEFIS seront mis en oeuvre sous le lead de l’UNICEF et du gouvernement afin de renforcer les interventions sensibles à la nutrition et d’améliorer durablement les conditions de vie et la résilience des ménages. Ces interventions visent notamment à renforcer les capacités des ménages en matière de production, de diversification et de conservation des aliments, à améliorer les pratiques alimentaires et nutritionnelles, ainsi qu’à accroître leur capacité à faire face aux périodes de pénurie alimentaire et aux différents chocs auxquels ils sont exposés.
Dans ce cadre, l'UNICEF souhaite recruter un(e) Responsable Suivi-Évaluation chargé(e) de garantir la mise en place d'un système de suivi-évaluation performant, la qualité des données et la redevabilité envers les parties prenantes pour accompagner la mise en oeuvre des projets First Food et DEFIS. Le(a) consultant(e) aura pour rôle principale de concevoir, mettre en oeuvre et piloter le système de suivi-évaluation des projets First Food et DEFIS, afin de mesurer l'atteinte des résultats, garantir l’apprentissage et la redevabilité et appuyer la prise de décision basée sur des données probantes. |
