UN Volunteers platform is offering an online volunteer opportunity, as UNODC is looking for a creative and motivated online volunteer to support the organization’s Advocacy Section with developing and managing the social media for a new campaign, #Act4RuleofLaw.

At the conclusion of the 13th United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice held in Qatar, the Doha Declaration was adopted. Calling for the integration of crime prevention and criminal justice into the wider agenda of the United Nations, and endorsed by the General Assembly, the Doha Declaration has at its centre the understanding that the rule of law and sustainable development are interrelated and mutually reinforcing. To put the Doha Declaration into reality, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime - with the financial support of the State of Qatar - launched a Global Programme aimed at helping countries achieve a positive and sustainable impact on crime prevention, criminal justice, corruption prevention, and the rule of law. Targeting the general public directly, the #Act4RuleofLaw campaign aims at raising public awareness and engaging all stakeholders on rule of law issues.
