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.

Political instability and conflict have caused social deterioration and a humanitarian crisis in Libya. Despite the deep political divisions in Libya, UNDP, in partnership with communities, local authorities, government representatives and various organizations have made progress stabilizing conflict-affected areas, which has improved the lives of vulnerable populations. UNDP is committed to supporting Libya’s transition to an inclusive political agreement, accountable governance, stabilization, economic recovery and resilience. In addressing the humanitarian and development challenges that have arisen due to the crises, UNDP Libya is expanding its interventions in Libya.

UNDP Libya’s new SUSC (Stability, Unity, Social Cohesion) initiative aims to promote a coherent approach in order to boost local stability, national unity and social cohesion. The project aims to streamline and coordinate UNDP’s efforts through three existing complementary projects (Stabilization Facility for Libya, National Reconciliation and Local Elections) while introducing a new project on Prevention of Violent Extremism into communities where it is most needed. This effort is especially important as all UNDP’s projects can jointly strengthen and leverage their efforts and create impact in a harmonized, complementary manner.

This new phase of UNDP’s work will strive to centre creation of peace dividends strengthening social cohesion and national unity as overall objectives in any initiatives undertaken jointly by the four related projects. By connecting and streamlining different projects in an area-based approach, encouraging increased civic engagement and ownership, and substantively including a wide variety of stakeholders, UNDP will ensure to amplify the impact of its initiatives and its sustainability. Any tangible support provided to communities will be justified by its contribution to the overall objectives and prioritized based on community-endorsed needs where applicable.
