Vacancy for Consultant(s) for School Assessment of Learn Without Fear Campaign
1. Background
Learn Without Fear is a global campaign initiated by Plan International since 2008 based on the fact that every day, millions of children in the world experience phsycological, gender-based punishment in form of bullying. Bullying is one form of violence often occurs in schools where boys are more likely than girls to be both victims and perpetrators, though there are chances of girls experience the similar condition. Moreover, boys are also more likely to use physical intimidation and violence, while girls tend towards verbal and social bullying in form of peer exclusion. Bullying is often associated with violence at home where children learn that violence is the main way to negotiate a relationship. Children who suffer family violence are more likely to be bullies and be bullied. Bullying is also more common in schools which are overcrowded, with inadequate adult supervision and poor school policies. Children attending schools in violent or poor neighborhoods or where discrimination against ethnic or other groups is accepted are also more likely to experience violence. Most victims do not report what they are suffering because they blame themselves and feel ashamed. Moreover, few victims believe their schools will take real action to improve the situation.
Learn Without Fear campaign is based on the UN Children’s Rights Convention and Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) and is persuaded by the United Nations Secretary-General’s Study on Violence against Children on 2006. The Learn Without Campaign is executed in line with its global campaign yet adapted with local context in Plan’s working area in Indonesia. The campaign will be organized in different level: global level and national level in partnership with other international institution and governments at community and individual level. Using the CCCD approach in grassroot effort is very important as violence against children is another form of abuse to their rights and suffer long term consequences which can ruin their future. The violence is actually predictable and preventable; unfortunately, only the past 3 years that the media awareness about the violence at school issue is raised. This violence can be categorized as bullying, youth gangs, sexual harrasment, weapons, even violence with disciplinary sake like corporal and emotional punishment.
Plan Indonesia has a mission to create a safe environment for children where they are appreciated and their rights are met.

10. Ethical Guidelines
It is expected that consultant(s) should adhere to the ethical issues of Child Protection, which are:
1. Consent: It is important to always get the consent of children when doing a research interview with them or when using their story as part of the research. However, there are some parts of the research like using monitoring forms or general information from statistics that may not need consent as they are about the general situation. Consent can be verbal or written – whichever the evaluation team think is better for the person who is part of the evaluation.
2. Confidentiality: It is important to respect confidentiality within evaluation. For example, it can be useful to change the names of individuals when using their case study in a report – or to use no name. A good practice is that a child is asked first whether an evaluator can share information, before they tell their information to anyone else. But an evaluator should not promise to keep secrets from other team members as this could create problems in the future. It is good to let children know from the outset that the information that they share with the evaluator may be shared with other members of the team. There are some occasions when it may be necessary to break confidentiality – this is when the child is threatened or in danger.
3. Privacy: It is important to respect the privacy of a child and not ask invasive questions. While an adult may be able to say “no, I don’t want to answer that” a child may not be able to say that they feel uncomfortable. It is always good to allow the child the right not to answer any questions and to let them know that is OK.
4. Expectations: It is important that the child does not have their expectations raised unrealistically in evaluation. Therefore, an evaluator should not make promises that they cannot keep.
11. Qualifications and Professional Experience Requirements
The assessment team will consist of the two independent consultants (one consultant will responsible to develop the strategy, methodology, instruments and tools of the assessment while the other consultant will responsible to develop database system using user-friendly program based on the instruments), who have demonstrated capacities and achievements in the professional fields that are directly relevant to this assessment work.

Plan International Indonesia
Learn Without Fear is a global campaign initiated by Plan International since 2008 based on the fact that every day, millions of children in the world experience phsycological, gender-based punishment in form of bullying. Bullying is one form of violence often occurs in schools where boys are more likely than girls to be both victims and perpetrators, though there are chances of girls experience the similar condition. Moreover, boys are also more likely to use physical intimidation and violence, while girls tend towards verbal and social bullying in form of peer exclusion. Bullying is often associated with violence at home where children learn that violence is the main way to negotiate a relationship. Children who suffer family violence are more likely to be bullies and be bullied. Bullying is also more common in schools which are overcrowded, with inadequate adult supervision and poor school policies. Children attending schools in violent or poor neighborhoods or where discrimination against ethnic or other groups is accepted are also more likely to experience violence. Most victims do not report what they are suffering because they blame themselves and feel ashamed. Moreover, few victims believe their schools will take real action to improve the situation.
Learn Without Fear campaign is based on the UN Children’s Rights Convention and Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) and is persuaded by the United Nations Secretary-General’s Study on Violence against Children on 2006. The Learn Without Campaign is executed in line with its global campaign yet adapted with local context in Plan’s working area in Indonesia. The campaign will be organized in different level: global level and national level in partnership with other international institution and governments at community and individual level. Using the CCCD approach in grassroot effort is very important as violence against children is another form of abuse to their rights and suffer long term consequences which can ruin their future. The violence is actually predictable and preventable; unfortunately, only the past 3 years that the media awareness about the violence at school issue is raised. This violence can be categorized as bullying, youth gangs, sexual harrasment, weapons, even violence with disciplinary sake like corporal and emotional punishment.
Plan Indonesia has a mission to create a safe environment for children where they are appreciated and their rights are met. The environment is not only at home or other dwelling place, but also at school. With child-friendly school environment, children will grow to the fullest. Violence at schools, not only will distract learning process, but it will also ruin child’s growth process. In line with the mission, Plan Indonesia initiated an awareness raising amongst the society and stakeholders by developing Sekolah yang Ramah Anak (SRA) or Child Friendly School. The process will begin with a campaign about the importance of SRA. To develop a campaign strategy that meets the core issue, accurate information regarding violence conducts, including bullying, sexual abuse, and corporal punishments in schools are necessary.

10. Ethical Guidelines
It is expected that consultant(s) should adhere to the ethical issues of Child Protection, which are:
1. Consent: It is important to always get the consent of children when doing a research interview with them or when using their story as part of the research. However, there are some parts of the research like using monitoring forms or general information from statistics that may not need consent as they are about the general situation. Consent can be verbal or written – whichever the evaluation team think is better for the person who is part of the evaluation.
2. Confidentiality: It is important to respect confidentiality within evaluation. For example, it can be useful to change the names of individuals when using their case study in a report – or to use no name. A good practice is that a child is asked first whether an evaluator can share information, before they tell their information to anyone else. But an evaluator should not promise to keep secrets from other team members as this could create problems in the future. It is good to let children know from the outset that the information that they share with the evaluator may be shared with other members of the team. There are some occasions when it may be necessary to break confidentiality – this is when the child is threatened or in danger.
3. Privacy: It is important to respect the privacy of a child and not ask invasive questions. While an adult may be able to say “no, I don’t want to answer that” a child may not be able to say that they feel uncomfortable. It is always good to allow the child the right not to answer any questions and to let them know that is OK.
4. Expectations: It is important that the child does not have their expectations raised unrealistically in evaluation. Therefore, an evaluator should not make promises that they cannot keep.
11. Qualifications and Professional Experience Requirements
The assessment team will consist of the two independent consultants (one consultant will responsible to develop the strategy, methodology, instruments and tools of the assessment while the other consultant will responsible to develop database system using user-friendly program based on the instruments), who have demonstrated capacities and achievements in the professional fields that are directly relevant to this assessment work.

As per a recent project restructuring, this project also provides capacity-building assistance to local government at various levels and to civil-society organizations, which aims to a) enable a smooth handover of activities by project closure, and b) promote mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction into policies, planning and development programmes to reduce vulnerability of target groups after project closing.
In support of HFA and the priorities of the Indonesian government, national and local platforms/forums are being established to support and facilitate cooperation and coordination among DRR stakeholders in Indonesia, promote the mainstreaming of DRR in development activities and to provide analysis and advice. Provincial governments, civil-society groups and private sector actors have been working to establish DRR forums in Yogyakarta and Central Java provinces over the last two years, nevertheless, these efforts are consistently constrained by limited resources, lack of adequate budgetary support and weak technical capacity.
In line with the IOM Indonesia Disaster Risk Reduction Strategy (2010-2012), and the IOM-JRF Project Exit Strategy (October 2010), IOM is scaling-up direct assistance to local DRR initiatives to accelerate the activities of sub-national DRR forums in Yogyakarta and Central Java provinces.

institution to develop its capacity. This means that the applicants must:
Obtain permission from their employer for leave of absence for the term of the
fellowship, and provide written certification that s/he will return to the
Party's governmental institution addressing climate change after her/his
fellowship for at least six month;
Get a written certification from their employer that the subject of the proposed
training is relevant to the needs of the organization.
This programme is not intended for students, and does not provide financial
support for an advanced degree, such as fieldwork for a PhD degree.

Priority will be accorded to candidates from SIDS and LDC countries.
Opportunities for work projects and working conditions
There are a wide range of opportunities for fellows in the secretariat. Work
projects may be carried out in any of the secretariat programmes on a number of
issues e.g.. future of climate change, technology, financial assistance,
inventories, mechanisms, etc...
The exact work programme to be pursued will be determined in consultation with
each fellow according to her/his own area of expertise and interest. Once the
work programme is determined, the selected fellow will be placed in the relevant
secretariat programme, under the supervision/guidance of a programme officer
designated by the hosting programme.
Fellows are expected to prepare an analytical paper of 20 - 30 pages containing
the results of their work at the end of the fellowship period. The paper should
be prepared in English to the extent possible, but may also be submitted in
French or Spanish. In special cases, the paper may be prepared in one of the
other official languages of the UN (Arabic, Chinese, or Russian). The paper will
be reviewed by secretariat staff and the secretariat will maintain publication
rights.
Conditions
The fellowship programme annually awards up to five fellowships.
Fellowships are awarded for a period of three to six months.
Fellowships shall normally begin within six months after the award being
offered.
Fellowship periods will be individually arranged to accommodate, to the extent
possible, the particular needs of each fellow.
The award is a fixed, non-negotiable sum which is intended to cover living
expenses at the UNFCCC secretariat in Bonn. In addition, the programme covers
travel costs by the least costly route.
Each fellow must obtain medical clearance and also provide proof of health
insurance with full international coverage before traveling to Germany. It is
the responsibility of the fellow to arrange for insurance against risks
occurring during the fellowship.

adopted the Roadmap for the Integration of Logistics Services in 2007.
Subsequently, a study was commissioned in 2009 to look at progress in
implementing the roadmap and to identify constraints and the underlying factors
of any implementation gap.
To improve implementation levels and fully implement the measures in the
Roadmap, the study has come up with recommendations on specific actions to
address these underlying causes both on the regional and country levels. These
recommendations are grouped into: i) liberalisation of logistics services; ii)
customs and trade facilitation; iii) logistics facilitation; iv) expanding
capacity of ASEAN logistics service providers; v) human resources development;
and, vi) enhancing multi-modal infrastructure and investment. It also suggests
other measures to bring about changes in the institutional and regulatory
frameworks as well as in infrastructure policies for the selected countries to
facilitate the implementation of these recommended actions.
Needs and Objectives
Improving logistics performance is especially relevant to ASEAN Member
States(AMS) considering the need to boost recovery from the crisis and to meet
the challenges of competition so that ASEAN can emerge stronger and more
competitive. A review of earlier studies have identified where gaps and areas
for improvement exists in. In addition, these studies have provided a myriad of
recommendations intended to foster the integration of the ASEAN logistics
sector. The objective of the current study is to:

studies;
· develop workplans, identify specific action programs, implementation
arrangements and capacity building plans - both at regional and national
levels;
· validate these recommendations and workplans, action programs and
implementation arrangements with the relevant ASEAN sectoral bodies and working
groups;
