For every child, the right to HopeThe fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does in programs, 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 the health, 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.

For every child, the right to FutureBackground and Strategic ContextThe 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 the health, education, and protection of society's most disadvantaged citizens addressing inequity not only will give more 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.

UNICEF's leadership in Nutrition Information Systems in Emergencies (NIS-E) has long been central to its mandate to protect the most vulnerable children and women in humanitarian crises. Yet the global nutrition information landscape remains highly fragmented characterized by disconnected systems, siloed datasets, and uneven analytical capacity across regions and countries. These challenges have limited UNICEF's ability to anticipate risks, coordinate across sectors, and translate evidence into early and effective action. Meeting this demand requires a fundamental shift from fragmented data collection to a coherent, institutionalized, and forward-looking nutrition information ecosystem.Under the leadership of the Unit Chief and Senior Advisor, Nutrition Data, in the Data and Analytics Section and the Senior Nutrition Advisor, Child Nutrition and Development in Emergencies in Nairobi, this role will be the focal point for UNICEF's global engagement on nutrition risk assessment, strengthening the use of nutrition data in emergency, supporting country teams to estimate the number of children at risk of wasting in humanitarian contexts, and enhancing UNICEF engagement in critical global food security initiatives (such as Integrated Phase Classification (IPC). The role will also support localization, digital innovation, and strengthen the institutionalization of NIS-E across UNICEF structures and national systems, strengthen partnerships with WFP, FAO, WHO, IPC, and academia, and ensure that evidence consistently drives foresight, advocacy, and investment decisions.If you would like to know more about this position, please review the complete Job Description here: JD - Nutrition Emergencies (Data and Analytics) _P4_TA To qualify as an advocate for every child you will have?

However, the long history of conflict as well as deep rooted political and tribal divides, corruption, and lack of transparency has greatly stalled social and economic development.In August 2022, the Government of Sudan unilaterally announced a 2-year extension of the Transitional Government to implement the outstanding Articles of the Revitalized Peace Agreements The office may move from Port Sudan to Khartoum if security conditions allow.The national economy is facing rising debt and significant depreciation of the Sudanese Pound (SP), what some believe to be real signs of potential hyperinflation. Since the onset of the global economic crisis and the continued signs of volatility in the national economy, the situation is expected to worsen during 2023, especially for the most vulnerable populations and push more people into deeper poverty.On the humanitarian front, Sudan continues to face deteriorating conditions. The situation is worsened by endemic violence, conflict, access constraints and operational interference, public healtchallenges such as measles and cholera outbreaks and climatic shocks resulting in extraordinary flooding and localized drought. These in turn have a severe impact on people's livelihoods, hamper access to education and water, sanitation and hygiene and health services. Protection concerns remain high, especially for women and girls.

As such this will be a core contribution of UNICEF to a humanitarian development peace nexus strategy aligned with other UN agencies and positioning UNICEF as a key actor for investing in capacity building of government institution to gradually take ownership of social service delivery by contributing public funds and reducing the reliance on Official Development Aid (ODA).For every Child, you demonstrate...

Visit our website pour mieux apprendre sur notre travail a l'UNICEF.Pour chaque enfant un avenirMalgré sa vaste superficie physique et ses ressources naturelles, la République démocratique du Congo (RDC) est l'un des pays les plus pauvres du monde, se classant au 176e rang sur 188 pays dans le rapport 2015 sur le développement humain. La pauvreté des enfants est généralisée, en particulier dans les zones touchées par les conflits et difficiles à atteindre. Selon une étude récente de l'UNICEF, 80 % des enfants âgés de zéro à 15 ans subissent au moins deux privations majeures de leurs droits. Malgré une croissance soutenue ces dernières années, la taille de l'économie de la RDC reste bien trop faible pour fournir suffisamment de recettes publiques pour répondre aux besoins fondamentaux de la population, des enfants en particulier. Depuis 2016, l'instabilité politique, la persistance des conflits dans l'Est de la RDC et la forte baisse des prix mondiaux des matières premières ont été des facteurs aggravants.Comment vous pouvez faire la difference?1- Planning S'assurer que les activités de construction en cours et prévues sont planifiées conformément aux attentes en matière de délais, de budget et de qualité, et que les ressources et processus nécessaires sont en place.
