Statistics Intern: Communications and digital outreach
October 25, 2024
Work Location
Bangkok, Thailand This internship is designed to be in-person and full-time but the work location can be adjusted based on request by the successful candidate.
Expected duration
3-6 months
Duties and Responsibilities
The ESCAP Statistics Division is guided by the Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics and the Principles Governing International Statistical Activities and by the work programme and the membership of ESCAP. Our mandates arise from a number of General Assembly, ECOSOC and ESCAP resolutions. The core areas of the Division's work include implementing programmes for capacity building in statistics; collecting and analysing data on the region; and publishing statistical and analytical publications. We work closely with the ESCAP Statistical Institute for Asia and the Pacific and organizations that are part of national statistics systems in the region (national statistical offices are our main counterparts); the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs; other United Nations entities; and with many regional and international organizations. The ESCAP Committee on Statistics, in its 7th session, decided to feature the use of Big Data for Official Statistics in its future work with an emphasis on sharing country research, experiences and good practices and facilitating capacity development. Such non-traditional data sources, such as earth observation data, can complement traditional data such as surveys in order to provide more timely and granular data needed by decision-makers to support the 2030 Agenda. The Statistics internship in communications and digital outreach is for at least three months, with an opportunity for an extension of up to six months, depending on the needs of the division and the availability of the candidate. The internship is UNPAID and full-time. Interns work five days per week (35 hours) under the supervision of a staff member in the department or office to which they are assigned.
