The Position

Under overall guidance of the UNFPA Representative, and direct supervision by the Deputy Representative, the Assistant Representative provides support to ensure programme quality, efficiency and effectiveness of UNFPA’s support to the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania within the context of the United Nations Development Assistance Plan II (UNDAP II).

How you can make a difference

UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled.  UNFPA’s strategic plan (2018-2021) focuses on three transformative results: to end preventable maternal deaths; end the unmet need for family planning; and end gender-based violence and all harmful practices.
