In the past period UNICEF Country Office (CO) North Macedonia supported the development of seven products (evaluation, analysis, studies, research) in different sections (child rights monitoring, climate change, social protection, health) with engagement of local/regional consultants who are not native English speaker.
Some of the products have been developed in local language (Macedonian) and translated by translators who are not native English speakers. One product is Legislation Review of the current laws/bylaws in relation to the Convention on the Right of the Child.

Another product is evaluation report of a program on empowering children and young people to engage in addressing issues related to climate change through experiential learning. The third document is Situational Analysis of the children and adolescents in North Macedonia and the realization of their rights. The fourth document is data and analytical product that compiles available statistical and administrative data on children.

Expected start date of the collaboration is September 1, 2024.
