Lowongan Kerja 2024 : Writer and Media Engagement Officer

Company: United Nations

Job description: Details:Mission and objectives:UNDP believes that the people of Indonesia should have ownership over the programmes and projects we support. All UNDP programmes therefore actively promote the spirit of mutual respect, support and accountability and subscribe to the principle of national ownership as enshrined in the Jakarta Commitment – a declaration put forward by the government and its development partners in 2009 to strengthen aid effectiveness in Indonesia. In the true spirit of national ownership, all of UNDP’s assistance in Indonesia is implemented by national entities, including line ministries and the Ministry of National Planning and Development, and at the subnational level by line departments, provincial and district authorities as well as community groups.While each programme supported by UNDP has specific and varied objectives, capacity development is one aim that all UNDP programmes – in Indonesia and worldwide – have in common. This takes on many forms including institutional reform, leadership development, education, and training for members of the public such as journalists, and women’s communities. In line with this logic, UNDP advisers work side by side with Indonesian counterparts to strengthen capacities in technical matters, policy formulation and budget planning, amongst others.Context:The Climate Promise Project aims to leverage Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to achieve net-zero emissions and climate-resilient development in response to the climate emergency by advancing Indonesia’s NDC targets within the energy sector. This involves facilitating the development of net-zero pathways for private companies, formulating policy recommendations to augment energy sector targets, and assisting the Indonesia Environment Fund (IEF) to support the implementation of domestic carbon credits. By the project’s conclusion, it anticipates the completion of 50 mitigation studies by companies committed to net-zero emissions, training 200 government officers and 150 non-party stakeholders to reassess energy policies, validating 70 mitigation actions for carbon certification. The project primarily collaborates with private sector entities to adopt net-zero emission targets, catalysing national net-zero ambitions.The Climate Promise in Energy Sector Project is seeking a dynamic and skilled Writer and Media Engagement Officer to support the project’s closure and ensure sustainability as part of the exit strategy. This role is important in effectively communicating the project’s achievements, lessons learned, and future potential to a broad audience, including government counterpart, stakeholders, partners, and the public.Task description:Under the direct supervision of the National Project Coordinator of Climate Promise, the UN Volunteer will undertake the following tasks:1.
