Host entity: UNDP Global Programme on Nature for Development

Application deadline: 24/08/2026

Mission and objectives

UNDP’s Global Programme on Nature for Development brings together three different initiatives under one program – the Equator Initiative, the National Biodiversity Initiative, and the Global Forest Initiative – in order to identify, foster, showcase and celebrate nature-based solutions that help achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development at local, national and international levels. The work of the Global Programme on Nature for Development contributes to UNDP’s Strategic Plan 2014-2017 by charting sustainable development pathways through the conservation, restoration and sustainable management of biodiversity and ecosystems; and by promoting inclusive and effective democratic governance in the area of natural resources.

Assignment context

The Nature for Development team is currently revamping the Learning for Nature platform (https://www.learningfornature.org) to improve the user experience and make its free learning resources easier to access and navigate. Learning for Nature is UNDP’s global e-learning platform, offering courses, learning journeys, and other resources on biodiversity, climate, and sustainable development to learners around the world. As part of the website revamp, updated content is being made available in multiple languages. To help ensure the highest quality of the Portuguese version, we are seeking support with testing the website, reviewing translations for accuracy and consistency, and identifying any language, formatting, or display issues that may need to be corrected.

Skills and experience

We are looking for a candidate who is a native Portuguese speaker with strong writing, proofreading, and attention-to-detail skills. Experience reviewing website content or testing multilingual websites would be highly desirable. A general understanding of global development and environmental issues is also important.
