The UNICEF Office of Innovation (OOI) is a newly restructured office for UNICEF with its main office located Stockholm and hub offices established in Helsinki, Copenhagen, Geneva and Barcelona.
In the aftermath of the Office of Innovation’s expansion and remodeling, there is a need to ensure that internal processes, governance and financial structures are fit for purpose and up to speed with the recent trends to enable OOI to deliver on its mandate efficiently and effectively and strengthen its positioning as the Innovation arm of the organization.
UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
And we never give up.
For every child, innovate!
The Office of Innovation is a creative, interactive, and agile team in UNICEF. We sit at a unique intersection, where an organization that works on huge global issues meets the start-up thinking, the technology, and the partners that turn this energy into scalable solutions.

The purpose of this internship is to advance brand development of the new model of the Office of Innovation through in-depth market research of the existing trends and practices in the field and propose recommendations to strengthening the existing brand, formulate strategies for both inward and outward facing brand development and implement the new proposed recommendations using a user-centered perspective and a service approach. The output will be a set of recommendations drawn from learnings and extensive research on similar models, public innovation set-ups, successful Innovation structures and governance models. The intern will share key recommendations on expanding the current scope of OOI’s partnerships, based on analysis of the existing and proposed partnerships and support the OOI brand development through identifying key events, globally where OOI’s footprint could be impactful. The intern will also be responsible for management of OOI’s representation in these events and support the Director’s office on the Director’s participation and management of his social media channels to further strengthen the OOI brand.
The Innovation Architecture and Governance is expected to work in a consultative manner across the organization, in close collaboration with the Partnerships and Communications team and the Chief of Operations under the overall supervision of the Director, Office of Innovation.
The intern will be responsible to engage through appropriate channels with other United Nations organizations, partners, government and public organizations, regional/country and HQ offices and other stakeholders.
