The United Nations Human Settlements Programme, UN-Habitat, is the agency for human settlements. It is mandated by the UN General Assembly to promote socially and environmentally sustainable towns and cities with the goal of providing adequate shelter for all (www.unhabitat.org). Together with governments, the agency is responsible for promoting and consolidating collaboration with all partners, including local authorities and private and non-governmental organizations, in implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UN-Habitat leads the Global Water Operators’ Partnerships Alliance (GWOPA), which helps water and sanitation operators help one another. GWOPA is an international network created in 2009 to support operators through Water Operator Partnerships (WOPs) – not-for-profit peer support partnerships between water and sanitation operators to enhance their capacity and performance and provide better service to more people in support of the SDGs. The Government of Germany currently hosts the GWOPA Secretariat. The interns will be under the direct supervision of the UN-Habitat, Arab Region, Global Solutions Division / Urban Practices Branch / Urban Basic Services Section / Global Water Operators’ Partnerships Alliance (GWOPA), Project Management Officer.
