UNICEF offers a number of volunteer opportunities to support its diverse work around the world. Do you have experience recruiting volunteers? How would you recruit volunteers for UNICEF?

"I am aware that UNICEF primarily partners with the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) for its volunteer efforts. Based on my examination of the UNV website, the organization is seeking volunteers who are specialists and professionals in their fields. For example, a social worker with NGO experience might be selected to become a program specialist at a refugee camp in Palestine. To attract high-quality candidates to fill these volunteer positions, I would utilize my vast network to partner with institutions of higher learning and recruit from specific departments."

"I understand that UNICEF USA mainly supports advocacy, education, and fundraising efforts through volunteers located there. There is a great amount of diversity in these activities; as a volunteer recruiter, I know that there must also be diversity in my approach to recruiting more volunteers. In the past, I have successfully utilized social media in my efforts to attract new volunteers from Generation Z. I would expand this approach by leaning into UNICEF's already impressive social media following and partnering with influencers relevant in popular culture. This strategy can exponentially increase UNICEF's visibility and will not only result in a greater number of volunteers but also potentially new donors."
