กรงเทพมหานคร, Thailand United Nations Full time

The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), part of the United Nations Secretariat, is the leading UN entity on human rights mandated work for the protection of all human rights for all people; to help empower people to realize their rights; and to assist those responsible for upholding such rights in ensuring that they are implemented. The fundamental pillars of OHCHR’s work globally include: (1) strengthening the rule of law and accountability for human rights violations; (2), enhancing and protecting civic space and people’s participation; (3) enhancing equality and countering discrimination: (4) integrating human rights in sustainable development; (5) early warning, prevention and protection of human rights in situations of conflict and insecurity; and (6) increasing implementation of the international human rights mechanisms' outcomes.

This announcement broadcasts international internships based in the OHCHR Regional Office for South-East Asia (SEARO). Established in 2002, the Regional Office for South-East Asia acts as an expert resource and plays a catalytic and convening role, helping to bring human rights standards and mechanisms into discussions on political, social, economic and developmental issues amongst governmental and non-governmental actors. A combination of technical support and capacity building with key partners as well as advocacy on human rights issues of concern has formed the basis of the work of the Regional Office, including with government authorities, national human rights institutions, the UN system, civil society and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). In addition to its work on the six fundamental pillars, SEARO is working on a number of thematic areas including migration, climate change and environmental rights, digital space and business and human rights and the Office aims to integrate gender into all areas of its work. SEARO covers Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand, Viet Nam, and it also supports OHCHR's work elsewhere in the Asia and Pacific region.

Based in Bangkok, Thailand, this assignment may be offered for a period of six (6) months, with an initial commencement date ranging/starting from June 2023 to December 2023.

This internship is an UNPAID and full-time engagement that provides a framework through which students from diverse academic backgrounds gain exposure to the work of the United Nations by way of their service within Secretariat entities. Applicants should have a demonstrated keen interest in the work of the United Nations with a personal commitment to the ideals of the Charter, and have the demonstrated ability to successfully interact with individuals of different cultural backgrounds and beliefs - which includes willingness to understand and be tolerant of differing opinions and views.

Applicants may be requested to undertake the internship remotely in view of delays in ESCAP’s building construction which is affecting SEARO’s office space in Bangkok, Thailand, for a part or the entirety of the internship.

**Responsibilities**:
The intern shall support OHCHR in fulfilling its mission: to work for the protection of all human rights for all people; to help empower people to realize their rights; and to assist those responsible for upholding such rights in ensuring that they are implemented.

Daily responsibilities of the Human Rights (Regional Office - South-East Asia) intern will depend on the individual's background and duties may include but are not limited to monitoring and analysis of developments and trends (i.e. human rights, politics and conflict) in South-East Asia; researching and drafting internal and external notes and reports within the assigned area. In particular, the intern may: prepare daily news updates with information on the human rights situation in the region; support SEARO’s engagement with the UN human rights mechanisms, including Special Procedures and Treaty Bodies; assist with the organization of workshops and seminars; maintaining and developing information and resource tools; update information on SEARO’s website; participate and take notes in meetings/conferences, as requested; and perform other duties as requested by the supervisor, as appropriate.
