About UN University

For the past four decades, UNU has been a go-to think tank for impartial research on the pressing global problems of human survival, conflict prevention, development, and welfare. With more than 400 researchers in 13 countries, UNU’s work spans the full breadth of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, generating policy-relevant knowledge to effect positive global change. UNU maintains more than 200 collaborations with UN agencies and leading universities and research institutions across the globe.

About the Office of Communications

The Office of Communications (OC) at UNU Centre in Tokyo implements and oversees UNU’s communications strategy, including web, visual identity, branding, media relations, and content development/delivery in English and Japanese. The OC works in collaboration with communication focal points across the University’s global network of institutes and programmes to best articulate and meet UNU communication goals.

Specifically, the OC:
• develops and maintains UNU’s core web platform, with input from institutes and stakeholders;
• employs social media channels to further the reach of UNU’s output;
• leads development of UNU’s brand/identity and guides its implementation and elaboration;
• establishes the editorial tone and style for core communications outputs (such as the UNU website, Our World blog, annual report, and promotional materials);
• coordinates local and international media activities with press and media outlets, often in collaboration with focal points and partners; and
• provides general support, training, and guidance to UNU’s global network of institutes.

The OC, supported by stakeholders from across the UNU system, is currently leading a project to collaboratively redevelop UNU’s brand and online presence. The UNU Web Platform Development Project aims to combine all UNU institutes’ primary websites (30+) together onto the same platform, redevelop shared databases, and create a cohesive UNU web experience through similar design and user experience. The project has three phases:

1. Phase I: Branding - Redefine UNU’s identity, organisational vision, values, and impact on society and with stakeholders.
2. Phase II: Strategy and Design - Translate the outcomes from the Branding phase into a visual identity and a UNU web strategy (i.e. who our audiences are, how we want to engage with them online, and what the best web design and structure are to achieve that).
3. Phase III: Development - Technical build and implementation of the architecture designed in the Strategy and Design phase.

• Manage the identification, monitoring, and mitigation of project-related risks.
