UNEP: Website Design and User Experience Consultant– Geneva

tendersglobal.net

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the United Nations system’s designated entity for addressing environmental issues at the global and regional level. Its mandate is to coordinate the development of environmental policy consensus by keeping the global environment under review and bringing emerging issues to the attention of governments and the international community for action. The Green Growth Knowledge Partnership (GGKP) is a global community of policy, business, and finance professionals and organisations committed to collaboratively generating, managing, and sharing knowledge on the transition to an inclusive green economy. Led by UNEP, the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), and the World Bank, GGKP’s mission is to empower government decision makers, companies and financial institutions with evidence‑based knowledge to support the green economy transition. GGKP provides best‑practice knowledge management services through its three core platforms: the Green Policy Platform, the Green Industry Platform, and the Green Finance Platform.

A Website Design and User Experience consultant (retainer‑based) is sought to assist in developing functional mockups for an integrated digital platform that will serve as a definitive reference hub for green and circular economy knowledge. This platform will consolidate the three existing specialized platforms into a single, intelligent ecosystem serving diverse stakeholder groups, including policy advisers, technical experts, portfolio managers, business representatives, and general audiences. It will feature AI‑powered personalization, multi‑dimensional navigation, interactive AI agents and bots, and specialized hubs (Country Hubs, SectoralHubs, and Industry Support Hubs) that provide tailored content experiences based on user profiles and needs. The platform will behave as a fully‑fledged WebApp, mobile‑first, to guarantee a smooth UX across any device.
