ICIMOD is committed to, celebrates and promotes equal opportunity and diversity in the workplace. We make efforts to ensure that all regional member countries are adequately represented in the workforce and have a Young ICIMOD Professionals Programme (YIPP) to encourage youth from underrepresented regional member countries and donor countries to apply. The majority of our staff are from the Hindu Kush Himalaya. ICIMOD is also committed to gender and social diversity and encourages qualified women candidates and those from disadvantaged backgrounds to apply.
