For every child, Security

Jordan is a middle-income country where UNICEF’s comparative advantage is technical assistance and evidence-based advocacy to support child-friendly Government programs and policies. With the recent humanitarian situation and greater attention to vulnerable children, it has become even more imperative and relevant for UNICEF to demonstrate and advocate for “what works” to achieve results effectively and efficiently for children.

UNICEF supports the Jordan Government, in partnership with NGOs and civil society, to strengthen capacities to address inequities and disparities in access to quality essential social services, especially basic education and protection of children. UNICEF focuses on generating and strengthening the management of information for optimal planning and implementation of inclusive and child friendly policies in health, education, and child protection. UNICEF's humanitarian response to the Syrian refugee crisis includes support to child protection, education, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), child cash grant and nutrition for children and families in camps and host communities. Public Finance for Children (PF4C) is a major work area for UNICEF under the social inclusion outcome with the goal “to contribute to the realization of

children’s rights by supporting the best possible use of public budgets.” In specific, working toward achieving the following objectives:

(a) Sufficient resources are allocated for child-related policies and programs, including by mobilizing additional funds, for full implementation,

(b) Spending for children is made more efficient by timely disbursement and reducing leakages,

(c) Result-based budging and value for money approaches are adopted for more effective spending for children,

(d) Resources are better distributed to promote equitable spending with greater attention to disadvantaged groups and areas,

(e) Citizens including children and adolescents are empowered to monitor and participate in budget process for more transparent and accountable spending.

Since 2009, UNICEF Jordan in partnership with the government and national partners engaged in child rights budgeting project to quantify allocations for children within the framework of the General Budget Law.

The project aimed at examining the government’s policies, plans and budgets associated with child rights and generated information for improving service delivery, especially for the most disadvantaged children.

UNICEF engagement also encompassed technical assistance to national partners, capacity building, and policy engagement with decision makers through budget briefs, investment cases, and other PF4C products.

The objective of this internship is to support the implementation of UNICEF MENARO security department.
