After discussions with management, the decision was taken to look for outside support for knowledge management and reporting on the whole process and ensuring key point of discussions and decisions as well as lessons learned are well captured. The requested support will also be responsible to draft the ROMP MTR report.

UNICEF is seeking to hire a consultant who will assist the LAC RO to capture the main discussions during this process and write them out in the draft ROMP MTR report, along with the structured relevant information that guides the decision making and the lessons learned throughout the process.

Under the direct supervision of the Regional Chief of Planning, the consultant is expected to manage inputs and coordinate with respective LACRO Sections in the development of the LACRO MTR and related annexes.
