The Child Protection Officer (Child Online Protection and Digital Rights) will provide technical and operational assistance for the development, implementation, monitoring, evaluating and reporting for the child online protection and digital rights programme. Particularly, this position will provide support to the government partners in the execution of the ASEAN ICT Forum to be held in Malaysia in 2025, with a specific focus on child online protection.

Overall, this will involve a strong in-office collaboration for mobilizing business accountability for mitigating online risks and harms, including through safety by design, well-being by design, child rights due diligence, and compliance to minimum standards.

The position will be supervised by UNICEF Child Protection Specialist and overall guidance of the Chief of Child Protection, with a managerial line to Chief Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation (PME) as well under which Child Rights and Business (CRB) falls, and working with other sections such as Technology for Development (T4D) and Communications to work holistically towards the digital rights agenda.

Key accountabilities:

  • Support to children’s digital rights programme development and planning
