UNICEF works in some of the world's toughest places, to reach the world's most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
For every child, _Education_**
How can you make a difference?
Purpose of Activity/Assignment:
Under the supervision of the Adolescent Development Specialists and Education Advisor the consultant will develop a programmatic guidance on "Skills and school to work transition" that provides strategic direction for UNICEF's work in the areas of skills development, youth agency and school to work transition.
The guidance will draw from the preparatory work that UNICEF's team has done, including a desk review, interviews with UNICEF country office and a first proposal of priority areas.
The consultant's role is to build on the analysis and work done, conduct key meetings especially with potential regional partners and finalize the programmatic guidance.
UNICEF has several guiding documents on this area, from HQ, Generation Unlimited and other regions, and we expect this product to complement contextualize the existing ones and provide accessible, practical and actionable information specific for UNICEF and partners from the LAC region.
Scope of Work:
106 million adolescents and young people in Latin America and the Caribbean are facing physical changes, building skills, and forming social relationships decisive for their development.
The second decade of life is essential in defining who they want to be in the world and who they can become.
However, regional demographic shifts, economic development, and advances in digital technology mean that today's adolescents live in a unique context, facing challenges never seen before.
Because they are growing up in a changing world that requires constant adaptation, building the right set of skills is vital for young people to become agile, adaptive learners and citizens, equipped to navigate school, work, and life.
In 13 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, a quarter of young people between the ages of 15 and 24 are not engaged in education, employment, or training, with the ratio rising to a third in the 18-24 age group.2 More specifically, 9.7 million adolescents aged 10-18 are out of secondary school.
To address the challenges faced by adolescents and young people to develop the right skills and successfully transition to the world of work, UNICEF LACRO is in the process of developing a programming guidance on "skills and transition to the world of work" aimed at strengthening UNICEF's programmatic response and accelerate results for adolescents and young people.
Specific Tasks
- Establish timeline of the process to develop the programmatic guidance.
- Review, systematize and complete the desk review already started by UNICEF LACRO
- Mapping of partnership: identify strategic partnership that can support the implementation of the programmatic guidance and facilitate a consultation process and produce guidelines to identify synergies and prospective areas of collaboration.
- Drafting the final guidance document: based on the 1st draft proposed by UNICEF, prepare a comprehensive document that outlines UNICEF's LACRO approach, principles and strategies for skills development, youth agency and school to work transition. Include practical recommendations, case studies (already mapped by UNICEF), monitoring mechanism and partnership analysis.
- Validation: Facilitate the validation process with UNICEF HQ, LACRO, COs and key partners.
Expected Results
- An inception report available for review and approval
- A partners mapping to support implementation of the programmatic guidance
- A programmatic guidance for "skills development, youth agency and school to work transition."
- A Workshop and PPT presentation
