As the leading global voice for children, UNICEF has a duty to help make Artificial Intelligence (AI) a force for good and a tool to advance child rights. UNICEF is committed to supporting the responsible development and use of AI, including safeguards that protect children's rights, while also adopting AI applications that can strengthen programme delivery, organizational effectiveness and operational efficiency.
UNICEF is preparing for a rapidly evolving AI landscape through its AI Strategy 2025-2030, responsible AI principles and child-rights-based guidance. The strategy recognizes that realizing value from AI requires not only technology, but also an AI-ready workforce, effective adoption, appropriate governance, human oversight and risk management. Across the organization, staff increasingly have access to learning resources and approved AI tools and platforms, including Microsoft Copilot, UNICEF AI platforms and UNIBOTs, as applicable.
At the same time, AI capabilities are evolving rapidly from general-purpose generative AI tools toward more integrated workflow and agentic capabilities. Staff therefore need more than awareness of AI concepts: they need practical judgement to identify appropriate use cases, use approved tools effectively, critically evaluate AI-generated outputs, protect sensitive information, recognize bias and hallucination risks, and understand when AI should not be used or when enhanced human oversight is required.
Feedback from internal consultations and learning needs assessments within UNICEF Bangladesh Country Office (BCO) indicates that staff would benefit from structured, facilitator-led and hands-on learning that translates existing corporate guidance and self-paced resources into practical application. Staff have expressed a need for contextualized support that reflects different functions, levels of AI experience and day-to-day UNICEF workflows.
Recognizing the strategic importance of AI capability for the future workforce, AI learning has been identified as one of BCO's key learning priorities for 2026. BCO therefore seeks to establish a practical and sustainable AI literacy and responsible adoption programme that combines baseline assessment, role-relevant learning, safe-use guidance, applied exercises, AI clinics, peer support and measurable learning outcomes.

Under the guidance and general supervision of the Chief, People & Culture, the Consultant will design and deliver a structured AI literacy and responsible adoption programme for UNICEF Bangladesh Country Office staff.
The assignment will strengthen BCO's organizational readiness to adopt AI responsibly by building staff capability to understand the opportunities and limitations of generative AI; identify appropriate AI use cases; use UNICEF-approved AI tools effectively; critically assess and verify AI-generated outputs; and apply appropriate safeguards relating to privacy, data protection, information security, bias, transparency, human oversight and child rights.
Particular emphasis will be placed on practical use of Microsoft Copilot and other UNICEF-approved AI platforms, with learning differentiated for varying levels of experience and functional needs. The Consultant will use role-relevant UNICEF-style scenarios and workflows, while ensuring that hands-on exercises use synthetic, anonymized, publicly available or otherwise explicitly authorized information. Emerging capabilities, including AI agents and workflow automation, may be introduced at an awareness level where relevant and approved by UNICEF.
The assignment will complement existing UNICEF corporate learning resources and contribute to a sustainable culture of continuous learning, responsible experimentation and safe AI adoption through practical workshops, AI clinics, reusable guidance resources, an office-level AI use-case catalogue, a small peer/champions support mechanism, and a roadmap for continued AI capability development in 2027.
