Special Recruitment

Demands for UNV assignments come from more than 140 countries and cover a wide range of professional skills and competencies. The majority of UNV assignments are filled by candidates from our database who have expressed an interest in becoming UN Volunteers. 

Therefore, the best way to be considered for a UNV assignment is to register your profile in our database of potential candidates.  If you wish to do so, please go to register to be a UN Volunteer.

In some cases, we seek additional applications for a specific area of professional expertise or for projects which require larger numbers of UN Volunteers. Only the Descriptions of Assignments (DoA) for such assignments are posted here. This is not a complete list of all current UN Volunteer opportunities.

*** Special Recruitment for Youth***

The UN Youth Volunteer modality aims to mobilize Youth between 18 and 29 years old. UN Youth Volunteer assignments are posted here or on partner websites, and viaFacebook and Twitter. Carefully read the description of assignment (DOA) which includes information about requirements and instructions on how to apply. To know more about the Youth programme, please visit our dedicated webpages.
