This role is pivotal in building institutional capacity, supporting utility resilience, and promoting sustainable, equitable access to WASH services in urban and peri-urban areas, including public institutions. Organizational Context and Purpose for the Job Background 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 the health, education and protection of a 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. WASH is one of the basic social service and advocacy programme areas that UNICEF supports in Sudan towards fulfilling the right, development and protection of vulnerable children.

How can you make a difference? 

The intern will gain hands on experience carrying out functions to work in one of the various portfolio areas hosted at the Office of Innovations. The applicant is to identify preference for first priority and second priority areas most interested to work with from the following thematic and portfolio areas:

Humanitarian Innovation

Innovation for humanitarian action is crucial to effectively reduce vulnerabilities to shocks and build resilience, particularly in a context of dwindling resources and ever-increasing number of ongoing crises. To help accelerate results for children in humanitarian contexts, the [Humanitarian Innovations Portfolio](https://www.unicef.org/innovation/humanitarian-innovation) at UNICEF works to transform humanitarian action to ensure cutting-edge ideas are applied to use cases in the humanitarian space. By identifying key major challenges in the humanitarian field today, UNICEF: 

- Supports Country Offices to pilot, accelerate and scale innovative solutions to address their most pressing challenges 
- Team up with partners to bring the latest tech from the private sector and adapt it for humanitarian action 
- Leverage the humanitarian innovations ecosystem across UNICEF and beyond 
This portfolio area focuses on how innovations can support increased reach and coverage to people affected by conflict, climate, and public health emergencies, while ensuring inclusive humanitarian action of vulnerable populations and the hardest-to- reach children. The current solutions of the portfolios focus on, but not limited to, equal access to energy supply in conflict settings, remote tracking tools in humanitarian supply chains, digitalizing feedback mechanisms to inform humanitarian programming, machine learning translation for a more inclusive humanitarian response. 

 Climate, Energy and Infrastructure portfolio

[Almost every child on earth is exposed to at least one of the major climate and environmental shocks and stresses.](https://data.unicef.org/resources/childrens-climate-risk-index-report/) From megadroughts and blistering heatwaves to staggering flooding, half of the world's children, totaling one billion, are deemed to be at extremely high risk due to a deadly combination of high exposure to climate hazards and inadequate services to support them.

The UNICEF global climate innovation portfolio aligns with a diverse partner network to champion impactful solutions, especially with and for communities in the over 190 countries where we have presence. With a shared purpose, we catalyze increased investments to source, pilot, iterate, and scale solutions so that they help change these communities' realities and hopes around climate change. UNICEF's climate change innovation portfolio is currently scaling transformational climate solutions across 22 countries in four thematic areas: Air Pollution, Climate Policies for Children, Waste Innovation & Circular Economy, Disaster Preparedness and Risk Reduction.

 Health Portfolio

Global inequities in access to maternal and child health services affect pregnancy and childbirth outcomes, routine immunizations, and protection against sexually transmitted infections.

The [Health Innovation Portfolio](https://www.unicef.org/innovation/health-innovation) addresses these challenges by equipping of local health workers with high-resolution data and advanced analytics to better understand and meet health needs. It also supports providing health services that are tailored to the needs of adolescents, including sexual and reproductive health and rights. To ensure that every child survives and thrives the UNICEF Health Innovation portfolio contributes by:

- Developing and scaling transformative health innovations that address the specific challenges faced by children and young people, ensuring effective impact.
- Strengthening the innovation capacity of UNICEF health programs and partners within local health and innovation ecosystems.
- Catalyzing thought leadership and partnerships in health innovation by facilitating dynamic networks of innovators, academics, and industry leaders
The portfolio currently focuses on innovation in health systems, achieving universal health care (UHC), particularly through innovation at the community level, and innovation in major health priorities (maternal, child, newborn, adolescent), and communicable and non-communicable diseases.

 Monitoring, Evaluation, Learning / Knowledge Management team

The goal of the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL)/Knowledge Management (KM) team is to maximize the impact of UNICEF's innovations globally through rigorous, data-driven evidence. In short, we care about what works in innovation, and why. And we care about bringing these insights to UNICEF globally and beyond. Our work spans across an expansive range of initiatives, from generating direct evidence on our innovation initiatives, to providing thought leadership in innovation scaling and providing corporate guidance on measurement and evidence in innovation.

 Governance Portfolio

Innovation Governance coordinates and supports the Global Innovation Portfolios and Innovation across UNICEF as a three-tier system – thematic team, innovation steering committee and global innovation board. The Governance Secretariat is a crucial mechanism for the coordination of UNICEF-wide efforts for innovation action and scale with the thematic portfolios. By coordinating across all portfolios, division and partners, UNICEF aims to: 

- Drive the implementation of organization-wide innovation action and priorities aligned with UNICEF programme
- Create an enabling environment and ecosystem for innovation with governments and partners
- Build innovation maturity and scaling pathways leveraging portfolios, partnerships and people.
This work currently focuses on cross-portfolio initiatives, governance set-up/operationalization, collaboratives and ecosystem strengthening.

Upshift

UPSHIFT is a UNICEF global skill development solution. It empowers young people to devise real-world solutions to the challenges they see around them by providing them with the tools, mentorship and hands-on experience to help turn ideas into action. UPSHIFT is operational across 56 countries, has graduated 5.2 million young people to date and is on track to reach another 1.5 million in 2025 with the acceleration of results being driven by UPSHIFT integration into Education Systems across 13 countries and transition to digital blended delivery models to increase scale and lower costs.

 Design function

The design function within UNICEF Office of Innovation works across thematic innovation portfolios. Our in-house designers who work with the innovation portfolios support with:

- 1) How to best innovate by ensuring innovation processes (from problem framing and user research to ideation and rapid prototyping of solutions) are inclusive and participatory, equitable and agile.
- 2) What innovative solutions are most desirable and relevant by our stakeholders by keeping people at the center and (re)designing solutions for local contexts.
- 3) designing for strategic direction and decision-making.
As designers within the Office of Innovation, we bring a unique set of mindsets, principles and expertise which strengthens UNICEF's capacity to be co-creative and co-innovative. Our workflows are informed by human-centered design, strategic design thinking, creativity and lean startup frameworks, to mention a few.
