A World of Development Experience

Put your ideas, experience and expertise to work.

At the United Nations Millennium Summit, the

world's leaders pledged to cut global poverty in half
by 2015. The United Nations Development
Programme is charged with helping make this
happen. We want your help to do it.

As the UN's global development network, UNDP is at the

forefront of today's development dialogue in championing
the poor and disadvantaged. Our focus is on providing
developing countries with knowledge-based consulting
services and building national, regional and global
coalitions for change. With a strong history of inclusion
and consensus-building, UNDP has earned the trust and
partnership of leaders across the developing world.

We are now hiring a new generation of expert practitioners

who want to contribute to those partnerships by offering
strategic approaches to long-standing problems. We seek
individuals who can communicate advice and new ideas
across cultures and all strata of society.

We have a wide range of international opportunities at

various levels; competitive salaries offered commensurate
with experience.

UNDP actively supports the Convention on the

Rights of Persons with Disabilities adopted by the
United Nations General Assembly. To learn more,
