Background:
In Ukraine, UNICEF is partnering with the EU to support the Government of Ukraine to build and support functioning of the Coordination Center for Family Upbringing and Child Care Development (the Coordination Center). The vision of the Coordination Center is to ensure that all children in Ukraine live in a safe and nurturing family with access to сhild-centered social services that meet Ukraine’s needs and that are aligned with EU policies. The Coordination Center is an advisory body to the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine (CMU).
The main goal of the Coordination Centre is to strengthen the Government of Ukraine’s capacity to deliver on the vision of Better Care, a vision where Ukraine prioritises safe and nurturing family care for all children. This initiative seeks to support Ukraine’s recovery, and policy objectives to develop a care system, which will: (1) Strengthen families and keep them together by investing in more social services that address their current needs; (2) Provide family alternatives (e.g., foster care, guardianship and adoption) for children without adequate parental care; and (3) Safely reintegrate children in institutions into family care while transforming institutions into community and social service providers to meet community needs and maintain employment for staff.
In order to ensure that the global objectives of the Coordination Centre are fulfilled, the role of the National Consultant for the provision of technical programme & supply support for the Better Care Reform is expected to support the collaboration between key partners and facilitate delivery of greater Better Care results for UNICEF and children of Ukraine.
