Historique

UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

In the Europe and Central Asia region, the Regional Office provides support and oversight to seven Country Offices in Albania, Georgia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova and Ukraine. In addition, programme/project presence is directly supported by the RO, in Kosovo, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Serbia, Tajikistan and Turkey. Since it was established in 2014 in Istanbul, UN Women Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia (ECA RO) has established itself as one of the key players in gender equality and women’s empowerment and as a champion for women and girls in the region. Regional communications and advocacy efforts have been an integral part of the office’s positioning in this regard. UN Women ECA RO communications will continue to expand on the successful foundation that it has built over the years.

Reporting to the Regional Communications and Advocacy Specialist, the Communications Analyst is responsible for assisting in the planning and implementation of the Office communications and advocacy strategies to increase awareness about gender equality and women’s empowerment issues in the region and to increase the standing and awareness of UN Women with partners, the media and the public.
