Who can apply

Ugandan citizens are eligible because UNICEF explicitly welcomes qualified candidates regardless of nationality. Applicants must hold a Master\'s degree in Social Sciences, Gender Studies, International Relations or Affairs, Public Policy or Communications and have at least ten years of progressively responsible professional experience.

About this opportunity

The consultant supports UNICEF\'s Gender Equality Section in producing major institutional and interagency reports on gender equality. The assignment includes compiling evidence and drafting products for the UN System-Wide Action Plan, UNICEF Gender Equality Action Plan reporting and the Global Annual Results Report.

Benefits
The assignment is a paid eight-and-a-half-month consultancy delivered remotely with no travel. UNICEF does not publish a fixed consultancy fee; applicants must submit a separate financial proposal using UNICEF\'s prescribed template.

Requirements
Applicants must demonstrate excellent professional writing skills and specific experience producing reports on gender issues, including gender and health or education. Experience in a UN, international agency or comparable international institution is required, along with strong Microsoft Office and SharePoint capability and full English fluency. French or Spanish is an asset.

How to apply
Complete or update the UNICEF Talent Management System profile, upload a CV and cover letter and attach the separate financial proposal using the official template. Submit the application by 2026-09-13.

Find scholarships, postgraduate study and internships

Explore opportunities from Uganda and abroad. Location describes where an opportunity is based; check the official eligibility rules to confirm whether Ugandan, African or other international applicants can apply.

Fully funded scholarships in Canada, the USA and Europe

Compare undergraduate, master's and PhD awards by eligible nationality, subject and funding coverage. A tuition waiver does not necessarily cover living costs, insurance or travel. For medical study, confirm the exact degree and whether clinical training is included. High school awards have different age and admission requirements from university scholarships.

For US universities offering full scholarships, check the university's international admissions and financial aid pages. Confirm whether admission and funding require separate applications, and whether support is renewable each year.

Paid internships abroad and online internships

For internships in Europe or elsewhere, check nationality and enrolment requirements, the stipend, accommodation and travel coverage. Paid does not necessarily mean fully funded. Remote internships may still restrict the countries where participants can work. To intern abroad without programme fees, compare direct employer applications and check which costs you must pay yourself.

For summer placements, verify the start date and application year in the official call. Search the listings for a provider or subject, such as Expedia, EU delegation traineeships or agriculture in Germany, and confirm availability with that organisation.

NGO jobs, entry-level jobs and internships in Uganda

Check the posting date, closing date, duty station and required experience. For jobs with no experience, look for an explicit entry-level or graduate requirement; an urgent vacancy may still require experience. Verify American Embassy vacancies through the embassy's official recruitment service and New Vision vacancies against the original employer notice.

Application years and named scholarship programmes

Use the intake and deadline in each listing when comparing 2026 and 2027 opportunities. A 2022 notice is historical unless the provider has published a new call. Before applying to Yale Young African Scholars or an opportunity described as a UNICEF scholarship, verify the programme name, funding and current eligibility directly with the organisation. A search phrase alone does not confirm an available award.
