Antecedentes

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the leading United Nations organization fighting to end the injustice of poverty, inequality, and climate change. Working with our broad network of experts and partners in 170 countries and territories, we help nations to build integrated, lasting solutions for people and planet. We help countries develop strong policies, skills, partnerships and institutions so they can sustain their progress.

In Cambodia, under its current Country Programme (2019-2023), UNDP Cambodia programme offers focus on development results across three key inter-dependent pillars including inclusive and sustainable growth, environmental protection, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and the opportunities for all to contribute to and benefit from Cambodia’s transformation. Pivotal to our approach is our partnership with the Royal Government of Cambodia, civil society groups, community organizations, development partners, and the private sector on issues related to the Cambodia’s Sustainable Development Goals (CSDGs).

The Communications Unit is playing significant roles to communicate UNDP’s results and thought leadership. This is important to demonstrate the Country Programme’s impact through influencing the development and implementation of relevant policies and programmes at both national and local levels. These roles range from working with media agencies, giving support in managing the Country Office’s online presences, producing relevant reports and multi-media products to organizing public events.

We are now recruiting up to three international communications consultants on Long Term Agreement to support the Country Office (CO)’s Communications Unit to deliver these results more effectively and meaningfully.
