UNICEF UNV Youth on the Move Programme 2024 – Apply now | Paid UN Volunteer Position
Applications are now open for the 2024 UNICEF UNV Youth on the Move Programme. This program offers talented and passionate refugees, asylum seekers, Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), and migrants aged 20 to 32 the chance to work with UNICEF through a 12-month paid UN Volunteer position.
The initiative aims to create a more inclusive environment at UNICEF for youth on the move who face challenges accessing internships and entry-level jobs due to their migration or displacement status.
The program builds on the success of the Youth on the Move Fellowship Pilot, which ran in partnership with the Migration Youth and Children Platform.
Under this pilot, 23 young people from refugee and displaced backgrounds worked with UNICEF teams across the globe between October 2022 and June 2024.
Don't miss out on the application deadline which is September 29, 2024.
