Useful Information about UNCTAD
Established in 1964, UNCTAD promotes the development-friendly integration of
developing countries into the world economy. UNCTAD has progressively
evolved into an authoritative knowledge-based institution whose work aims to
help shape current policy debates and thinking on development, with a
particular focus on ensuring that domestic policies and international action are
mutually supportive in bringing about sustainable development. The
organization works to fulfill this mandate by carrying out three key functions: It
functions as a forum for intergovernmental deliberations, supported by
discussions with experts and exchanges of experience, aimed at consensus
building. It undertakes research, policy analysis and data collection for the
debates of government representatives and experts. It provides technical
assistance tailored to the specific requirements of developing countries, with
special attention to the needs of the least developed countries and of
economies in transition.
The Secretary-General of UNCTAD is Dr. Mukhisa Kituyi (Kenya), who took office
on 1 September 2013.
In performing its functions, the secretariat works together with member
Governments and interacts with organizations of the United Nations system and
regional commissions, as well as with governmental institutions, nongovernmental organizations, the private sector, including trade and industry
associations, research institutes and universities worldwide.
The main Divisions and Offices that constitute UNCTAD are:
OSG - Office of the Secretary-General of UNCTAD in Geneva
ALDC – Division for Africa, Least Developed Countries and Special Programmes
DTL – Division on Technology and Logistics
DIAE – Division on Investment and Enterprise

Useful Information prior to your Arrival
Internship Programme General Information
The purpose of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development
Internship Programme is threefold: (a) to provide a framework by which
graduate and postgraduate students from diverse academic backgrounds may
be assigned to UNCTAD offices, where their educational experiences can be
enhanced through practical work assignments; (b) to expose them to the work
of the UNCTAD; and (c) to provide UNCTAD with the assistance of qualified
students specialized in various professional fields. Interns provide much-needed
assistance to departments and offices, bringing with them current knowledge
and research in their respective fields as well as fresh, new ideas born from the
perspective of a new generation. In turn, the Internship Programme may
enhance their education, training and research through practical work
assignments. This programme gives the interns an opportunity to work with
people of diverse nationalities, cultures and beliefs. An additional benefit of this
cross-cultural experience is that it fosters diversity of thought and promotes lifelong qualities of leadership, tolerance and respect among individuals in an
increasingly interdependent world.
If you have any questions concerning your specific assignment/job description
for your internship, your tasks and responsibilities, please contact your supervisor
listed in your offer letter.
The minimum duration of an internship is two months. The total duration may be
exceptionally extended to a maximum of six months when there are special
academic requirements or special needs of the receiving department/office.
The Internship Programme is on a full-time basis. You are expected to work five
days a week in your division/office under the supervision of a staff member.
If you do not accept the offer, inform the Office of Human Resources
Management Section as soon as possible. If you accept the offer, please
withdraw from any other internship post that you have applied for through
Inspira.

Required Documents
The United Nations Organization
If you do accept the offer, please sign both the Offer Letter and the Internship
Agreement sent to you by the Office of Human Resources Management Section
(HRMS) and submit their scanned copies via email within two weeks upon
receipt. If HRMS does not receive your signed documents within this time frame,
it will presume that you decline the internship offer.
Also, send the scanned versions of the following documents via email as soon as
possible. In case HRMS does not receive these documents at the latest on your
day of arrival, it reserves the right to withdraw the internship offer.
Proof of Enrollment in Graduate Studies:
Submit the completed Proof of Enrollment which is attached to your offer email.
This Proof of Enrollment confirms that you are enrolled in graduate studies or
equivalent studies and clearly states your expected date of graduation.
Medical Certificate:
The Medical Certificate you have to provide does not require a specific format.
What is needed is a document from your doctor stating that you are in good
health and fit to work.
Health Insurance Plan:
A Health Insurance Plan which covers you for the entire duration of your
internship is required. Since the UN does not accept any responsibility for costs
arising from accidents and/or illness incurred during your internship, you should
be enrolled in a health insurance plan that covers your entire stay in Switzerland.
The common health insurance plans in your home country in most cases do not
cover you abroad, or do so only for a limited period of time. The proof of
insurance does not require a specific format and could be in any of the UN
official languages (English preferred). Note that it will not be checked whether
you have the appropriate insurance or not. Be aware that it is in your own
interest to obtain an appropriate health insurance since medical treatment in
Switzerland can be extremely expensive.

HRMS/Internships
Visa
Interns are personally responsible for obtaining necessary visas for their stay in
Switzerland. The Swiss Mission at the United nations has informed us that most
interns arriving in Geneva will have to enter the country with an internship visa.
The specific type of visa may vary in each case. Please check the visa
requirements and the procedures with your Embassy/Consulate. The letter of
offer is sufficient information for a visa to be granted. Upon arrival at the United
Nations a Carte de Légitimation will be processed by HRMS-UNCTAD.. The
Human Resources Management Section of UNCTAD have neither the authority
nor the information to give legal advice on visa applications. Application
requirements vary for each single case. It is your own responsibility to inform
yourself and to obtain a valid visa.
Carte de legitimation
After arrival in Geneva, all non-Swiss nationals can apply for a carte de
légitimation. UNCTAD liaises with the Swiss authorities for your Swiss identity card
called a carte de légitimation You will need this card for all the administrative
formalities involved in establishing residency in Switzerland. You also need it for
such things as renting an apartment, obtaining a mobile, etc. When you start
your internship in Geneva you will be given an application form at induction. The
carte de légitimation will be valid for the period of your internship and it must be
returned to the respective Administrative Assistant in your Division on your last
day.
Travel
There is only one airport in Geneva, the Geneva Cointrin Airport
(http://www.gva.ch/en/desktopdefault.aspx), and the central Train Station
called Gare Cornavin (http://www.cff.ch/home.html). If possible try to arrive a
couple of days prior to your first day at work, so you can get things organized,
get to know the area and recover from jet lag. Furthermore, remember to inform
yourself of customs regulations, baggage restrictions etc.

HRMS/Internships
Housing
The Human Resources Management Section of UNCTAD, provides you with a
“housing list”, as well as hotels, hostals and bed & breakfasts. Consider that there
is a difference between the Swiss living situations and the situations which you
may know from your home country. It is generally more expensive with fewer
amenities. The average rent for one room in a shared apartment in Geneva will
be CHF 800 to CHF 1200, one studio in Geneva for CHF 1500 and up.
Accommodations tend to be less pricey outside Geneva and neighboring
France. The main options are apartments or shared apartments (flats) or foyers
(similar to dorms). The process for finding a place can be very time consuming
since the demand is high and places are limited. Please note that it is very
important to watch for scams while apartment hunting. Remember to be
careful!. Please take every precaution when meeting people you contact and
refrain from wiring money beforehand. The United Nations is not responsible for
any loss or harm to you based on any contacts you made through public
websites.
Foyers and Residences
This type of accommodation houses a lot of students from the University of
Geneva and interns. They are relatively inexpensive and offer the chance to
meet and interact with young people from all over the world. Some foyers
provide different services, such as bedding, laundry and internet connections,
sometimes even meals.
Shared apartments
Living in a shared apartment is one of the most popular ways to find
accommodation for interns in Geneva. It is also one of the best ways to find
housing at an average price. There are a couple of ways to search for shared
apartments, such as: Easy Roommate www.easyroommate.com
Geneva Welcome Center
This is a secure institution that provides all sorts of information and assistance,
free of charge, for newcomers to Geneva. The intention is to help provide a
smooth transition for international people moving to Geneva. Visit their website
at (www.cagi.ch)

HRMS/Internships
Glocals
Glocals is a social networking website intended for expatriates in Geneva. They
have a great housing and classified section.
Many interns and other
newcomers to Geneva find apartments via glocals, though the prices tend to
be a little on the expensive side. Visit www.glocals.com for more info.
Finding apartments/flats via agencies
Many apartments are controlled by real estate agencies called Regies. If you
are looking for an apartment you will normally need to go through the
application process where you will need to apply to the Regie for that
apartment, and the agency will decide to whom they want to rent it. To apply
you will need to contact them and request the specific documents to be
presented since a UN internship is unpaid, they may request another form of
attestation of income.
