Urbanization is a defining trend of our times. More than half of humanity (55 per cent) currently lives in urban areas – a figure that will edge close to 70 per cent by the middle of the century. For children, urbanization poses among the greatest risks and opportunities to realizing their rights, and having a fair chance at life.
UNICEF has recognized urbanization as an area of evolving importance for the organization and developed a global urban strategy to guide and scale up the organization’s work in urban areas at the global, national and local levels.
One aspect of the strategy is to improve and expand knowledge exchange of good practices and lessons learned, as well as tools that will facilitate this work. An important element of this knowledge exchange is revamping and updating the Child Friendly Cities website, the information hub for the Child Friendly Cities Initiative (CFCI) and the information therein. This includes developing a portfolio of 10 good practice case studies of initiatives in urban areas for the website.
Under the guidance of the Chief, Sustainability and Policy Action Unit and the urban team at the Division of Data, Research and Policy in UNICEF, the intern will develop a portfolio of 10 good practice case studies of initiatives in urban areas for the CFCI website. Approximately 1000 words each.
