About the Consultancy

UNICEF is seeking an international consultant to develop and implement an AI Risk Mitigation Framework for the Pacific Healthy Islands Transformation (PHIT) initiative. This 6-month contract role involves remote work with potential travel. The consultant will adapt UNICEF's existing AI Risk Assessment Framework into an operational approach to support early, expert-led assessment of the PHIT AI Diagnostic and Treatment App. The objective is to enable timely, risk-informed decisions for the app's design, procurement, and implementation. This consultancy also aims to build the capacity of national health officials to utilize this framework and associated tools for long-term sustainability and alignment with international AI governance standards.

Project Structure and Objectives

The assignment is structured across approximately 20 weeks, employing a dual-track implementation approach. Workstream 1 focuses on applying the adapted framework to the PHIT app to generate immediate risk insights. Concurrently, Workstream 2 concentrates on developing, validating, and institutionalizing a user-friendly AI Risk Assessment Tool and governance framework for government use. These workstreams will converge to integrate findings, develop comprehensive risk mitigation and governance guidance, and finalize the unified framework, tool, and implementation package, including capacity building and institutionalization efforts.

Key Responsibilities

  • Adapt UNICEF's AI Risk Assessment Framework into an operational approach for the PHIT AI Diagnostic and Treatment App.
  • Facilitate timely, risk-informed decisions to accelerate the application's design, procurement, and implementation.

  • Separate framework application from tool creation to balance time-sensitive program needs with long-term goals of institutionalization and sustainability.
  • Ensure alignment with international AI governance standards.
  • Co-design an interim framework through regulatory review and gap analysis.
  • Prioritize initial risk assessment of the PHIT application and initiate testing and validation of the framework and tool with government users.
  • Integrate findings from framework adaptation and tool development into comprehensive risk mitigation and governance guidance.
  • Finalize the unified framework, tool, and implementation package.
  • Support capacity building and institutionalization of the developed framework and tools with government stakeholders.

Qualifications and Experience

  • Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Computer Science, Public Health, Health Informatics, or a related field.
  • A minimum of 5 years of professional experience in AI governance, digital health governance, technology risk assessment, or related fields.
  • Experience working in the health sector, preferably in public health or health systems contexts.
  • Experience engaging with senior government counterparts and facilitating co-designing processes, including capacity building and systems strengthening.
  • Fluency in English.

Required Skills and Competencies

  • Strong understanding of international AI governance frameworks and standards (*, NIST, WHO, ISO).
  • Ability to translate risk assessment findings into practical mitigation and governance actions.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement and facilitation skills, including co-design with government counterparts.
  • Proven ability in capacity building and systems strengthening, including training and knowledge transfer.
  • Ability to work across technical, policy, and operational domains.
  • Experience in digital governance and technology policy.
  • Experience in health systems strengthening, particularly in primary health care or digital health contexts.
  • Experience working with governments or international organizations on digital governance or technology policy.
  • Experience in multi-country programs, preferably in low and middle-income (LMIC) or small island developing states (SIDS) contexts.
  • Familiarity with Pacific Island countries' health systems, governance, and digital health contexts is advantageous.

Contract Details and Application

This is a contract position with a duration of 6 months. The working arrangement is remote, with potential travel required. The consultancy is open to international candidates. Qualified candidates are invited to submit an up-to-date TMS profile and curriculum vitae (CV), a cover letter, a separate financial proposal in the specified format, and a detailed technical proposal outlining their methodology and work plan.
