Nairobi, Nairobi Area, Kenya United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Full time

UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person's potential is fulfilled.

UNFPA expands the possibilities for women and young people to lead healthy and productive lives

The Position:

The position of Humanitarian Evaluation Specialist is Home based until the Evaluation Office is relocated to Nairobi, Kenya and reports to the Humanitarian Evaluation Adviser in the Evaluation Office.

The incumbent will assist the Humanitarian Evaluation Adviser in strengthening the UNFPA humanitarian evaluation function.

This position will require the establishment of strong and effective working relations with other divisions and levels of the organization and with other UN agencies.


How you can make a difference:

UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person's potential is fulfilled.

UNFPA's strategic plan , reaffirms the relevance of the current strategic direction of UNFPA and focuses on three transformative results:
to end preventable maternal deaths; end unmet need for family planning; and end gender-based violence and harmful practices.

These results capture our strategic commitments on accelerating progress towards realizing the ICPD and SDGs in the Decade of Action leading up to 2030.

Our strategic plan calls upon UN Member States, organizations and individuals to "build forward better", while addressing the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on women's and girls' access to sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights, recover lost gains and realize our goals.

In a world where fundamental human rights are at risk, we need principled and ethical staff, who embody these international norms and standards, and who will defend them courageously and with full conviction.

UNFPA is seeking candidates that transform, inspire and deliver high impact and sustained results; we need staff who are transparent, exceptional in how they manage the resources entrusted to them and who commit to deliver excellence in programme results.

Under the supervision of the Humanitarian Evaluation Adviser, the Humanitarian Evaluation Specialist will contribute to the development of the humanitarian evaluation function at UNFPA.
