Online Volunteer for Event Design and Communications Support

Who we are? UNDP has worked in Mozambique since 1976, with the formalization of a cooperation agreement between UNDP and the Government of Mozambique. The Standard Basic Framework Agreement was signed in 1976, in less than a year after Independence, and establishes UNDP’s presence in the country. What do we want to accomplish? Programme priorities have been defined with national counterparts. UNDP focus is aligned with UNDP Strategic Plan 2022-2025, namely, a) Structural transformation accelerated, particularly green, inclusive, and digital transitions, b) No one left behind centering on equitable access to opportunities and a rights-based approach to human agency and human development, c) resilience built to respond to systemic uncertainty and risk and its six signatures solutions, Poverty and inequality; Governance; Resilience; Environment, Energy and Gender equality, focusing on three interlinked and transformative pillars: Supporting resilient and inclusive economic recovery and diversification, and sustainable livelihoods; Strengthening climate resilience and the sustainable use of natural resources; Promoting inclusive governance, justice, human rights and peace and social cohesion. We are working with the Government of Mozambique, academia, civil society, private sector, and other national and international partners to help find solutions to persistent and emerging development challenges.

UNDP Mozambique’s Inclusive Growth Unit is organizing a high-level Business Breakfast Dialogue on Financing Development in Mozambique. The event will bring together up to 25 representatives from financial institutions, microfinance institutions, fintech operators, extractive industry companies, development finance institutions, government ministries, private sector associations and UN agencies. The dialogue will use the World Café methodology to support structured discussions around four thematic areas: closing the access gap, blended finance and DFI leverage, local content as development finance, and digital finance innovation. To support the event, UNDP Mozambique is seeking an Online Volunteer to design a concise package of branded event materials, including the invitation template, participant programme, thematic table cards, table signs, name badge template and welcome banner/event header. These materials will help ensure that the dialogue is professional, visually consistent and easy for participants to navigate.
