Pros

Really believe in the mandate to work for the good of all children; professional, caring and expert program staff in the field and at HQ

Cons

As the work is so focused on delivering services, sometimes the well-being of the staff falls by the wayside. The workload is heavy and burnout is a risk for international and local staff.

Pros

Working at the UN was an amazing experience, being able to take part in such a significant mission was great.

Cons

As I was not a full-time volunteer and was also responsible for fundraising in my territory, I felt that I did not receive the same treatment as the other volunteers. It was a challenging role and experience, and at times it felt like my well-being was not fully considered.
