• Provide support for internal communication products by designing visuals for the dissemination of the Youth Guide and creating visual checklists and programmatic infographics.
• Engage in creative proposal and conceptualization by suggesting graphic lines, visual styles, and narratives. Adapt technical content into clear and attractive visual formats that resonate with the target audience. The GIJ will provide guidelines, base content, and key messages to assist in these tasks.

However, it provides valuable experience and the opportunity to contribute to meaningful projects within the United Nations framework. The role may be part-time or full-time, depending on the availability of the volunteers and the needs of the GIJ.
