Mission and objectives
The United Nations (UN) is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the mission and work of the United Nations are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter. On September 21, 1971, the Royal Government of Bhutan became the 128th member of the United Nations. The Office of the United Nations in Bhutan was established in early 1974. Since then, the country has been home to many UN agencies, funds and programmes that together support the Government in delivering national development needs and improving the socio-economic conditions of the people of Bhutan. The United Nations Resident Coordinator Office supports the work of the UN Resident Coordinator. The UN Resident Coordinator leads the UN country team in consultations with the Government to define and agree on the UN strategic response to the Government’s development priorities. This response is captured in the UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) or United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF).
Context
The RCO is committed to promoting sustainable development and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on a global scale. One of the key aspects of the RCO’s work is to monitor and report on the progress made by individual agencies towards achieving these goals. For this purpose, the RCO is seeking the support of a talented Online Volunteer with professional expertise in graphic design to design the United Nations Annual Country Results Report. The Report serves as a comprehensive overview of the progress, challenges, and achievements of Bhutan in relation to the SDGs. It is a vital communication tool that provides stakeholders, including government officials, policymakers, civil society organizations, and the general public, with valuable insights into the country’s development efforts.
