    The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system, and serves as an authoritative advocate for the global environment. Our mission is to provide leadership and encourage partnership in caring for the environment by inspiring, informing, and enabling nations and peoples to improve their quality of life without compromising that of future generations. Translation of content into languages is essential to promote UNEP's efforts towards sustainable development amongst the world's people in a clear voice. In the context of the COVID-19 response, it's even more critical to provide citizens and decision makers with good data and guidance. Therefore, the Volunteer's work will support to disclose practical legislative approaches towards an environmentally-sustainable economic recovery, with corresponding best practices at national and regional levels.
