UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

**For every child, an opportunity...**

Purpose of Activity/Assignment:
The national consultant will support the UNICEF Country Office in Viet Nam in the planning, implementation, and monitoring of humanitarian cash transfer (HCT) programs in response to Typhoon Yagi and subsequent floods in Northen Mountain Provinces of Viet Nam. This role involves coordinating with various stakeholders, including local government, local communities, NGOs, and governmental agencies, cash working group, service providers and UNICEF programme sections to ensure effective delivery of UNICEF supported humanitarian cash assistance that meets the needs of affected populations in a timely and effective manner, to be in line with UNICEF’s Core Commitments for Children (CCC) in Emergency.

**How can you make a difference**?**

Scope of Work:
In response to Typhoon Yagi and subsequent floods and storms, and upon the requests from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development to support affected provinces, UNICEF has been providing critical and life-saving support to the government of Viet Nam to prepare for, take early action, and respond to the emergency. Against this backdrop, and with the increasing request from the government about cash support in response to Typhoon Yagi and subsequent floods, UNICEF Viet Nam has been working with VDDMA/MARD to roll out the UNICEF supported humanitarian cash transfer in affected provinces of Viet Nam.

Worldwide, cash transfers in humanitarian settings are increasingly seen as an efficient, cost-effective and timely means of strengthening resilience of affected communities facing a shock. Through cash support, the affected communities coping mechanisms will be supported towards eliminating the need to resort to negative coping strategies with often have long-term negative impact on the well-being of families and children.

UNICEF’s Core Commitments for Children (CCC), the core UNICEF policy and framework for humanitarian action, upholds the use of unconditional and unrestricted humanitarian cash transfers (HCTs) to ensure that children and their families will have access to financial assistance to help them meet their basic needs in a dignified manner and according to their own priorities. Where markets are functional, the provision of humanitarian cash transfers has been demonstrated to be an effective mechanism to promote well-being of families, stimulate the local economy and speed up recovery and reconstruction efforts.

Due to the need to ensure a timely and effective response to the current emergency, it is necessary to recruit an HCT consultant to enhance UNICEF’s capacity to respond effectively and timely to key commitments in delivering cash support to affected communities.

The Consultant will be required for 75 working days over the period of 5 months from 3 January to 30 June 2025.

Summary of Key Functions/Accountabilities:
1. Provide technical support to UNICEF in planning, implementation and monitoring of HCT as per payment plans.

2. Coordinate UNICEF HCT response at the national and local level, including strengthen UNICEF accountability to affected populations (AAP).

3. Reporting and documentation of project implementation and good practices.

**Location**:
