Consultancy: Trainers on mental health and child protection for Six Months in UAE
3 months ago
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
For every child, Protection
UNICEF Gulf Area Office (GAO) supports the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and its line ministries and authorities to advance the rights of children under the framework of a Gulf Area Programme , extended to 2025.
Through this framework, UNICEF GAO signed AWPs with its partners in the UAE, the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood (SCMC) and Sharjah Child Friendly Office (SCFO) to work on key areas in collaboration with different authorities (both public and private) to implement programmes on Early Childhood Development (ECD 1000 days), Child Protection, Data, and Child Friendly City Initiative (CFCI).
A key UNICEF programme in UAE is child protection, including a focus on mental health antibullying.With COVID19 pandemic that impacted children and adolescents worldwide, UNICEF expanded its programming engagement in the country, to include child protection related issues which addresses issues such as child protection online, mental health and psychosocial support, Antibullying, social work force strengthening and overall strengthening of child protection systems.
Other areas include supporting overall policy reforms and capacity in the area of early childhood development and data for children.
Other key partners that contribute to this national priority include Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Interior, Community Development Authority among others.
One of the key priorities for the year 2024 include child protection related issues such as mental health and psychosocial support, antibullying in schools, social work force strengthening and overall strengthening of child protection systems.
The lead partner, Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood (SCMC) has confirmed the organization of a global mental health forum in November 2024 in Abu Dhabi.
SCMC is also preparing for rolling out a community based mental health awareness and capacity building initiative as a build up to the forum in November 2024.
On the other hand, in , UNICEF in collaboration with SCMC, MoE, and other partners developed a comprehensive antibullying program and a bullying prevention training manual based on the 6 methods for intervention: direct sanctions, restorative practice, mediation, support group, shared concern, and strengthening the victim.
A section on social skills activities was also developed which compiled different interactive activities to equip students with adequate social skills.
The program was implemented in 64 public and private schools across UAE.
UNICEF recently concluded the evaluation of the antibullying program in schools, and one of the key recommendations was to scale up the program among all schools in UAE.
Based on that, SCMC, UNICEF and Emirati School Establishment (ESE) agreed to start the first phase of scaling up in all public schools in Abu Dhabi Emirate estimated at 200 schools across Abu Dhabi City, Al-Ain, and Al-Dhafra.
The next phase will include private and public schools in the Northern Emirates in collaboration with ESE and other educational local authorities.
UNICEF is seeking a pool of consultants/trainers (5-6) to be based in the UAE, (or be available in person when the training take place) to work with the programme team in Abu Dhabi to support the SCMC and its partners in scaling up the Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) and Antibullying training, especially with the capacity building initiatives for school community.
Once phase I is completed, the consultant contracts may be extended to start phase II of the training in other Emirates.
There are training packages already available for Psychological First Aid (PFA) and I Support My Friends.The trainers will only adapt the content to suit the needs of the target groups and the work expected for this is minimal.
The trainings for scaling up anti-bullying and for rolling out of PFA and ISMF will be coordinated and overseen by two existing lead consultants who are on board with UNICEF to support the project.
How can you make a difference?
The consultancy seeks to support the UAE partners in the capacity building initiatives on mental health and child protection.
The consultant will be responsible for the following Tasks:
- Support in the roll out of the capacity building initiatives as trainers for the MHPSS and Antibullying trainings including:

\- Hold training sessions in Arabic/english for groups of trainees on Antibullying and MHPSS on the training materials
