Background

In line with UNICEF’s global People Strategy and the Nigeria Country Office’s (NCO) staff wellbeing and development priorities, the People & Culture Section continues to implement initiatives that build workforce resilience, strengthen career readiness, and prepare colleagues for post-UNICEF transitions.

  • These initiatives directly contribute to UNICEF’s organizational goal of fostering a supportive and future-ready workplace culture where staff are equipped to navigate both professional and personal transitions confidently.

  • Each session will be supported by appropriate materials, such as a participant workbook, slides, and case-based exercises.
  • To qualify as an advocate for every child you will have.
