Job Description
Age Assessment Consultant
AGORA
Role Description UNICEF supports achievement of SDG 8.7, to take immediate and effective measures to secure the prohibitions and elimination of the worst forms of child labour, including the recruitment of child soldiers. UNICEF is also working to enforce Article 39 of the Convention of the Rights of the Child (CRC), and the Optional Protocol to the CRC on Involvement of Children in Armed Conflict and the Paris Principles and Guidelines for children associated with armed forces and armed groups. UNICEF supports recovery and reintegration of children affected by armed conflict in an environment that fosters health, self-respect and dignity of the child. UNICEF further takes action to support governments in their obligations to fulfill the 12 UN Security Council resolutions related to protecting children affected by armed conflict, and repatriation and reintegration of foreign children stranded in conflict zones, and the recognition that children associated with armed forces or armed groups are survivors of human rights violations and should be treated primarily as victims. UNICEF also remains guided by its Core Commitments for Children in Humanitarian Action, its Strategic Plan 2022-2025 and its Child Protection Strategy 2021-2030 all of which prioritize protection of children in armed conflict. Between 2005 and 2022 the UN verified more than 105,000 children as having been recruited and used by armed forces or armed groups. Many children are also detained for their actual, alleged, or perceived association with armed groups or on national security charges. “Verified cases ... have been documented in 25 countries since 2005” and have gradually increased over time. Determining that an individual is a child can prevent the person’s recruitment and use, facilitate their separation from armed actors, bring them under the jurisdiction and application of the special protections of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and its Optional Protocols, and juvenile justice laws and procedures, and ensure that they are treated primarily as victims. Age assessment processes therefore constitute one of the most powerful tools to directly protect children in these situations. In 2024, in the course of the update of the Technical note on Age Assessment, the need for additional operational guidance, tools and training became apparent to enable effective, coherent, and context-appropriate application of age assessment standards and practices across diverse settings. In this context, UNICEF seeks the services of a consultant to develop implementation tools to enable the correct application of the updated guidance on child friendly age-assessment procedures to help both facilitate support of and advocacy for this highly vulnerable group of children, and to better protect and fulfil their rights.
