Advocacy Specialist (NOC), FT, Mogadishu, Somalia #A100713 (Internal only) Timebound Up to 31 December 2027 Somalia, Kenya
Somalia has faced long-standing conflicts, political instability, and insecurity, compounded by droughts, floods, and food shortages. These factors have significantly impacted the health of the population and severely disrupted Somalia’s delicate healthcare system, leading to some of the poorest health outcomes for mothers and children worldwide. The leading causes of under-five mortality are pneumonia, diarrhoea, measles, and malnutrition, with pneumonia and diarrhoea alone claiming 21% and 18-20% of under-five deaths, respectively, while the leading causes of maternal mortality are postpartum haemorrhage and hypertension disorders. The Somali Federal Ministry of Health, acknowledging that despite significant improvements in health outcomes for women, children, and adolescents over recent decades, progress has stalled. The trend is further exacerbated by worsening rates of malnutrition, poor water supply, sanitation and hygiene, low health literacy for young people, and the impacts of conflict, climate change, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic as well as other social determinants of health. These have impeded efforts to fulfil relevant commitments made to advance the objectives and targets of the Global Strategy for Women’s, Children’s and Adolescents’ Health (2016–2030) and the related road maps.

Child Protection Specialist (CPIE), P-3, Temporary Appointment (182 Days), Center Area, Wadi Madani, Sudan, (Open to non-Sudanese nationals) Post # 132350 Sudan
The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programmes, in advocacy, and in operations. The equity strategy, which emphasizes 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 the opportunity to survive, develop, and reach their full potential without discrimination, bias, or favoritism. To the extent that any child faces unequal chances in life — in social, political, economic, civic, and cultural dimensions — their 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 provides all children with the opportunity to fulfil their potential but also promotes sustained growth and stability in countries. This focus on equity is vital as it accelerates progress toward 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.

National Legal Consultant on Child Rights for UNICEF Armenia CO Armenia
Since late 2022, Armenia has received over 115,000 refugees—including 36,000 children—primarily fleeing Nagorno Karabakh due to severe shortages of essentials such as food, medication, and electricity. These children now make up 6% of Armenia’s child population and are vulnerable to mental health and psychosocial challenges. A joint Multi-Sector Needs Assessment by the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs and UNICEF (2023–2024) found that 26% of refugee households reported at least one emotionally unstable family member. In response, the Human Rights Defender’s Office (HRDO), with UNICEF’s support, is conducting interviews to assess human rights and child rights conditions and will produce an ad-hoc report. A consultant, under UNICEF’s supervision, will analyze findings and develop report chapters, contributing to Outputs 4.1 and 4.2 of the Armenia–UNICEF Country Program 2021–2025.
