Community & Communications Intern

United Nations Development Programme

<div><div>Background 
 
UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender, nationality, and culture. Individuals from minority groups, indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence.
UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks.
UNDP is the leading United Nations organization in fighting to end the injustice of poverty, inequality, and climate change. Working with our broad network of experts and partners in 170 countries, we help nations to build integrated, lasting solutions for people and planet. Learn more at undp.org or follow at @UNDP
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Country Office in the Kingdom of Bahrain operates within the context of a high-income, net-contributing country, where UNDP engagement is fully funded through government cost-sharing and aligned with national development priorities. Bahrain is implementing an ambitious national reform agenda under Bahrain Vision 2030 and the Government Programme (2023&ndash;2026), with a strong focus on economic diversification, fiscal sustainability, effective governance, environmental resilience, digital transformation, and inclusive human development. As a net contributor country, UNDP Bahrain maintains a lean operational footprint while delivering high-value technical assistance, policy advisory services, and innovation-driven solutions in support of national priorities.
UNDP Bahrain&rsquo;s programme is guided by the Country Programme Document (CPD) 2025&ndash;2029, approved by the UNDP Executive Board in January 2025, and is fully aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2025&ndash;2029. The CPD positions UNDP as a trusted strategic partner to the Government of Bahrain, contributing to UNSDCF outcomes through integrated, multi-sectoral interventions that address complex development challenges at the intersection of economic prosperity, governance and human rights, and environmental sustainability. Under the Country Programme Document (CPD) 2025&ndash;2029, UNDP Bahrain&rsquo;s engagement is structured around three interrelated CPD pillars:
 
(i) Economic prosperity and sustainable livelihoods;
 
(ii) Effective governance, human rights, and access to justice; and
 
(iii) Environmental sustainability and climate resilience.
These pillars reflect national priorities under Bahrain Vision 2030 and the Government Programme (2023&ndash;2026), and constitute UNDP&rsquo;s substantive contribution to the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2025&ndash;2029.
 
To ensure coherence, integration, and efficient delivery within a lean Country Office structure, the Bahrain CO operationalizes the three CPD pillars through two integrated programme clusters. The first cluster brings together economic transformation, sustainable livelihoods, and environmental sustainability, recognizing the strong interlinkages between economic diversification, green finance, climate action, digital transformation, and private sector&ndash;led growth. This cluster supports policy reform, institutional capacity development, and innovative financing mechanisms that advance inclusive and sustainable economic outcomes while strengthening environmental resilience.
 
The second cluster focuses on governance, human rights, access to justice, and social inclusion, encompassing rule of law, public sector effectiveness, civic engagement, gender equality, and protection of vulnerable groups. This cluster supports national institutions in strengthening accountability, service delivery, and compliance with international human rights standards, while promoting inclusive participation and social cohesion.
 
This two-cluster delivery model enables the Country Office to manage complexity, promote synergies across CPD pillars, and apply a portfolio approach to programme design, implementation, and partnerships. Staff are therefore expected to work across thematic boundaries, contribute to integrated solutions, and support joint programming within the UN system, while ensuring results-based management, quality assurance, and alignment with national and UNSDCF priorities.
Institutional Arrangement
Under the guidance and direct supervision of the Resident Representative (RR), the Executive Associate ensures effective and efficient functioning of the RR&rsquo;s office, full confidentiality in all aspects of assignments, maintenance of protocol procedures, and management of information flow and follow-up on deadlines and commitments made. The Executive Associate promotes a collaborative, client-focused, high quality and results-oriented approach in the operations of the RR&rsquo;s office.
The Executive Associate to the RR works in close collaboration with UNDP staff, UN Agencies, national authorities, international organizations, and other stakeholders and external entities to ensure efficient flow of information and follow through on actions, instructions, commitments and agendas.
UNDP adopts a portfolio approach to accommodate changing business needs and leverage linkages across interventions to achieve its strategic goals. Therefore, UNDP personnel are expected to work across units, functions, teams, and projects in multidisciplinary teams in order to enhance and enable horizontal collaboration.
