**Responsibilities**:
The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system and serves as an authoritative advocate for the global environment.

The UNEP Latin America and the Caribbean Office (LACO), located in Panama City, Panama works closely with the 33 countries of the region and its activities are integrated into the Medium-Term Strategy and the Programme of Work approved by the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA).

In this regard, UNEP supports the efforts of Governments to design and implement specific programmes and to formulate legal means to address environmental and sustainable development issues as well as to comply with relevant international environmental standards and obligations, including through legal technical assistance, training, and other legal capacity-building activities. Strategic direction in this respect comes from the Fifth Programme for the Development and Periodic Review of Environmental Law (Montevideo Programme V) adopted by the United Nations Environment Assembly under resolution 4/20 in March 2019, as an intergovernmental programme designed to promote the development and implementation of environmental rule of law, strengthen the related capacity in countries, and contribute to the environmental dimension of the 2030 Agenda.

Latin America and the Caribbean is the most dangerous region for environmental human rights defenders. Under the Escazú Agreement, states must ensure a safe and enabling environment for defenders and take action to prevent, investigate and bring to justice attacks against them. In this context and to support the fulfillment of the overall objective of the UNEP Sub-programme on Environmental Governance, UNEP Latin America and the Caribbean Office is recruiting a Consultant for Events Support and Communications, aiming to address the challenges and opportunities f
