The Global Social Service Workforce Alliance is seeking a regional consultant in East Asia and the Pacific. The purpose of the consultancy is to support mapping and assessment of the social service workforce in six countries in East Asia and the Pacific (Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Mongolia, Thailand and Vietnam).
A process will be undertaken to engage a country level task group in gathering data for a desk review on normative national frameworks, for an assessment questionnaire related to workforce development, and for a worker survey related to support for the social service workforce (SSW). Once data gathering is underway, a national roundtable discussion will be held to discuss preliminary findings and to identify and agree on priority actions for strengthening and advocating for the social service workforce. Information from this process will be integrated into a final regional report as well as an advocacy paper.
