Mission and objectivesUNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories to save children’s lives, defend their rights, and help them fulfil their potential, from early childhood through adolescence. At UNICEF, we are committed, passionate, and proud of what we do. Promoting the rights of every child is not just a job – it is a calling. UNICEF is a place where careers are built we offer our staff diverse opportunities for personal and professional development that will help them develop a fulfilling career while delivering on a rewarding mission. We pride ourselves on a culture that helps staff thrive, coupled with an attractive compensation and benefits package. Visit our website (https://www.unicef.org/) to learn more about what we do at UNICEF. At the core of UNICEF’s universal mandate is our commitment to protect and uphold the rights enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) for all children – without discrimination and without leaving any child behind. The rights enshrined in the CRC apply equally to all children in a country, including children who are non-nationals or stateless, refugee and international migrant children. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education, social protection, and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged residents — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfil their potential, but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. A dedicated focus on children on the move is critical to meet the SDGs commitment to leave no one behind. UNICEF’s Strategic Plan (2022-2025) reflects children on the move across Goal Areas and as an important cross-cutting priority, supporting global commitments such as the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and Global Compact on Refugees. The Strategic Plan commits UNICEF to a renewed focus on inclusion of children on the move into education, child protection and social protection systems to tackle root causes for forced displacement or unsafe migration, discrimination and exclusion. The Youth on the Move UNV programme was designed by UNICEF in collaboration with UNV to provide refugee, displaced and migrant youth between the ages of 20-32, who face learning to earning barriers, with a paid 12-months volunteer opportunity. Eligibility criteria include: • Young people aged 20-32 • Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and migrants • In their motivation statement, applicants can demonstrate they face learning to earning barriers • Female candidates are strongly encouraged to apply • Hosting offices are encouraged to ensure application processes are accessible to youth on the move with disabilities

Living conditions and remarksWorking at UNICEF in Dar es Salaam, the largest city in Tanzania, offers a dynamic environment with a blend of modern infrastructure and traditional culture. The city has a growing expat community, good access to healthcare, and international schools, making it relatively comfortable for those moving for work. However, like many rapidly urbanizing areas, Dar es Salaam faces challenges such as traffic congestion. The cost of living can vary, with affordable options available alongside higher-end accommodations. Despite these challenges, the city’s coastal location provides a vibrant lifestyle with access to beaches, cultural events, and a rich history, making it an exciting place to live and work
