Role Description This consultancy adapts UNICEF’s AI Risk Assessment Framework into an operational approach that supports early, expert-led assessment of the PHIT AI Diagnostic and Treatment App, while evolving into a tool for national health officials. The assignment facilitates timely, risk-informed decisions to accelerate the application's design, procurement, and implementation, while strengthening government capacity through tool development and training. By separating framework application from tool creation, the consultancy balances time-sensitive programme needs with long-term goals of institutionalization, sustainability, and alignment with international AI governance standards. The consultancy will be delivered over approximately 20 weeks and structured across four phases. It combines framework adaptation, application to the PHIT priority use case, and capacity building with government stakeholders. The assignment will follow a dual-track (two-stream) implementation approach, with two complementary workstreams running in parallel: - Workstream 1 (Priority application): Focuses on the early application of an adapted AI Risk Assessment Framework to assess the PHIT AI Diagnostic and Treatment App, generating immediate risk insights to inform design, procurement, and development decisions. - Workstream 2 (System development): Focuses on developing, validating, and institutionalising a user-friendly AI Risk Assessment Tool and governance framework for long-term government use. These workstreams run concurrently and are closely coordinated, with defined points of convergence across four phases: - Phase 1: Establishes a shared interim framework through co-design, regulatory review, and gap analysis. - Phase 2: Prioritises initial risk assessment of the PHIT application (Workstream 1), while initiating testing and validation of the framework and tool with government users (Workstream 2). - Phase 3: Integrates findings from both workstreams into comprehensive risk mitigation and governance guidance. - Phase 4: Finalises the unified framework, tool, and implementation package, and support capacity building and institutionalisation. Qualifications - Masters in artificial intelligence, data science, computer science, public health, health informatics, or a related field. - Additional qualifications or demonstrated expertise in digital governance, risk management, or regulatory frameworks for health technologies is highly desirable. Requirements - A minimum of 5 years of professional experience in AI governance, digital health governance, technology risk assessment or related fields. - Experience working in the health sector, preferably in public health or health systems contexts. - Experience engaging with senior government counterparts and facilitating co-designing processes, including capacity building and systems strengthening. - Fluency in English. Benefits - UNICEF’s Core Values of Care, Respect, Integrity, Trust and Accountability and Sustainability (CRITAS) underpin everything we do and how we do it. - UNICEF promotes and advocates for the protection of the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything it does. - UNICEF encourages applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of gender, nationality, religious or ethnic backgrounds, and from people with disabilities, including neurodivergence. - Reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities throughout the recruitment process.
