Purpose of Activity/Assignment:
Mobilize the participation of children and adolescents in the process of formulating, monitoring and evaluating the 5-year and annual Socio-Economic Development and Sectoral Plans for 2026-2030 of the three provinces of Soc Trang, Ca Mau and Bac Lieu, especially related to environmental protection and climate change response.
Scope of Work:
Viet Nam has, over the past 30 years, achieved remarkable socioeconomic progress. Reforms and investment in human capital have stimulated an economic transformation that has propelled the country into lower-middle-income status. The UN Common Country Analysis in Viet Nam confirmed strong progress across several Sustainable Development Goals. However, according to Viet Nam’s 2020 National Report, too many people have not yet benefited from or have been left out of this rapid ascent into a modern, connected economy, while inequalities have grown and deepened requiring specific, sustained investments to better deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals.
The Government of Viet Nam has demonstrated its commitments to child rights and children. Specifically, priorities for children are expressed through the 13th Party Congress’s Political Document, the 2021-2030 Socio-economic Development Strategy, 2021-2025 Socio-economic Development Plan, the national targeted programme on sustainable poverty reduction, the new rural programme for development for ethnic minority and mountainous areas, and the National Action Program on Children for the period 2021-2030.
Despite progress made on child rights, multidimensional child poverty remains significant (10.7 per cent), with disparities between rural and urban areas (13. versus 6 per cent) and among ethnic minorities (33.1 versus 6.3 per cent for the majority of Kinh and Hoa). Viet Nam is one of the countries most vulnerable to the effects of climate change, ranked sixth by the Global Climate Risk Index in 2020. Children living in the poorest households are significantly more affected by the consequences of extreme weather events. 50 per cent of studied children living in the poorest households in Viet Nam had experienced at least one extreme weather event that affected the household economy, compared to 17 per cent of the least poor households.
The project "Child-Friendly Policies and Plans for the Period 2023-2026" between the Ministry of Planning and Investment and UNICEF is expected to enhance the institutional capacity of the Ministry of Planning and Investment in policy formulation and implementation based on evidence. This aims to better fulfill children's rights, particularly in planning, resource mobilization, implementation, and monitoring of socio-economic development plans, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the national targeted programmes (NTPs).
The Department of Science, Education, Natural Resources, and Environment (DSENRE) of the Ministry of Planning and Investment is the national focal point for implementing sustainable development and green growth. It is also responsible for formulating and monitoring socio-economic development plans (SEDPs) and medium-term public investment plans in the fields of education and training, science and technology, and natural resources and environment. Under this project, DSENRE/MPI in conjunction UNICEF designed activities with a focus on promoting children's rights in the implementation of sustainable development goals, green growth, environmental protection, and climate change response.
Therefore, within the project framework, DESENRE/MPI and UNICEF plan to recruit national consultants with effective methods for capturing the opinions and perspectives of children and adolescents on issues related to environmental protection and climate change in the three provinces of Soc Trang, Bac Lieu and Ca Mau.
Objectives:
The overall objective of this assignment is to facilitate the meaningful participation of children and adolescents in the process of formulating, monitoring and evaluating the 5-year and annual Socio-Economic Development and Sectoral Plans (2026-2030) of the three provinces of Soc Trang, Ca Mau and Bac Lieu, especially related to environmental protection and climate change response.
Specific objectives include:
- Design and roll-out effective methods to collect opinions from children (including boys, girls, vulnerable children such as children with disabilities, children from poor hous
