Operating across 190 countries and territories, our aim is to work for every child, every day, creating a better world for all.

Assignment Background:

The promotion of breastfeeding is a vital intervention with a significant impact on ensuring children receive proper nutrition. In the Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs), malnutrition remains a pressing issue. UNICEF is actively involved in strengthening systems across 14 PICTs to improve nutrition and health services delivery. Despite efforts, suboptimal breastfeeding practices persist in the region.

  • Propose actions to address bottlenecks: Consultants will develop strategies to overcome bottlenecks and provide tailored capacity building plans for each country.
  • Support integration and institutionalization: Consultants will work with Ministries of Health to integrate BFHI steps into existing frameworks and support capacity building efforts for health workers.

Qualifications:

  • Medical or advanced university degree in fields like nutrition, midwifery, public health, or related disciplines.

Experience and Skills:

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in breastfeeding-related work, including clinical settings.
  • Experience in BFHI training and mentorship, preferably with relevant certifications.
  • Prior work experience in developing countries and familiarity with the Pacific Islands region are advantageous.
  • Effective communication and pedagogical skills, ability to work independently under challenging conditions.
  • Fluency in English is mandatory, additional local language proficiency is beneficial.

For Every Child:

Applicants should embody UNICEF's values of Care, Respect, Integrity, Trust, Accountability, and Sustainability (CRITAS).

Important Remarks:

The consultancy engagement will be based on a Long-Term Agreement for up to 24 months, with possible renewal, subject to performance evaluations and service needs. Adherence to UNICEF standards and principles is mandatory, including zero-tolerance for misconduct and strict child safeguarding policies.

Only shortlisted candidates will proceed to the next stage of the selection process. Take action now to contribute to the well-being of children worldwide
