Secondment to the IUCN The Danish engagement with IUCN has the overarching purpose of supporting IUCN’s Programme 2021-24 in realising its call to action by all IUCN’s Members, scientific network and Secretariat to mobilise collectively on delivering a clear and demonstrable contribution to the SDGs, the post-2020 global biodiversity framework and the Paris Agreement in developing countries.

Following this purpose, the objective of the development cooperation is support to IUCN’s global thematic and regional programmes to achieve their intended results for people, land, water, oceans, and climate, especially on climate adaptation, improved access to water resources, nature based solutions, gender equality, and rights and inclusion of indigenous peoples.
The secondment will be placed in the IUCN secretariat as part of the Danish support to achieve the objective of Denmark's engagement with IUCN.
