UNICEF works in some of the world's toughest places to reach the world's most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend your rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories we work for every child everywhere every day to build a better world for all. BACKGROUND Line 102 is a specialized service for listening containment and guidance for the promotion protection and dissemination of the rights of children and adolescents. It is a federal identifiable and visible mechanism of the Comprehensive Protection System that promotes and raises awareness of the rights of children and adolescents. In situations of violation of rights intervention is given to the local body for the application of Law 26061 at the provincial level to ensure their restitution. That is why Lines 102 are integrated into the organizational structures of the children's areas in order to expedite inter-institutional interventions and the comprehensive care and protection of children or adolescents. This decision of operation in the specific areas facilitates that the restitution is in the shortest possible time and with the least impact for those who suffer it and their environment. From practice it contributes to giving visibility and helps to speed up referral or intervention processes and generate articulated work promotion strategies. It is a free and confidential telecommunications service which can be accessed – from mobile or fixed telephony – by children and adolescents if they need advice talk to a person who can listen to them or resort to a crisis situation or threat of violation of their rights. It is also available to any adult who wants to consult for issues that could affect children or adolescents. In order to strengthen comprehensive protection Line 102 is an articulating space between children and adolescents and existing resources to provide care guidance and support; and to promote the strengthening of community networks thus having the possibility of acting from a comprehensive approach from a preventive and promotional perspective. Likewise Line 102 is a tool that provides a space for participation for boys and girls and adolescents to express their experiences receive guidance and request support and information in situations that involve the violation of their rights. The promotion of the right to be heard and to have their opinions taken into account according to their degree of maturity and development is part of the principles that guide the interventions produced from communications with the Line. Challenges. Although important steps have been taken to ensure the existence of the service in the 24 jurisdictions of the country there are still degrees of heterogeneity in terms of the specificity according to the guiding principles and the specialization of the personnel. On the other hand progress is being made in the generation of call and consultation records which allows us to recognize that the main consultants are still adults (in the period October 2020 to September 2021 only 1% of consultations were made by children or adolescents). As an essential service for NNyA it is important that each Line 102 operates under minimum norms and standards and that they generate impact on the target population and the population in general. The focus will be on evaluating the knowledge and opinions of Line 102 in the target populations and the survey of the ways of concreting the service in each province. OBJECTIVES FUNCTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES The contract is aimed at supporting the consolidation and evaluation of the quality of the services provided by Lines 102 in all jurisdictions of the country focusing on the perception of the service by children and adolescents in order to identify and analyze strengths weaknesses and challenges presented by the devices. It is expected the generation of inputs for decision-making for improvement as well as proposals for technological innovation that are required in order to advance in communication with children and adolescents. Specific Objectives * To update information on the operating characteristics of the 24 Lines 102 and their analysis based on the principles that should guide the interventions. * Reconstruct the path that demands travel when it comes to situations of violation of rights (critical path post called). * Accompany the consultation with children and adolescents that will be carried out by a civil society organization. * Propose a technological innovation -based on the proposals of children- to be implemented as a pilot test in a province to be determined.

UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories we work for every child everywhere every day to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up. For every child support The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child everywhere in everything the organization does — in programmes in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive develop and reach their full potential without discrimination bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social political economic civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children which is the universal mandate of UNICEF as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child while also supporting the equitable development of nations.

UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories we work for every child everywhere every day to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up. For every child an advocate How can you make a difference? Background UNICEF promotes the rights and welfare of all children and adolescents in everything we do. Together with our allies we work in 190 countries and territories to transform this commitment into practical actions that benefit all children especially focusing our efforts on reaching the most vulnerable and excluded worldwide. The UNICEF Latin America and Caribbean Regional Office (LACRO) is based in in Panama operating in 36 territories including 24 country offices. As part of UNICEF’s Strategic Plan 2022-2025 a comprehensive set of organizational enablers are outlined in a global framework to represent UNICEF’s contribution to child-related SDGs in all setting. The humanitarian situation for children in LAC region continued to worsen in 2022. The mixed and multi-directional flow of migration reached at the unprecedented level compounded by the widened disparity and deepened poverty exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic exposure to natural hazards and other effects of climate change and the impact of the war in Ukraine. UNICEF in the LAC region has been responding to the outflow of Venezuela migration in South America since 2018 or so closely coordinating with partners and leading four sectors/subsector (Nutrition WASH Education and Child Protection) and Support Spaces Working Group through R4V platforms and other coordination mechanisms. During the last 3 years the migration flow that is principally heading toward Mexico and North America has increased exponentially changing the profile of the migrants from the traditional young male travelers to families with children. At the same time the migration flow in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region has become mixed and multi-directional. The flow has become more fluid and complex especially in Central America and Mexico (CAMEX) directly affected by the frequent changes of US migration policy. UNICEF Country Offices (COs) have been increasingly responding to the humanitarian crisis generated by the increased migration flow with families and children in close coordination with authorities other UN agencies and humanitarian actors. At the same time it is inevitable to note the lack of cohesion in UNICEF’s humanitarian response to Children on the Move across countries in LAC region including joint planning and cross-border coordination among COs for a variety of reasons: the degree of urgency needs capacity and appetite for the humanitarian actions in this context is different from a CO to another; the lack of a clear leadership in coordination; to name a few.
