Applicants are kindly requested to plan their availability during this period accordingly in case they are short-listed. Selected candidates will be expected to report for duty approximately two to three months after receiving an offer of employment at the latest. This selection exercise may be used to generate a reserve list of suitable candidates that may be used to address Organization's similar staffing needs in the future. INTERPOL is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes the applications of all qualified candidates who are nationals of INTERPOL Member Countries irrespective of their racial or ethnic origin opinions or beliefs gender sexual orientation and disabilities. INTERPOL places no restrictions on the eligibility of candidates without distinction as to race or ethnic origin religion opinions gender sexual orientation or disabilities. However the national policy and laws in force in INTERPOL host countries may mean that staff members’ spouses or partners while legally recognized by the Organization are not given the same recognition when they reside in certain duty stations. When this is the case the Organization will inform the candidates accordingly to ensure that they are aware of the situation and allow them to make an informed decision. Candidates are also encouraged to familiarize themselves with specific laws and policies that may impact their personal and family situation in the duty station to which they apply. CONFIDENTIALITY REGIME In application of Article 114.1 of INTERPOL’s Rules on the Processing of Data (RPD) the General Secretariat is “responsible for determining authorization procedures or a system of security clearance at each data confidentiality level”. Member states which are not able or willing to assist INTERPOL in performing such a check should be aware that some INTERPOL information might not be made available to their nationals working at INTERPOL. In order to be able to access police information classified as “INTERPOL For official use only” or “INTERPOL RESTRICTED” the individual has to obtain “INTERPOL Restricted” security clearance. This clearance is granted after Basic security screening. In order to be able to access police information classified as “INTERPOL CONFIDENTIAL” the individual has to obtain “INTERPOL Confidential” security clearance. This clearance is granted after Enhanced security screening. Under no circumstances should clearance be granted simply because of an official’s rank post held or length of service. Staff may only gain access to General Secretariat premises and to police information if the appropriate INTERPOL security clearance has been obtained. In order to reduce the contract timeline and as the Enhanced security screening may take some time the Official requiring INTERPOL Confidential security clearance may be authorized to start the appointment if the NCB can confirm that the equivalent to Basic security screening has been performed. Access to INTERPOL CONFIDENTIAL information will not be authorized until Enhanced security screening is confirmed. Available documents * Vacancy Notice INT04172.pdf

Job Description BACKGROUND UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender nationality and culture. Individuals from minority groups indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence. 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. Since the December 2013 crisis the Republic of South Sudan continued to face a worsening spiral of humanitarian development economic and security crises of unprecedented proportions. The country is riveted by a mutually reinforcing conflict dynamic that involves several actors. Several drivers of conflict some new and others heightened by the conflict have emerged around poorly managed decentralization corruption marginalization ethnic rivalries and exclusionary politics and unaddressed local grievances that have fed localized militias in the country. The implementation of the Revitalized Agreement on the Resolution of Conflict in the Republic of South Sudan (R-ARCSS) made some progress. Following the formation of the Revitalized Transitional Government of National Unity (R-TGoNU) in February 2020 the formation of the reconstituted transitional legislature at national and state levels was completed in 2022. However overall progress in the implementation of the Agreement has been slow e.g. with regards to advancing the constitution-making and electoral process as well as the deployment of the Necessary Unified Forces. Due to these delays a Roadmap to a peaceful and democratic end to the transitional period of the R-ARCSS was adopted extending the transitional period to last from February 2022 to February 2025. The Transitional Government of National Unity has continued to prioritize reconciliation efforts e.g. through the National Dialogue which was concluded in November 2020. Furthermore the R-ARCSS has underscored the requirement to establish a Commission on Truth Reconciliation and Healing (CTRH) as a necessary mechanism to foster healing reconciliation and address transitional justice issues. The Council of Ministers endorsed the draft statute and memorandum of understanding of the Hybrid Court for South Sudan (HCSS) in December 2017. The process for public consultations for the establishment of the CTRH was launched in April 2022 and concluded in all 10 states in the following year. UNDP is in implementing its Country Programme Document (CPD 2022-2025) aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF 2023-2025). The programme seeks to address the complex development challenges facing the country – persistent conflict and fragility recurrent shocks and stresses and weak institutions and economic instability. The CPD focuses on three interlinked and mutually reinforcing pillars: (a) strengthened peace infrastructures and accountable governance; (b) inclusive risk-informed economic development; and (c) strengthened institutional and community resilience. Decades of conflict in South Sudan have led to widespread proliferation of weapons threatening community safety and limiting socioeconomic development. However the signing of the R-ARCSS in September 2018 and eventual formation of the Revitalized Transitional Government of National Unity (R-TGoNU) and the adoption of the roadmap renewed hopes of peace in the country. The principal objective of this programme is to contribute to eradicating poverty in all its forms and dimensions and keeping people out of poverty as well as to building resilience to crises and shocks to safeguard development gains. The immediate challenges facing the Country Office is implementation of the ambitious programme and contribution towards recovery and sustainable peace in a context of low human and institutional capacities embryonic institutions a transitional government high levels of poverty and low levels of human development.

As of September 2015 WHO recommends that people at substantial risk of HIV infection should be offered tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-based oral PrEP as an additional prevention choice as part of comprehensive prevention. Oral PrEP is highly effective at preventing HIV when used as directed. In 2017 a global coalition of United Nations Member States donors civil society organizations and implementers was established to support global efforts to accelerate HIV prevention. The overarching goal of the Global HIV Prevention Coalition is to strengthen and sustain political commitment for primary prevention by setting a common agenda among key policy-makers funders and programme implementers. In 2017 Mozambique joined the global prevention coalition that indicates PrEP as one of the pillars for reducing the number of new infections by 2025 and in the same year started its implementation through a pilot in Zambézia province. In 2019 it was expanded to the Nampula and Manica provinces and in July 2021 the PrEP Guideline was launched and the strategy expanded to the whole country. In 2021 WHO recommended that the dapivirine ring may be offered as an additional prevention choice for women at substantial risk of HIV and in 2022 that long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) may be offered as an additional prevention choice for people at substantial risk of HIV. After more than five years of phased implementation of PrEP in the country the Ministry of Health intends to conduct an evaluation to identify useful elements to make the initiative (PrEP offer) more effective and efficient considering different contexts of the country. * purpose and objectives: To Provide Technical Support To The National Program For STI HIV And AIDS Control Of Mozambique Ministry Of Health On The Mid-term Review Of PrEP Implementation Due To * To document the successful activities and approaches that strengthen the capacity of PrEP implementation (individual district provincial and central level); * Document lessons learned and propose adjustments that can support PrEP implementation if nedded; * Document existing gaps and challenges in the current implementation model (programmatic norms modality of delivery information flow data recording and reporting); * Assess the level of knowledge and compliance with PrEP service delivery standards; Analyze the future expectations of service providers in the implementation of PrEP in the country. * Methodology Technical Approach and Specific Tasks of the Consultant A quantitative and qualitative methodology will be used to assess PrEP implementation at all levels (central provincial district and health unit).

POST INFORMATION Title of the post: SECONDMENT - Operations Coordinator for Forestry Crime Reference of the post: INT04080 Directorate: Organized and Emerging Crimes Duty station: Lyon France Length and type of contract: 3 Year Secondment Grade: 4 Number of posts: 1 Security level: Basic Deadline for application:30 September 2023 INTERPOL is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes the applications of all qualified candidates who are nationals of INTERPOL member countries irrespective of their racial or ethnic origin opinions or beliefs gender sexual orientation and disabilities. INTERPOL places no restrictions on the eligibility of candidates without distinction as to race or ethnic origin religion opinions gender sexual orientation or disabilities. However the national policy and laws in force in INTERPOL host countries may mean that staff members’ spouses or partners while legally recognized by the Organization are not given the same recognition when they reside in certain duty stations. When this is the case the Organization will inform the candidates accordingly to ensure that they are aware of the situation and allow them to make an informed decision. CONFIDENTIALITY REGIME In application of Article 114.1 of INTERPOL’s Rules on the Processing of Data (RPD) the General Secretariat is “responsible for determining authorization procedures or a system of security clearance at each data confidentiality level”. Member states which are not able or willing to assist INTERPOL in performing such a check should be aware that some INTERPOL information might not be made available to their nationals working at INTERPOL. In order to be able to access police information classified as “INTERPOL For official use only” or “INTERPOL RESTRICTED” the individual has to obtain “INTERPOL Restricted” security clearance. This clearance is granted after Basic security screening. For seconded or other officials assigned to work or assist at the General Secretariat by a member country in lieu of Basic security screening the respective NCB shall attest that the equivalent of the INTERPOL Basic security screening has been satisfactorily completed. This means that the following verifications will not be performed by the General Secretariat but are considered to have been taken care of by the respective NCB. In order to be able to access police information classified as “INTERPOL CONFIDENTIAL” the individual has to obtain “INTERPOL Confidential” security clearance. This clearance is granted after Enhanced security screening. Under no circumstances should clearance be granted simply because of an official’s rank post held or length of service. Staff may only gain access to General Secretariat premises and to police information if the appropriate INTERPOL security clearance has been obtained. In order to reduce the secondment timeline and as the Enhanced security screening may take some time the seconded Official requiring INTERPOL Confidential security clearance may be authorized to start the secondment if the NCB can confirm that the equivalent to Basic security screening has been performed. Access to INTERPOL CONFIDENTIAL information will not be authorized until Enhanced security screening is confirmed.

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 a hero 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. * Facilitating the processing of contracts for consultants vendors and external partners that support the office in programme delivery.
