Social Policy and Research Intern for Contributing to the work of Social Policy and Research: Public Finance 4 Children pillar a tUNCEF Kigali- Rwanda: Deadline: 17 Jun 2021

0

UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

For every child, 

How can you make a difference?

Background

Like in many other countries across the globe, the COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on Rwanda’s economy, as the annual GDP has contracted by 3.4 percent in GDP in 2020 compared to a growth rate of 9.5 percent in 2019. Except for agriculture which experienced an increase of 1 percent, all sectors of the economy recorded a decrease, industry sector dropped by 4 percent and services by 6 percent. However, the recovery is foreseen for the next three years, with 5.1 percent growth in 2021, 7.0 percent in 2022 and 8.1 percent in 2023.

The latest IMF reviews (2020-2021) have reported that the fiscal toll of the pandemic on Rwanda’s economy is large, and it is expected to cause a revenue shortfall of 2.2 percent of GDP and increase the fiscal deficit at 8.5 percent of GDP in FY2020/21 up from 6.1% in 2019, while the ratio of external public debt is projected at 75.7 percent of GDP at end-2021 up from 45.4 percent in 2019. However, with the development and approvals of COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutics, the economic forecast is more promising. The country’s IMF economic forecast shows that Rwanda’s GDP growth for 2021 will be 5.1 percent and 7.0 percent in 2022, but it will take time for the Fiscal Space to recover.

UNICEF Rwanda supports the Governments in strengthening social sector programming and engaging in the budget process to influence allocation decisions and improve public spending efficiency, equity, and budget transparency. This is being done by developing annual budget briefs for priority sectors for children mainly (i) social protection, (ii) education, (iii) health, (iv) WASH, (v) Nutrition and the overall national budget brief. In addition, UNICEF does the monitoring of fiscal space, financing policies and sectoral financing strategies.

The above portfolio has been growing recently and the demand for timely and quality analysis is also increasing.

The WBG YPP is a two-year leadership development program at the start of a five-year employment contract with the World Bank, IFC or MIGA. Young Professionals (YPs) start the program in Washington, DC, where they engage in intensive training—on-the-job and in the classroom—learning the fundamentals of leadership and development operations across institutions, and how to identify opportunities for joint impact.

EY PROGRAM FEATURES

Professional Experience YPs are full-time employees, making significant contributions to their respective unit’s work program, while building networks and knowledge across the Bank Group through the YPP. They often join field missions, where they work on the frontlines of WBG operations, learning key aspects of our work and directly engaging with our clients.

Leadership Development Through the WBG YPP curriculum, YPs develop the foundational knowledge to contribute to our business and the competencies to lead. Activities range from leadership and professional development workshops to networking, mentorship and conversations with WBG leadership.

Training on WBG Policies, Products & Operations YPs engage in intensive training on the policies, products and operations of the World Bank, IFC and MIGA. This aspect of the WBG YPP curriculum ensures that YPs know how to operationalize joint WBG solutions to development challenges, and how to retain and apply this knowledge for years to come.

Global Rotations across WBG YPs participate in at least one rotation within their home institution, with some engaging in additional rotations to another institution, with the goal of developing and applying skills across the business. Rotations are a core component of the curriculum, providing YPs the exposure to understand how our institutions work (and can work together) as well as how to align their skills to priority areas, like countries affected by fragility, conflict and violence (FCV), and other challenging environments.

Coaching & Mentoring YPs are assigned several mentors at the peer and departmental level. Mentors can provide advice on various topics ranging from settling into Washington, DC to identifying career opportunities throughout the YP experience, and beyond.

Networking Events In addition to the program orientation and graduation ceremonies, the WBG YPP office organizes regular events for YPs to stay in touch with program alumni, stakeholders and broader WBG staff.

Management Supported Rotations & Job Placements YPs are provided management-level support in their transitions to rotations and post-YPP job placements, ensuring their skills are best placed across the business.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

The WBG YPP offers a competitive salary and benefits package as part of a 5-year term contract. Benefits include health, life and accident insurance, a pension plan and possible relocation and mobility benefits depending on WBG guidelines.
