International Consultancy: Child Protection Information Management Systems Consultant, ESARO (Remote)
To provide a continuum of services (UNICEF CPSS intermediate outcome 3.2.3.) and successfully deliver on the Collective Focus Area to Address Violence against Girls, Boys and Women and SDGs 16.2 and 5.2, Child Protection actors and governments across East and Southern Africa require dedicated case management information management support as a core component of administrative data strengthening. The ESARO Child Protection Section seeks a Regional Child Protection Specialist (Child Protection Information Management Systems) to support Country Offices in ESAR with specific expertise in integrated Child Protection information management tools and platforms, including Primero/CPIMS+ and GBVIMS+. Recognizing that strengthening child protection systems is critical to meaningful and sustainable development for children, and that implementing and advancing the maturity of integrated information management systems is a key impact pathway in UNICEF’s system strengthening strategy, the consultant will directly contribute to mainstreaming this strategy (https://www.unicef.org/documents/child-protection-systems-strengthening). This forms part of a larger process of strengthening the availability, quality and timeliness of child protection data, which is a direct response to the request from Country Offices in the region who have initiated information management system strengthening work at the national level with government partners and other actors, and require technical support and guidance to continue to carry the work forward in a coordinated, contextually appropriate, sustainable and technically robust manner.
