Country Offices and government partners are requesting more frequent and more specialized assistance—often linked to climate shocks, programme scale-up, innovation pilots, and time-sensitive financing opportunities. Meeting this demand requires flexible, timely and high-quality technical support, delivered in close collaboration with the Climate Resilience Centre of Excellence, the Office of Innovation, UNICEF country and regional offices, other programme divisions, and external partners. To meet this growing need, UNICEF is establishing a Global Roster of Climate Innovation & Technology Experts, which will serve as a stand-by mechanism to provide UNICEF with rapid access to pre-qualified exerts who can design, assess, pilot and scale innovations that strengthen the climate resilience and continuity of essential services, accelerating results for children in the face of a changing climate. It allows the organization to: • Scale technical capacity on demand as CO and government requests increase • Mobilize experts rapidly for time-sensitive programme, innovation or financing needs • Match the right expertise to specific assignments across sectors and regions • Strengthen collaboration across the CoE, Office of Innovation, COs, ROs, HQ divisions, and partners • Ensure high-quality, consistent, and timely technical support
