Background |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
UNDP’s commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is fundamentally rooted in the Universal Declaration for Human Rights, especially its principles of Equality and Non-Discrimination. It is also a key driver in the delivery of UNDP’s mission to “to end poverty, build democratic governance, rule of law, and inclusive institutions”. To achieve this mission, UNDP developed the People for 2030 Strategy (“People for 2030”) which aims to progressively transform UNDP’s culture and capacity to deliver more and better results – enabling the organization to successfully deliver its mission. People for 2030 includes a commitment to strengthening a future-ready and inclusive workplace, focusing on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI). To support these efforts BMS/OHR is launching a flagship “Speak Up Culture” initiative. The efforts UNDP is investing in further diversifying its already global and multi-cultural workforce will be enhanced through this initiative. In building diverse teams, psychological safety, trust and belonging become paramount. When diverse opinions, experiences and knowledge can be leveraged without fear, more personnel will feel empowered to share alternative and innovative perspectives that benefit the organization, enabling better service delivery and building stronger partnerships. UNDP’s Speak Up Culture initiative will introduce and catalyze the key cultural elements that will strengthen UNDP as an inclusive workplace. The introduction of Speak Up Culture elements will underpin UNDP’s broader Diversity, Equity and Inclusion strategy, and will also accelerate People for 2030 efforts. To support Speak Up, and bolster ongoing cultural change efforts, the Office of Human Resources is seeking an individual consultant (IC) who would serve as a Social and Behavior Change Communications specialist (SBCC), to design, develop and deliver organizational behavior change communication products.

The purpose of this consultancy is to design communication approaches and products that encourage staff to speak up and take advantage of the Safe Space programs. The consultant will drive demand for the safe space programme through the development of behavior change communications which will also catalyze the activation of inclusive principles UNDP’s workforce.
