Open vacancy announcements for consultants

The Statistics Division of the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNSD) is responsible for integrating official statistics from multiple international agencies and national statistical systems. In response to the Secretary General’s “Data Strategy for Action by Everyone, Everywhere”, UNSD is leading the modernization of its UNdata platform, which aims to provide a single entry-point for official data and statistics from across the UN System. As part of this initiative, UNSD is focusing on the creation of a UNdata knowledge graph and tools to help users find, access, visualize, and explore data from across the UN System in an integrated manner, including data on Global SDG Indicators.

In this context, UNSD, via the United Nations Foundation (UNF), is looking to hire several consultants to join the team responsible for creating and launching a resource to publicly monitor progress toward the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) across the globe.
