In order to avoid real or perceived family influence or preferential treatment and conflicts of interest that could stem from such situations, the UN Staff Rules provide that appointments "shall not be granted to anyone who is the father, mother, son, daughter, brother or sister of a staff member" (staff rule 4.7 (a)). Short-listed individuals will also be required to complete the pre-appointment declaration of interests for senior positions to identify possible conflicts of interest that may arise and to proactively prevent and manage, as much as possible and in a timely manner, situations in which personal interests may conflict or appear to conflict with the interests of the United Nations, should the individual be appointed to this position This is how cinfo can support you in the application process for this specific position: - Application preparation: Before you apply for this position: Improve your application documents by registering for a [Job Application Support](https://www.cinfo.ch/en/individuals/get-support/career-support-in-international-cooperation/job-application-support-in-international-cooperation).

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks. Background CORPORATE BACKGROUND: UNDP works in about 170 countries and territories, helping to achieve the eradication of poverty, and the reduction of inequalities and exclusion. We help countries to develop policies, leadership skills, partnering abilities, institutional capabilities and build resilience to sustain development results. UNDP is working to strengthen new frameworks for development, disaster risk reduction and climate change. We support countries' efforts to achieve the new Sustainable Development Goals, which will guide global development priorities through 2030. The key 2030 Agenda principle of leaving no one behind and stamping out inequality is at the core of everything we do. UNDP focuses on helping countries build and share solutions in three primary areas: - Sustainable development - Democratic governance and peacebuilding - Climate and disaster resilience In all our activities, we encourage the protection of human rights and the empowerment of women, minorities and the poorest and most vulnerable. INTERNSHIP OFFICE BACKGROUND: Internships offer a small group of outstanding undergraduate and graduate-level students the opportunity to acquire direct exposure to UNDP's work. Internships are not alternative forms of employment. They are a way to offer young professionals the opportunity to complement their studies with hands on experience. This is excellent outreach for UNDP Philippines as well as a chance to have resources for a short period of time for focused contributions. It is the relationship of the work experience to their studies and/or their future academic or career ambitions which gives the internship assignment value. They cannot be used to replace support staff or conduct strictly support functions. While some routine functions may be components of internship assignments, they are intended to be learning and developmental experiences that compliment advanced studies. Providing an opportunity to make substantive contributions to an office's work is an essential requirement of offices taking on interns.

RE-ADVERTISEMENT: PREVIOUS APPLICANTS ARE WELCOME TO APPLY! UNICEF works in some of the world's toughest places, to reach the world's most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up. For every child, an Advocacy on Capacity Building The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does ? in programmes, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children's rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life ? in its social, political, economic, civic and cultural dimensions ? her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society's most disadvantaged citizens ? addressing inequity ? not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.

The GCA's Advocacy Section has three core objectives: - To collaboratively develop, strengthen and implement advocacy, campaigns and communications strategies, with robust monitoring and evaluation, on advocacy priorities. - To build and strengthen strategic partnerships for advocacy ? with Goodwill Ambassadors, civil society, influencers, partner organizations (UN and non-UN) and other actors, to ensure a strategic approach to deploying these partners to increase our advocacy impact - To develop and implement clear plans to build advocacy capacity across UNICEF. Advocacy is at the centre of UNICEF's mandate.

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks. Background Au Sénégal, au Niger, en Sierra Léone et en Guinée, l'agriculture est la principale source de revenus pour de nombreuses femmes pauvres dans les zones rurales. Dans ces pays, le riz est un aliment de base et une culture vivrière essentielle. Mais, en dépit de son importance stratégique pour la sécurité alimentaire, et de son énorme potentiel de contribution à la croissance économique, la création d'emplois et la sécurité alimentaire, le riz local reste peu compétitif et la majorité du riz consommé dans ces pays est importée d'Asie. En effet, la filière est affectée par de nombreux défis. La production locale est relativement faible et souvent de qualité inférieure car elle souffre de l'accès limité des producteurs à la technologie, aux semences améliorées, aux techniques de production modernes, aux engrais et à la mécanisation, entre autres. De plus, la faible accessibilité aux marchés, aux services financiers et non financiers (y compris l'éducation et les réseaux) et aux actifs (terre et capital) contribuent aux faibles performances du secteur. Ces obstacles sont particulièrement élevés pour les femmes dont les micro, petites et moyennes entreprises (MPME) doivent faire face à des barrières sexospécifiques supplémentaires liées aux pratiques traditionnelles ou à des divisions du travail défavorables qui limitent encore plus la productivité de la filière. Formulé par la Banque Islamique de Développement et bénéficiant d'un financement du programme We-Fi (Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative) de la Banque Mondiale, le Projet EWASME (Empowering West African Women Small and Medium Entrepreprises in Rice Value Chain) sera implémenté par le Programme des Nations Unies pour le Développement (PNUD) de 2022 à 2027 pour pallier en partie à ces problèmes dans 4 pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest. Le Projet EWASME vise en effet l'autonomisation des petites et moyennes entreprises pilotées par des femmes dans les chaînes de valeur du riz dans quatre pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest : le Sénégal, le Niger, la Sierra Leone, et la Guinée. Il se focalise sur les phases de post-production de la chaine de valeur à renforcer la capacité post-production d'au moins 1000 petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et très petites entreprises (TPE) détenues ou dirigées par des femmes dans certaines localités de Guinée, du Niger, du Sénégal et de Sierra Leone. Ces entreprises réparties à travers les 4 pays bénéficieront de quatre catégories d'activités. 1. Développement des capacités techniques et commerciales 2. Amélioration de l'accès au financement 3. Amélioration de l'accès au marché 4. Création d'un environnement favorable au développement des PME et des TPE gérées par des femmes Dans le cadre de ce projet, le PNUD un stagiaire au Bureau Régional localisé au Sénégal, pour faciliter la mise en œuvre du projet EWASME en collaboration avec les autres membres de l'Unité de Gestion du Projet et le personnel technique habilité au sein des bureaux pays et du bureau régional du PNUD.
