Youth Advocates Programme: applications now open
The new talent programme by UNICEF and UNV aims at empowering young people, including youth with disabilities, to become agents of change
UNICEF has launched the Youth Advocates programme, a new initiative to recruit talent in partnership with United Nations Volunteers (UNV). We aim at empowering young people, including youth with disabilities, to become agents of change and champion children’s rights.
The Youth Advocates
After the success of the first initiative in 2018 – 2019, which mobilized 42 Youth Advocates (18-24 years old) in 27 countries, UNICEF, in partnership with UNV, is now looking for the second cohort. We are searching for 20 young, passionate, and skilled advocates to join us and become agents of change advocating for the protection of children’s rights.
The Youth Advocates Programme offers young people the chance to gain one-year professional experience through a National UN Volunteer (UNV) assignment with UNICEF, while also imparting their valuable insights into the organization’s work for children and young people.
The recruited Youth Advocates will have access to learning and professional development opportunities, including a suite of online learning programmes.
Young professionals with disabilities and from under-represented groups are especially encouraged to apply.
If you are 18-35 years of age and passionate about children´s rights, check out the assignment opportunities listed below.
