About UNICEF
If you are a committed, creative professional and are passionate about making a lasting difference for children, the world’s leading children’s rights organization would like to hear from you. For 70 years, UNICEF has been working on the ground in 190 countries and territories to promote children’s survival, protection and development. UNICEF is funded entirely by the voluntary contributions of individuals, businesses, foundations and governments. UNICEF has over 12,000 staff in more than 145 countries.
BACKGROUND
Purpose of Activity/Assignment:
The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere. Over the decades, UNICEF has worked to protect the rights of children of all ages — from earliest childhood through adolescence – and will continue to deliver for all children and adolescents under the five goal areas of the Strategic Plan. In recent years, UNICEF’s work to support the unique needs of adolescents has gained momentum, as the challenges facing them have come more sharply into view. The second decade of life is a time of tremendous opportunity – but for far too many adolescents, great risk and increasing challenges.
Building on work across the UN with and for young people, and in line with the UN Youth Strategy, UNICEF in 2018 launched a new global partnership dedicated to skilling and connecting young people, aged 10-24, to opportunities in employment, entrepreneurship and social impact. Generation Unlimited (GenU) is centered on finding new ways to ensure that every young person is in school, learning, training, or employment by 2030 — with a focus on those in the greatest danger of being left behind, including girls, the poorest, those with disabilities, young people on the move and those affected by conflict and natural disasters. This partnership brings together leaders from governments, UN agencies, the private sector, academia, international and civil society organizations, and young people to identify, co-create and scale up innovative solutions to expand opportunities for youth. Young people participate meaningfully in the co-creation of solutions by informing, advising, and helping in implementation every step of the way.
To drive awareness and advocacy around the youth skills-to-opportunity gap and secure action and investment to better prepare young people for the future of work and life, GenU requires the services and expertise of a design consultant to create visual communications materials optimized for engaging partners and advocates internally and externally during specific events and moments.
The consultant will be paid on receipt of each deliverable as outlined below. This is a remote assignment.
Scope of Work:
Under the supervision of the GenU Communications Manager, the Design Consultant will craft and deliver customized presentations and graphics aimed at specific audiences, visualize data and stories for digital and social media, design pitch decks and communications materials for events and key meetings.
The consultant will be responsible for:
