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, education
Purpose of Assignment:
The purpose of the Assignment is to provide technical and managerial support to ensure effective management of the education programme, including management of the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) funds for the Continuity of Education for Rohingya nationals and host communities under the Cox’s Bazar Field Office. Before the COVID 19 pandemic, UNICEF in collaboration with 14 partners ensured access to education for over 220,000 Rohingya refugee children, which represents over 70 per cent of all refugee children aged 4 to 14 years who have been supported by all partners to have access to education. The Education Programme also supports the Cox’s Bazar District to enhance the delivery of high quality, inclusive and improved learning outcomes for Bangladeshi children. Due to considerably large size (currently supported by 22-member team) and complexities of the programming context in Cox’s Bazar, the education programme requires solid technical, managerial and strategic leadership to ensure effective delivery and accountability for results for children.
