Genf, Genf, Schweiz United Nations Vollzeit

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.


The Disasters and Conflicts Branch (D&CB) provides cutting-edge environmental science and expertise to countries affected by or vulnerable to conflicts and disasters.

D&CB has responded to crisis situations in more than 40 countries since 1999, delivering high-quality environmental expertise to national governments and partners in the UN family.

Field-based assessments of the environmental impacts of crises on human health, livelihoods and security form the core of UNEP's conflict and disaster management operations.


However, as the international community has shifted its focus from post-crisis intervention to crisis prevention, the Branch has also expanded its operational range, adding disaster risk reduction and environmental cooperation for peacebuilding to its core services of post-crisis environmental assessment and recovery.

This post is located in the Geneva duty station.
