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 fulfil 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.

UNICEF works to protect and promote the rights and well-being of children and adolescents worldwide, guided by the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Its mandate focuses on ensuring access to health, education, protection, nutrition, and social inclusion, with particular attention to the most vulnerable children and families. In Panama, UNICEF supports the government and partners to improve education, child protection, health, and social services for children and adolescents. The programme places special emphasis on vulnerable groups, including indigenous communities, while also strengthening systems for emergency preparedness and child-focused public policy. UNICEF Panama Country Office is seeking an online volunteer to provide support in data, monitoring, and social policy–related activities. The volunteer will contribute to quality assurance processes, drafting Terms of Reference (ToRs), and preparing workplans, while supporting the effective implementation and coordination of programme deliverables.

We are seeking the support of an online volunteer to carry out the following specific tasks: - Support CO in drafting the first version of a Programme Strategic Note as part of the new Country Programme Document with the Government of Panama, specifically the section on context and child rights situation based on the most current data. - Develop the first draft of a workplan World Bank–UNICEF–MIDES on statistical simulations for improving cash transfers with a focus on children.
