Antecedentes

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) envisions to contribute to Africa’s efforts to eradicate poverty and reduce inequalities and exclusion through implementation of UNDP’s Strategic Plan.

UNDP’s regional partnership development and resource mobilization efforts support the effective delivery and sustainability of the Regional Programme and Country Office activities. Of importance is to ensure a systematic and coherent approach to partnerships at the regional level and laying the ground for the effective mobilization of an adequate amount of resources.

As an essential part of the Regional Centre for Africa, the partnerships team provides a strategic, substantive and coherent approach to outreach and partnerships, and creates a meaningful UNDP image. The team collaborates closely with the other units in order to establish linkages between the overall strategy, the programme achievements and implementation.

The team at the Regional Centre for Africa is looking for a competent intern who will support the partnerships and resources mobilization specialist based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
