Agency: UNICEF | Reference: RFPS CLE 247-2026 | Type: Request for proposal IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Please express interest in participating via email to: licitacioneschile@unicef.org (The "Express interest" button that appears in this notice is disabled). GENERAL OBJECTIVE: To strengthen the capacities of the SLEP Iquique and Tamarugal to conduct and sustain formative, participatory, inclusive, and protective responses to educational coexistence, through the design, implementation, adjustment, and transfer of two work models adapted to their contexts: a route for appropriation and formative use of internal regulations in Iquique and a coexistence management model at the intermediate level in Tamarugal. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES: 1. Develop an applied and participatory diagnosis of practices, capacities, barriers, and opportunities related to educational coexistence, participation, and violence prevention in both services and selected establishments. 2. Design, with the teams of each service and the corresponding actors for each work modality, two territorial models that can be integrated on a common basis: in SLEP Iquique, a route for participatory updating and appropriation of internal regulations with a formative approach, led by the holder; and, in SLEP Tamarugal, a model for managing educational coexistence from the local service, built with its team and the network of coexistence managers of the establishments, which orders the articulation between various roles and allows for differentiated strategies according to the conditions of each management team. 3. Implement and adjust both models during the 2027 school year, with situated support, participation of educational communities, and systematic recording of decisions, adaptations, and learning. 4. Strengthen the capacities of the teams of both services to conduct, accompany, and monitor the models in their establishments, through their direct participation in implementation and the development of their own routines and instruments. 5. Document implementation evidence and deliver a transfer package that allows for the replication or adaptation of the models in other establishments and territories. INSTITUTIONAL PROFILE: Given the scope and requirements of the consultancy, the call is aimed at institutions established in Chile - universities, research centers, consultancies, or other specialized entities - with knowledge and experience in educational coexistence, participation of children, adolescents, and families, socio-emotional well-being, violence prevention, educational pathways, and the Public Education System; in the design and implementation of programs, management models, and technical assistance processes for educational establishments, holders, and public institutions; in strengthening institutional capacities and adult training; in facilitation, participatory methodologies, person-centered design, action research, and adaptive learning; and in implementation monitoring, systematization, tool development, and model transfer. Capacity to deploy in-person work in the Tarapacá Region, including rural communes of Tamarugal, and to sustain remote coordination throughout the service provision is also required. Experience in rural and intercultural contexts, human mobility, special education, and education for young people and adults, as well as knowledge of northern Chile and the existence of an operational base or alliances with institutions in the region, will be especially valued.
