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.

And we never give up.

For every child, a champion


UNICEF in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is composed of 24 country offices that work in 36 countries and territories.

The main role of the regional office (RO) is to provide technical assistance, build the capacity and exercise quality control to the 24 country offices.


The Social Policy Unit (SPU) at UNICEF LACRO works in the provision of technical assistance, quality assurance and evidence generation in relation to policies for the eradication of child poverty, including the strengthening of social protection systems; the transparency, adequacy, equity and efficiency of child-focused public investments; and the governance, decentralization, and accountability measures to increase the quality, equity and coverage of social services in support of Social Policy Officers and Specialists in UNICEF's country offices.

Efforts are aimed at UNICEF putting the rights and well-being of the most disadvantaged children at the heart of the social, political, and economic agenda, in line with our equity focus, working across our organization and with our partners in government, civil society and the private sector to support shifts in public policy, fuel social engagement, and increase investment for children.


Despite the significant achievements that Latin America and the Caribbean has made with poverty reduction since the start of the century, there were at least two warning signs that preceded the pandemic.

First, in recent years, the region has experienced a rise in poverty levels.

Thus, between 2014 and 2019, Latin America's poverty rate rose from 27.8% to 30.8%, while extreme poverty increased from 7.8% to 11.5% (ECLAC, 2019).

Second, poverty and extreme poverty affect children and adolescents more than other age groups.

This age bias in well-being is a historical trend in the region and it is associated with the fact that the State still covers only a limited portion of the consumption of children and adolescents, which is basically assumed by their families.

However, international experience indicates that this pattern is not an unavoidable fate for the region:

it can be changed, as indicated by the path taken by various developed countries (Rossel, Filgueira and Rico, 2015; Filgueira and Rossel, 2017, as cited in ECLAC and UNICEF, 2020).


The pandemic has worsened the situation, and while the region is recovering, the process has been slow and uneven, and has put children's present and future wellbeing at high risk.

Today, poverty and extreme poverty incidence among children between 0-14 reaches 46% and 18% respectively in 2021 (ECLAC, 2021), and UNICEF estimations based on pre-pandemic household surveys suggest that one every two children in LAC (51.

2%) live in multidimensional poverty


As we approach the EU-LAC Summit (July 2023), SDG Summit (September 2023) and World Children's Day (November 2023), UNICEF plans to develop and disseminate a series of papers on the situation of children and adolescents in Latin America and the Caribbean, to support advocacy and programming efforts.


Purpose of the Assignment


This consultancy aims to support the Social Policy Unit in the research, data analysis and writing two policy papers, one on the situation of children and adolescents in LAC, and the other one on best social policy practices from the region.


The comparative regional analysis and recommended best practices will support UNICEF's advocacy efforts in the region and globally in 2023.

It will also serve to strengthen the call for compliance with the rights embodied in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and to continue keeping girls and boys at the centre of the public debate in Latin America and the Caribbean.


How can you make a difference?

Specifically, the consultant will:

  • Compile and analyse existing data (e.g., from ECLAC, World Bank, UNICEF, UN Agencies, Governments, Committee on the Rights if the Child and other organizations) on the situation of children in Latin America and the Caribbean region. Compare trends across countries, including investment in social sectors compared with outcomes for children, and best practices related to social policies with a positive impact on children and adolescents.
  • Produce a paper (approx. 20 pages), ppt presentation and twopager on the situation of girls and boys in LAC, with a focus on investment in social sectors, as of May 2023, using a child rights and SDG framework. The paper will focus on child pover
