2020 Directory The JPO Alumni Association (JAA) Launched in 2003, the Junior Professional Officer Alumni Association (JAA) groups 2,952 members as of July 2020. The JAA is viewed as a key contribution to the development of a cross-generational JPO community spirit. The JAA is also open to former SARCs (Special Assistant to the Resident Coordinator) alumni. 84 former SARCs are member of the JAA, 56 of them were former JPOs as well. The JPO Alumni Association promotes a lifelong connection to the United Nations' activities and the Organisation's ethical standards. More specifically, it aims at: o Making use of the talents and resources of former JPOs to advocate the United Nations values; o Fostering a community spirit and knowledge sharing among former JPOs; o Facilitating job search for former JPOs. For more information on the JAA, please visit our website, or contact the UNDP JPO Service Centre (JAA focal point: jean- [email protected]). The Yearly JAA Member Directory Published every year by the UNDP JPO Service Centre (Office of Human Resources / Bureau for Management Services) the JAA Member Directory aims at producing a yearly snapshot of the composition of the JAA, from which key statistics, as well as trends over the years can be extracted. We trust that this JAA Member Directory will strengthen the visibility of the JAA and further develop its activities. It will also allow the JPO Service Centre to refine its response to donor’s follow-up requests and to support career development of current JPOs. The JPO Service Centre would like to take this opportunity to thank the JAA Members for their continuous commitment in the Alumni initiative and their contribution to the current document. Alumni can make new professional connections through the JPO Alumni Association's official LinkedIn group, exclusively for all former JPOs, SARCs and SDPs. Discussion posts are moderated and the topics are focussed on career-related news and alumni networking opportunities.
