United Nations Careers United Nations Careers Who we are? The issues on our agenda are manifold and diverse as are the careers we offer. Qui sommes-nous?

The world looks to the United Nations for solutions to complex problems everywhere; from ending conflict and alleviating poverty, to combating climate change and defending human rights. Among our ranks you will find staff members who monitor elections, disarm child soldiers, coordinate relief in humanitarian crises and provide administrative as well as logistical support to carry out our complex m

andates. These are just a few examples amongst our many other equally critical and necessary functions. The wide array of jobs means that you may change functions, departments, geographic locations, and even organizations or fields of work throughout your career in the Organization. The diversity of our people, almost 40,000 staff from our 193 Member States, means that you will find yourself working in multi-cultural teams with people from all backgrounds and cultures who have wide perspectives, experiences, expectations as well as approaches. Le monde attend de l’ONU des solutions aux problèmes épineux qui se posent partout, depuis le règlement des conflits et la réduction de la pauvreté jusqu’à la lutte contre le changement climatique et à la défense des droits de l’homme. Les questions inscrites à notre programme sont multiples et diverses, tout comme les carrières que nous proposons. Vous trouverez parmi nous des fonctionnaires qui surveillent les élections, s’occupent du désarmement des enfants soldats, coordonnent les secours pendant les crises humanitaires et fournissent un appui administratif et logistique pour nous permettre d’exécuter nos mandats complexes. Ce ne sont là que quelques exemples parmi beaucoup d’autres de nos fonctions essentielles et indispensables. Cette gamme très étendue d’emplois et de mandats signifie que vous pouvez changer de fonctions, de département, d’affectation géographique, voire de domaine d’activité, pendant toute la durée de votre carrière à l’Organisation. S’il est vrai que ces changements nécessitent des connaissances, du temps et des efforts, ils permettent aussi d’acquérir une précieuse expérience, une plus grande largeur de vues et un travail stimulant. En raison de la diversité des personnes que nous employons, soit près de 40 000 venues des 193 Etats Membres de l’Organisation, vous travaillerez dans des équipes multiculturelles composées de personnes appartenant à toutes couches de la société et à toutes les cultures, ayant une panoplie large et variée de perspectives, de parcours, d’attentes et d’approches.
