Description

–>

UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every  childbirth is safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled. UNFPA’s strategic plan (2022- 2025), reaffirms the relevance of the current strategic direction of UNFPA and focuses on three  transformative results: to end preventable maternal deaths; end unmet need for family planning;  and end gender-based violence and harmful practices. These results capture our strategic  commitments on accelerating progress towards realizing the ICPD and SDGs in the Decade of  Action leading up to 2030. Our strategic plan calls upon UN Member States, organizations and  individuals to “build forward better”, while addressing the negative impacts of the Covid-19  pandemic on women’s and girls’ access to sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights,  recover lost gains and realize our goals. 

In the Philippines, UNFPA has started developing its new five-year 9th Country Programme 2024- 2028. The 9th CP is tightly aligned with the mid- and long-term development goals of the  Philippines and Ambisyon Natin 2040, as well as the global Agenda 2030 including the Sustainable  Development Goals (SDGs). In a world where fundamental human rights are at risk, we need principled and ethical staff, who  embody these international norms and standards, and who will defend them courageously and  with full conviction. 

UNFPA is seeking candidates that transform, inspire and deliver high impact and sustained results;  we need staff who are transparent, exceptional in how they manage the resources entrusted to  them and who commit to deliver excellence in programme results.
