The United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme contributes to peace and development through volunteerism worldwide. UNV works with partners to integrate qualified, highly motivated and well supported UN Volunteers into development programming and promote the value and global recognition of volunteerism. UNV is administered by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). UNV mobilizes over 9,000 people annually as volunteers to work at national and international levels.
The UNV Fully Funding (FF) programme is successfully implemented by UNV in cooperation with the donor countries.
The Programme for Russian citizens aims at ensuring the participation of Russians in the UN activities and is implemented as a joint initiative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation and UNV within the framework of the signed Memorandums of Understanding on funding positions for Russian volunteers in the CIS countries, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and the Pacific region.
Russia and UNV signed the second Memorandum amounting $3 mln for 2022-2024
