About the Company:

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) is mandated by the UN general assembly to advocate for the protection of children’s rights, to help meet their basic needs and expand their opportunities to reach their full potential.

Context

Consequently, UNICEF Uganda is looking for two online volunteers who are fluent in English to help with editing, proofreading, and formatting documents and presentations. The volunteers will also help update the Uganda Country office’s electronic content management system (SharePoint) to ensure the relevance of our content and that it reflects our ongoing programmes and initiatives.

Online volunteers will receive feedback on their collaboration and quality of work and a certificate of appreciation upon successful completion of their assignment. They will also be given credit for support where applicable.
