Description

Background

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core principles at UNDP: we value diversity as an expression of the multiplicity of nations and cultures where we operate, we foster inclusion as a way of ensuring all personnel are empowered to contribute to our mission, and we ensure equity and fairness in all our actions. Taking a ‘leave no one behind’ approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations. People who identify as belonging to marginalized or excluded populations are strongly encouraged to apply. Learn more about working at UNDP including our values and inspiring stories.

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks.

Mozambique continues to face recurring climate-related shocks that disrupt access to essential services, particularly health, protection, psychosocial support, and information at community level. These impacts are disproportionately experienced by adolescent girls and young women, internally displaced persons, and persons with disabilities, especially in climate-affected provinces such as Zambézia. UNDP Mozambique is implementing an emergency programme that supports restoration of essential services, strengthens district-level systems, and integrates advocacy, communication, and community engagement as core components of effective service delivery. Within this context, UNDP seeks a Field Communications Intern based in Quelimane to support community-level communication, documentation, and feedback processes that contribute to inclusive, rights-based, and accountable programme implementation.
