UN Matters

A key strand of UNYSA's work is to strengthen teaching about the UN. In December 2009, UNA-UK teamed up with the UK National Commission for UNESCO to develop a teaching pack on the United Nations.

Under the leadership of UNYSA's Model UN and Education Officers, UNYSA members are encouraged to make use of the pack in their outreach to schools.

It’s fair to say that the UN is not the easiest place to find a job, and finding accurate information on how to do so can be just as tricky.

To help you with your search – be it for permanent employment, employment as a consultant, internships or volunteering, the Young Professionals Network has produced a guide to try to answer as many of your questions as possible
