Job Purpose and Organizational Context

Since its establishment in 2004, the Joint UNDP-DPPA Programme on Building National Capacities for Conflict Prevention (the Joint Programme or JP) has been engaged in bridging the gap between political engagement and development assistance in pursuit of sustainable peace. 

The Joint Programme started a new phase (2024-2028) in which it will continue to contribute to joint UN action to help national stakeholders enhance their capacities and structures for conflict prevention, primarily through the deployment of international and national Peace and Development Advisors (PDAs) to the offices of UN Resident Coordinators working in complex settings. Based in over 70 countries, PDAs provide analytical, advisory, and capacity-development assistance to national stakeholders to enhance capacities for dialogue, develop prevention policies and strategies, strengthen national infrastructures for peace and help foster the engagement of women and youth in these efforts. 

The Joint Programme is leading diverse initiatives to strengthen knowledge exchange and learning in the area of conflict prevention and sustaining peace, to better communicate results and impact, and to facilitate structured exchanges amongst a growing community of peace and development practitioners. Some of these initiatives include online platforms such as the Peace Infrastructures portal, which aims to provide resources and tools to support national, regional and global initiatives to establish and sustain peace infrastructures, enhance experience sharing, and cultivate new innovative approaches to conflict prevention.

  • Perform any other duties within their functional profile as deemed necessary for the efficient functioning of the team’s objectives and the Organization.
