UNICEF
UNICEF works in some of the world's toughest places, to reach the world's most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
And we never give up.
For every child, hope
The Division of Data, Analytics, Planning and Monitoring (DAPM) was established in 2019 to drive decision making and organizational learning, improve effectiveness and achievement of results of UNICEF and its partners to realize the rights and improve the life of every child. DAPM promotes the use of data and monitoring to achieve transformative impact on lives of children.
The Division is responsible for driving, shaping and guiding UNICEF's evidence-informed analysis, strategic planning, programme monitoring and organizational performance management. As such, DAPM enables the organization to deliver on results in a more coherent manner, based on agile and contextualized programming process, and on data, evidence, and analysis, as well as the application of human-rights based and results-based management approaches.
The intern will be working in the Strategic Planning and Corporate Analysis (SPCA) Unit, within the Programme Effectiveness Team (PET). PET is responsible for driving agile, efficient, and informed analysis and decision-making across all levels of the organization to ensure the most effective programming in diverse contexts. The team's objectives include promoting coherence between corporate strategic and programme planning, transforming programme monitoring, partnership, and risk management, and enhancing organizational performance standards. PET also focuses on streamlining systems and processes for better results measurement and accountability, optimizing business systems and reporting, and leveraging knowledge and learning to improve programme effectiveness.
The Strategic Planning and Corporate Analysis Unit leads the process for UNICEF's Strategic Plan development, monitoring, reporting and analysis of performance, including analysis of the cross-cutting strategies, alignment of resources to results, as well as the quality assurance of and performance of HQ Divisions and Offices and Regional Offices, based around their respective Office Management Plans and Annual Reports.
Purpose and objectives
In UNICEF's broadest sense, data visualization refers to the visual representation of data to communicate information clearly and efficiently to people. Effective visualization helps users understand and analyze the evidence presented, allowing us to spot patterns, trends, and correlations that otherwise might have gone unnoticed in traditional tables, spreadsheets, or datasets.
The overall purpose of this internship is to support the SPCA unit in data visualization, graphic design, presentation development, and business intelligence tools. The intern will contribute by creating, updating, and enhancing visual solutions that effectively communicate complex data, ideas and timelines. They will collaborate across different D&A Units to ensure that presentations and dashboards are both accurate and visually engaging, helping the organization make data-driven decisions and meet strategic objectives. This internship provides an opportunity for the intern to apply their existing skills in a real-world setting while contributing to key projects.
