Education Cannot Wait (ECW) is the first global fund dedicated to education in emergencies and protracted crises. It was launched in 2016 during the World Humanitarian Summit by international humanitarian and development aid organizations, along with public and private donors, to help reposition education as a priority on the humanitarian agenda, usher in a more collaborative approach among actors on the ground and foster additional funding to ensure that every crisis-affected child and young person is in school and learning.
Based on the recognition that continuous access to quality learning is a priority for children and families affected by armed conflicts, forced displacement, climate-induced disasters and protracted crises - and that no single programme nor organization can do it alone - ECW is as a ground-breaking initiative bringing together public and private partners eager to work together differently and mobilize the funding required to deploy immediate and sustainable solutions.
ECW's mandate is articulated around five core functions:
- Inspire political commitment so that education is viewed by both governments and funders as a top priority during crises.
- Generate additional funding to close the $8.5 billion funding gap needed to reach 75 million children and youth.
- Plan and respond collaboratively, with a particular emphasis on enabling humanitarian and development actors to work together on shared objectives.
- Strengthen capacity to respond to education in emergencies and protracted crises, nationally and globally, including the ability to coordinate the response.
- Improve accountability by developing and sharing knowledge, including collection of more robust data, in order to make better-informed investment decisions, and knowledge of what works and does not.
ECW is hosted by UNICEF. The Fund is administered under UNICEF’s financial, human resources and administrative rules and regulations, while operations are run by the Fund’s own independent governance structure that provides strategic guidance and oversight to its investments. ECW’s day-to-day activities are carried out by a Secretariat under the direction of the Director of Education Cannot Wait.
The incumbent will work under the guidance and direct supervision of the Chief of Advocacy/Communications, in the ECW Secretariat, which is currently hosted by UNICEF and is based in New York City.

UNICEF is committed to diversity and inclusion within its workforce, and encourages all candidates, irrespective of gender, nationality, religious and ethnic backgrounds, including persons living with disabilities, to apply to become a part of the organization.
UNICEF has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the United Nations and UNICEF, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment, abuse of authority and discrimination. UNICEF also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles. All selected candidates will be expected to adhere to these standards and principles and will therefore undergo rigorous reference and background checks. Background checks will include the verification of academic credential(s) and employment history. Selected candidates may be required to provide additional information to conduct a background check.
Remarks:
ECW is hosted by UNICEF. The Fund is administered under UNICEF’s financial, human resources and administrative rules and regulations, while operations are run by the Fund’s own independent governance structure that provides strategic guidance and oversight to its investments. ECW’s day-to-day activities are carried out by a Secretariat under the direction of the Education Cannot Wait Director.
If selected for this post, the resulting appointment will be limited to ECW, a UNICEF hosted fund. While UN staff regulations and rules, as well as UNICEF policies and procedures, apply during the appointment, certain provisions therein may apply differently due to the limited scope of the appointment.
This applies equally to UNICEF internal candidates, if they are selected for and appointed to this post. The scope of their appointment will thereafter be limited to ECW, and in order to return to a UNICEF appointment outside ECW, they will need to be selected in a competitive recruitment exercise. In particular, they will not be eligible or subject to rotation exercise, conversion to a continuing appointment, or priority in selection process for UNICEF posts outside ECW, during their appointment.
Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted and advance to the next stage of the selection process.
