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, _empowerment_**
How can you make a difference?

Background
UNICEF promotes the rights and welfare of all children and adolescents in everything we do.

Together with our allies, we work in 190 countries and territories to transform this commitment into practical actions that benefit all children, especially focusing our efforts on reaching the most vulnerable and excluded, worldwide.


The UNICEF Latin America and Caribbean Regional Office is based in in Panama, operating in 36 territories, including 24 country offices.


The Business and Community Resilience (BCR) initiative was officially kicked off in 2020 with a bootcamp that introduced the initiative and allowed participants to explore and share ideas about how they felt the private sector could catalyze child-centered humanitarian action and resilience.

Since then, four BCR focal points are in place at the regional and country levels (Eastern Caribbean Area, Guatemala and Peru), steering the initiative forward.

Private sector engagement in relation to humanitarian action and resilience was embedded into the three BCR country CPDs (MCDP case of ECA) and further streamlined through annual work plans.

Since 2020 there are 13 CPDs that mention working with the private sector in relation to humanitarian action and resilience, which clearly highlights the interest to not only diversify resources, but also the importance to build partnerships with private sector actors at the national level catalyzing localization agendas in line with the Core Commitments for Children.

Also, since the inception of BCR in LAC eight countries have shown interest in the initiative.


During the past 20 months, key public and private relationships have been fostered with the national civil defense and inter-governmental bodies, multi-stakeholder business platforms, individual companies, UN agency private sector initiatives and more.

Government bodies are keen to develop and execute training material, while private sector platforms interested in strategically finding ways to connecting with public entities to respond to disasters and build community resilience.

Preparedness continues to be an area that needs to be intentionally addressed. Everyone realizes it is priority but how and when needs grounding.

UNICEF should not only include the private sector in its sectorial preparedness planning and activities, but it should also advocate with its partners to involve the private sector in preparedness activities (simulations, tabletop activities, contingency/response planning).

The private sector is clearly seen as a partner in the Core Commitments for Children and private sector engagement is a cross-cutting change strategy.

Also, there is space to work on Children's Rights and Business in relation to the Children's Rights and Business Principles - No.

9, focusing on respecting Children's Rights in the context of emergencies and the increased focus of businesses on Environment, Social and Governance (ESG).


The Latin America and Caribbean regional office seeks to support UNICEF country office teams with their engagement and partnerships brokering with business.

Currently the country offices face the challenge of lacking clarity or specificity when presenting the opportunity space and pitch to their business counterparts.

This consultancy seeks to address this gap/ need with the development of brochures that feature the value proposition in key areas.


Purpose of the Assignment


UNICEF technical and representative staff need clear and concise materials that they can use and share with their counterparts from companies and industry chambers to start the conversation and open the door for creative ways of engagement across the humanitarian cycle.


UNICEF seeks a consultant to develop 6 brochures on the main strategies / interventions that UNICEF promotes towards the private sector in humanitarian action in the Latin America and Caribbean region.


  • The development of these brochures will be based on:
  • Previous successful experiences and examples of participation of business in emergency preparedness and response, with UNICEF or with the humanitarian sector in general
  • The prioritization of the most relevant ones to engage with business in their context
  • The spaces where UNICEF Emergency, Climate Environment, Disaster Recovery and Risk Reduction (CEED), Development Programmes, Operations, Comms and Social and Behaviour Change (SBC) specialists see the most cl
