OVERVIEW OF THE FUNCTIONS OF THE POST
The focus of the Social and Human Science Sector (SHS) at UNESCO is to foster inclusive societies, by prioritizing policies that benefit the most vulnerable populations who are most likely to be left behind in crisis contexts. In particular, UNESCO strives to enhance its efforts to fight against societal ills such as racism and discrimination which continue to pervade across regions. One of the flagship programmes to support this mandate is to enhance the “Routes of Enslaved Peoples: Resistance, Liberty and Heritage” which contributes to the production of innovative knowledge, the development of scientific research and networks and the support of history and memory initiatives on the theme of enslavement, the transatlantic slave trade, its abolition and the resistance it generated. In the Sector, the Inclusion, Rights and Intercultural Dialogue Section (IRD) leads the implementation of this programme which has played an instrumental role in breaking the silence around this tragedy and has reinforced UNESCO’s scientific legitimacy in the field.
Under the overall authority of the Assistant Director-General for Social and Human Sciences Sector (ADG/SHS), strategic guidance from the Director for Research, Ethics and Inclusion (REI) and direct supervision of the Chief of Section, the incumbent will be responsible for the design, implementation, monitoring, evaluation and reporting on activities that address past and present racial discriminations, and by supporting innovative approaches to history and memory as outlined in the 2021 Strategic Framework for the Routes of Enslaved Peoples programme.

Develop and implement a strategy to set a global agenda under UNESCO’s leadership in formulating legislative and institutional frameworks related to restorative justice and reparations arising from enslavement and the transatlantic slave trade, by preparing proposals, creating partnerships, and supervising the design, implementation and assessment of related initiatives, also informed by the outcomes of the 30th anniversary of the Routes of Enslaved Peoples programme in 2024.
Strengthen, document and implement the Network of Places of History and Memory linked to Enslavement and the Slave Trade, including the creation of a global register and the development of meaningful activities such as capacity strengthening, practical tools for preservation, management and artistic/cultural events for visibility, understanding and valorization of the Places and the establishment of regular exchanges between these places, leading to the twining of cities that are linked by past history. Engaging in dialogue with the Place managers, local authorities and communities, especially young people, for the social and economic benefits of these groups.

Establish solid partnerships among Member States, international/regional organizations, academic and research institutions, prominent thought leaders, cultural/artistic communities, civil society actors, relevant NGOs, media and private sector entities to equip communities across regions with knowledge, skills, resources and networks such as mentorship, grants and training programmes for Afrodescendant communities, with a focus on youth and women.
