UNICEF in Serbia is seeking a qualified professional for the assignment of Communication Consultant – Climate Change; Ref. Number: VN 61 – 542201

Air pollution represents the single largest environmental risk to health globally. The World Health Organisation has estimated that air pollution was responsible for more than 550,000 premature deaths in the European Region in 2016, 6,592 of which were attributed to air pollution in Serbia. Air pollution is associated with some of the biggest killers of children, such as pneumonia, which is globally responsible for the deaths of 920,000 children under 5 years of age every year. It is also linked with other chronic respiratory conditions such as bronchitis and asthma which can be debilitating, force children to miss school, and even cause long-lasting damage to their health and wellbeing. 

Local self-governments can significantly influence the lives of children in local communities by creating conditions for them to exercise their rights. In recent observations on the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in the Republic of Serbia, the need for further mainstreaming of child and youth participation in policy making, implementation and monitoring processes at national and local levels is emphasized.
