<p>Mission and objectives</p><p>UNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories to save children’s lives, defend their rights, and help them fulfil their potential, from early childhood through adolescence. At UNICEF, we are committed, passionate, and proud of what we do. Promoting the rights of every child is not just a job – it is a calling. UNICEF is a place where careers are built: we offer our staff diverse opportunities for personal and professional development that will help them develop a fulfilling career while delivering on a rewarding mission. We pride ourselves on a culture that helps staff thrive, coupled with an attractive compensation and benefits package. </p><p><br></p><p>At the core of UNICEF’s universal mandate is our commitment to protect and uphold the rights enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) for all children – without discrimination and without leaving any child behind. The rights enshrined in the CRC apply equally to all children in a country, including children who are non-nationals or stateless, refugee and international migrant children. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education, social protection, and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged residents — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfil their potential, but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. A dedicated focus on children on the move is critical to meet the SDGs commitment to leave no one behind. UNICEF’s Strategic Plan (2026-2029) reflects children on the move across Goal Areas and as an important cross-cutting priority, supporting global commitments such as the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and Global Compact on Refugees. The Strategic Plan commits UNICEF to a renewed focus on inclusion of children on the move into education, child protection and social protection systems to tackle root causes for forced displacement or unsafe migration, discrimination and exclusion.</p><p>Context</p><p>The Education Centre of Excellence is advancing its knowledge and evidence base on Children on the Move, refugee inclusion, learning continuity, alternative pathways, and evidence-informed programming as part of its work supported by the PROSPECTS Partnership.</p><p>Thus, the purpose of this assignment is to support the UNICEF Global Program Division (GPD) Education Centre of Excellence (CoE) in strengthening knowledge management, evidence generation, and learning on the inclusion of refugee, displaced, and migrant children and adolescents in education systems, with a particular focus on learning continuity, access, progression, and educational inclusion.
