The national consultant will work in liaison with a wide range of national and sub-national stakeholders, to prepare three different ULD models that will inform the development of ULDs in different contexts (e.g. functioning in high resource/high capacity and low resource/limited capacity environments). A ULD inclusive education reference group, comprising representatives from MoECRT, MoRA, National Commission for Disabilities (Komisi Nasional Disabilitas – KND), Organizations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs), teachers’ groups, relevant Development Partners and UNICEF, will provide technical advice and guidance at key junctures of the drafting processes.
As part of this work, the national consultant is expected to closely coordinate and work with UNICEF’s Disability Inclusion Team and Education Team, who would provide general coordination support (i) to collect data and conduct on site consultation and documentation in three different locations in Indonesia; (ii) to review the related laws and regulations on the establishment of ULDs; (iii) to develop a protocol for the assessment to develop three different ULD models and to analyse collected data and identify key insights and best practices; and (iv) to prepare a strategic brief for ULD establishment, and presentation materials for the policy/advocacy dialogue
The national consultant will also prepare, as needed, other briefing notes, documents and reports associated with the main task, and provide technical support for other coordination activities (for example lead an in-depth analysis session/s with the ULD Inclusive Education Reference Group based on data collected), as necessary.
The assignment consists of two interconnected parts:
Development of three ULD models:
  • Define criteria for selecting the three Inclusive Education ULDs to be assessed in the modelling exercise.
  • Desk review of ULD available literature (incl. best practices from other countries)
  • Identify key stakeholders and relevant actors to be interviewed for data collection process (e.g. school principals, ULD staff, Education Dinas, Primary Health Services, District Social Service, etc).
  • Develop a comprehensive questionnaire tailored for the Inclusive Education ULD assessment, which will comprise of both quantitative and qualitative data.
  • Conduct on-site visits to the chosen ULDs, systematically collecting and compiling data and evidence with identified stakeholders.
  • Analyze key insights and findings from the data collection as a starting point to formulate ULD costed strategic brief.
  • Provide technical support for ULD Inclusive Education Reference group coordination (i.e. preparing presentation materials, facilitate discussions), comprising of key partners, to provide input and feedback on key deliverables (e.g. ULD selection criteria, initial insights and findings from data collection).
Support high level policy dialogue at national/sub-national level to effectively promote and disseminate the key findings of the assessment:
  • Conduct workshop with ULDs, Organisations of Persons with Disabilities and key actors to validate the findings and formulate recommendations for the strategic brief.
  • Develop a costed strategic brief encompassing crucial findings, three ULD models, and step by step guidance for the ULD establishment according to different scenarios. This brief will integrate insights from the ULD Inclusive Education Reference Group and will aim to provide pathways and foundational elements for successful ULD implementation, rather than promoting one ‘ideal’ ULD model. This documentation will serve as a catalyst to expedite the establishment of Inclusive Education ULDs across various provinces in Indonesia.
  • Prepare presentation materials and support the discussions during policy dialogue at national level and in selected districts to be organized by UNICEF to promote and disseminate key findings of the assessment and the strategic ULD models and brief.
