Dear Applicant,

We acknowledge receipt of your message requesting clarifications on the status of your application.

As you will understand, we receive a large number of applications for UNV assignments and, unfortunately, are unable to accommodate everyone who applies. In our review, not only age, training and relevant work experience are taken into consideration, but also other criteria such as the number of candidates currently on the UNV roster with a similar professional background, knowledge of UN working language(s), experience in the field of specialisation after completion of studies, etc. Based on these various elements, we have concluded that it is unlikely that we will be able to offer you an assignment as UN Volunteer in the near future.

Regarding the issue of persons who have served as UN Volunteers even without meeting our minimum criteria, please note that some countries sponsor their nationals. In such cases, a country might select a person who does not meet all miminum requirements. On the other hand, the UNV programme sometimes has to meet demands in a specific professional category that is not well represented in our roster of candidates. This may also require us to propose a candidate with less than our minimum requirements. We appreciate your understanding regarding these rare exceptions.

We hope our limitations in offering you an assignment will not discourage you to look for volunteering opportunities. In this context, may we suggest that you visit the WorldVolunteerWeb at http://www.WorldVolunteerWeb.org to obtain a wealth of information on volunteerism worldwide.

Once again, thank you for your understanding and please accept our best wishes for success in your endeavours.

Dear Mr.Marouen,

Thank you for completing our online questionnaire. Given that the minimum age to serve abroad as a UN Volunteer is 25, we are unable to offer you an assignment. We encourage you to reapply at a later stage and in the meantime to check our links to other organizations that send volunteers abroad at http://www.unvolunteers.org/volunteers/options/abroad/otherops.htm

You may also wish to visit the WorldVolunteerWeb at http://www.WorldVolunteerWeb.org to obtain a wealth of information on volunteerism worldwide. Country specific information is available at http://www.worldvolunteerweb.org/dynamic/cfapps/national_profiles/index.htm.
