UNV contributes to peace and development by advocating for volunteerism globally, encouraging partners to integrate volunteerism into development programming, and mobilizing volunteers.In most cultures volunteerism is deeply embedded in long-established, ancient traditions of sharing and support within the communities. In this context, UN Volunteers take part in various forms of volunteerism and play a role in development and peace together with co-workers, host agencies and local communities.In all assignments, UN Volunteers promote volunteerism through their action and conduct. Engaging in volunteer activity can effectively and positively enrich their understanding of local and social realities, as well as create a bridge between themselves and the people in their host community. This will make the time they spend as UN Volunteers even more rewarding and productive.<\/p>\n

The last operation of this nature was carried out in 2010. The new Sustainable Development Goals, Agenda 2030, adopted in September 2015 by all UN Member States, calls for a people-centered development approach, a life of dignity for all, leaving no one behind.

Results of the PHC will be used for development planning for raising the standard of living of the people of Ghana, good governance and maintaining equity and equality among all subgroups.<\/p>\n Given its complexity and scope, the project requires the establishment of an appropriate system for all matters relating to the organization, coordination and to the management of the operations. It is in this sense that the support of a NPA Census knowledgeable in the conduct of census activities is required to assist with the work of the technical team on the project.
