Sustainable management of water resources in accordance with the principle of integrated water management is the priority for Moldova. For further development of water policy and improvement of regulatory framework the Ministry of Environment (MoE) with the support of its subordinate institutions is responsible for ensuring ongoing dialogue with neighboring countries on the integrated management of transboundary water resources with the ultimate goal to ensure amount and quality and quantity of waters needed for both sustainable socio-economic development and healthy environment. In the process of improvement of national regulatory framework harmonization of environmental legislation with the provisions of European Union (EU) directives national environmental protection system faces many constraints particularly related to outdated standards normative acts capacity of responsible institutions shortage of qualified staff in the government sectoral institutes etc. The importance of integrated management of the Dniester River is indisputable for the Republic of Moldova. It is the largest river in the Republic of Moldova covering 70% of the country's water consumption needs thus being considered a strategic surface water resource for both environmental and socio-economic security of the country. For the joint Moldovan-Ukrainian management of the Dniester River a topic of major importance for Moldova is the impact of the operation of the Dniester Hydropower Complex (HPC) on the Moldova’s territory. In the frameworks of project Study of social and environmental impact assessment of the Dniester Hydropower Complex funded by Swedish Embassy and implemented by UNDP in 2018-2021 there was clearly shown its negative impact on the environment downstream.

The Strategic Action Program (SAP) is one of the key strategic documents of the Commission on Sustainable Use and Protection of the Dniester River Basin. It is based on the findings of the Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) for the Dniester River Basin. Both documents have been developed according to the methodology agreed by the two countries and have been extensively consulted. The documents contribute to the Dniester River basin management planning at the national level as well as support implementation of international commitments to develop joint plans for the transboundary basins. On March 31 2021 there was signed a Joint Statement on the approval of the Strategic Action Program for the Dniester River Basin for 2021 between the Ministry of Agriculture Regional Development and Environment of the Republic of Moldova and the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources of Ukraine.

Internship – Supply Chain Food Systems & Country Capacity Strengthening Supply Chain Operations Division (SCO) Rome Italy The World Food Programme (WFP) is the leading humanitarian organization saving lives and changing lives delivering food assistance in emergencies and working with communities to improve nutrition and build resilience. We are currently seeking to fill an intern position in the Supply Chain Food Systems & Country Capacity Strengthening team in the Strategic Engagement Unit (SCOE) of the Supply Chain Operations Division (SCO). This position is based in Rome Italy. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DIVISION/GENERAL INFORMATION The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) as the world’s largest humanitarian agency is well known for its ability to deliver food assistance rapidly to people in need. Historically WFP has implemented this assistance directly. In some country contexts this ‘doing for’ approach (through capacity substitution or capacity augmentation) continues to remain relevant. Increasingly however many national governments/partners are aware that strong and sustained national capacities are critical to addressing the multiple causes of hunger and are striving for self- sufficiency in delivering assistance to their population. Here WFP’s ‘value-added’ is in the ‘enabling of’ governments through capacity strengthening leveraging WFP’s extensive global operational and technical experience in food and other supply chain systems to strengthen national level supply chain systems. WFP’s framework for capacity strengthening recognises that without supportive laws policies strategies and procedures (enabling environment) well-functioning organizations (organizational domain) and educated skilled people (individual domain) state and non-state duty bearers cannot effectively plan implement and review their efforts to deliver intended products and services to their target groups. Effective capacity strengthening must therefore address all three domains recognising the interdependencies between them. Applying this holistic and systems-strengthening approach to its interventions WFP supports stakeholder capacities along five critical pathways: (i) Policies and legislation; (ii) Institutional effectiveness and accountability; (iii) Strategic planning and financing; (iv) Stakeholder programme design delivery and M&E; and (v) Engagement and participation of communities civil society and private sector. WFP’s Supply Chain capacity strengthening efforts notionally span ten areas of engagement (National safety net implementation (SC aspects); Increased access availability and distribution of safe nutritious diverse and more economically viable commodities; Small-holder farmer access to markets; Value chains analysis (SC perspective); Food safety and quality assurance systems; National production capacity of fortified and nutritious foods; and Private-sector supply chains for availability of essential commodities; National emergency preparedness and response (SC perspective); National logistics clusters/working groups; and Improved health supply chain systems). * Title of Post: Internship * Supervisor: Head and Deputy Head of Food Systems & CCS Team * Unit: SCOE Strategic Engagement Unit * Country: Italy * Duty Station: Rome * Duration of internship: 6 months * Expected Start Date: October 2023 DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES * Conduct desk research in support of longer-term supply chain projects and provide summaries and/or analysis; * Assist with information management activities; * Support the WFP Supply Chain Country Capacity knowledge management platform; * Assist with the preparation of documents including presentation material and briefing packs in support of SCOE activities and field operations; * Support in preparation and development of material as part of training programmes and deployments; * Take and keep notes and meeting minutes as needed; and perform other duties as required. QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE * Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate programme from a recognized university OR recently graduated from an undergraduate or graduate programme (within six months prior to the application to the internship programme) from a recognized university; * University course attendance in the past 12 months.

3,706,746,504 | Overview The Clinton Health Access Initiative Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to our mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We work at the invitation of governments to support them and the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems. CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life-saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Over the following two decades CHAI has expanded its focus. Today along with HIV we work in conjunction with our partners to prevent and treat infectious diseases such as COVID-19 malaria tuberculosis and hepatitis. Our work has also expanded into cancer diabetes hypertension and other non-communicable diseases and we work to accelerate the rollout of lifesaving vaccines reduce maternal and child mortality combat chronic malnutrition and increase access to assistive technology. We are investing in horizontal approaches to strengthen health systems through programs in human resources for health digital health and health financing. With each new and innovative program our strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale ensuring that governments lead the solutions that programs are designed to scale nationally and learnings are shared globally.

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse any kind of harassment including sexual harassment and discrimination. All selected candidates will therefore undergo rigorous reference and background checks. Violent conflicts in many countries of the world and particularly in Africa have continued to increase both in complexities and numbers. The violence which is mostly due to lack of good governance political wrangling inequality citizens’ agitation for quality of life and inability to access essential services of life has permeated socio-economic political aspects of the country. It has resulted in political instability wanton destruction of lives and property mass displacement of the civil population and destruction of key development infrastructures. Often citizens ventilate their displeasures through violent extremism radicalization and violent mass protests. Lack of good governance and political instability often result in weakened economy with attendant inability of the government to provide basic services and good welfare for the citizens. Low access to education inadequate basic healthcare services lack of essential infrastructure critical to the citizens’ well-being and progress and high unemployment have often pushed many people to engage in criminal acts that exacerbate insecurity both to citizens and the economy. Such illicit acts include kidnappings cattle rustlings armed robbery maritime crimes and piracy especially in the Gulf of Guinea (GoG). Piracy and maritime crimes in GoG especially in Nigeria waters have been remarkable causing damages to government and private investments as well as hampering the international trades and businesses. The rate of piracy and criminalities in GoG has been increasing over the years and the worst globally. In 2020 it was reported that 27 of the world’s 28 recorded kidnapping at sea incidents occurred in GoG. The report indicated that 623 seafarers were exposed to kidnapping in GoG region as compared to 8 seafarers that suffered a similar threat elsewhere within the period. The frequency of the attacks and violence is taking tolls on the operational capacities of the navies and the general economic well-being of the countries as well as the coastal communities of the region. Piracy in GoG discourages foreign investments weakens state control of coastal and offshore areas slows development of blue economy and emboldens illicit trades and illegal fishing. Piracy equally terrorizes the seafarer communities. The activities of the pirates remain a serious threat to trades and businesses of the coastal communities; retard the economies of the GoG countries particularly Nigeria; and hamper international trades and businesses along the corridor. Despite the strengthening of Nigeria’s military and its persistent impressive performance in international assignments including global peace support missions (PSOs) it has been unable to convert and arrest the growing tendencies of illicit maritime crimes in GoG. Such maritime crimes include piracy armed robbery kidnappings and violent attacks on ships and crews. This makes GoG the most dangerous waters for seafarers.

FAO has partnered with the Government of Pakistan on research and development training extension services and strengthening of the staff capacity in planning and policy-making. FAO Pakistan under the Green Climate Fund is implementing a project called Transforming Indus Basin with Climate Resilient Agriculture and Water Management in Punjab and Sindh Provinces. The project aims to develop the country’s capacity to get and use the information it needs to cope with the impacts of climate change on agriculture and water management. The overall goal of the projects is to enhance the capacity of agricultural and pastoral sectors to cope with climate change by up scaling farmers’ adoption of climate change adaptation technologies and practices through a network of already established Farmers Field Schools and by mainstreaming climate change adaptation concerns and strategies into on-going agricultural development initiatives policies and programming. Modelling of climate change scenarios for Pakistan shows that if agriculture and water management in the Indus River Basin continue along a ‘business as usual’ pathway increasing temperatures and changes in precipitation will pose severe threats to the future livelihoods of farmers and the Pakistani agricultural sector. In response to this challenge aforementioned project will help shift Pakistan and Indus Basin agriculture from its current situation of high vulnerability toward an alternative paradigm wherein better information and farming practices will significantly increase resilience to climate change.

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 UNICEF Ukraine Робота в ЮНІСЕФ – це нові можливості! - YouTube The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child everywhere in everything the organization does — in programs in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive develop and reach their full potential without discrimination bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social political economic civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children which is the universal mandate of UNICEF as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child while also supporting the equitable development of nations.
