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, hope, love and care.**

The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programs, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias, or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic, and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education, and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. Therefore, the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations. UNICEF works in partnership with a wide range of implementing partners, both government and CSO partners, to deliver results for children across the globe. Effective implementing partnership management is therefore essential for ensuring that resources are utilized as intended and results are being achieved.

The Implementing Partnership Management Officer is located in the Regional Office and reports to the Risk & Compliance Management, which is a position within the Regional Operations section. The team provides guidance and oversight to LACR COs in the implementation of Division of Data, Analytics, Planning and Monitoring (DAPM)’s Programme Implementation Procedure and associated Handbook which currently covers work planning, HACT planning and execution, CSO collaboration and PSEA assessment for partners.

UNICEF has adopted the Harmonized Approach to Cash Transfers (HACT), together with other UN agencies, as an approach and management tool for assuring that quality results are achieved through judicious use of resources. It aims at managing risks related to cash transfers to implementing partners. The ultimate goal of HACT is in support of results-based programme implementation, reducing transaction costs, promoting value for money, and allowing progressive use of national systems for management and accountability of resources and demonstrable results for children.
