Conduct data mapping and classification on the ECOSOC Website

Contract

This is a UNV contract. More about UNV contracts.

For more than 20 years, UNV has supported UN partners, governments, and civil society organizations (CSOs) through its Online Volunteering (OV) service. The service is provided free of charge to all eligible organizations and allows them to connect with volunteers from around the world to team up and tackle sustainable human development challenges. To ensure collaborations enabled through the OV service stay within the universal reach and neutrality of the United Nations, UNV requires non-UN entities to have undergone a due diligence clearance by either the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) or UN country teams (see our eligibility criteria for organizations under: https://explore.unv.org/ov-eligibility). To allow more CSOs to register on our platform and benefit from the OV service and overall offer, we would like to engage Online Volunteers to map and classify all the CSO registered in the ECOSOC website in our region.

We are looking for 24 online volunteers to support the UNV Regional Office of West and Central Africa in identifying and classifying Civil Society Organization (CSO) registered on the ECOSOC page within the region. This is going to be a mapping exercise. Each online volunteer will oversee a country in the region. Online Volunteers will conduct the mapping of the assigned country and are expected to fill in necessary information in an Excel document including the information on the CSO (country, area of intervention, contact). The website to be use in the ECOSOC website with specifics filters to be communicated to the selected online volunteers
