UNDP - Graphic design intern

The UN SDG Action Campaign’s work is structured around three main pillars:

• Engagement Support: The UN SDG Action Campaign believes in the importance of meaningful civic participation to policy making and processes related to the SDGs at all levels to ensure a more inclusive multilateral system and greater accountability. This is why the Campaign convenes strategy meetings and consultations with civil society organizations, youth, and other stakeholders and facilitates their engagement in UN-led events and SDG processes to strengthen representation in global decision-making. 
• Advocacy and Communications Support: Creativity, communication, and co-creation have the power to shape narratives, mobilize communities, and drive meaningful change. The UN SDG Action Campaign harnesses these forces through creative, open-source campaigns, impactful exhibitions, and strategic communications to inspire hope and action towards inclusive, peaceful and sustainable future. 
• The Heroes of Tomorrow: UN SDG Action Awards: This signature programme of the UN SDG Action Campaign champions initiatives and committed that use creativity and innovation to drive transformative change. Through the Awards programme, the Campaign is committed to showcasing the heroes of tomorrow while sending a message of hope and possibilities. 

In an increasingly interconnected world, the future we are shaping is a collective one. The UN SDG Action Campaign centers its efforts on advancing economic justice and solidarity, promoting gender equality and inclusion, and driving climate action and sustainable food systems.
