Programme Assistant - Temporary

THIS IS A TEMPORARY STAFF POSITION

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives.

Our mission is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world.

Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges.

From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.

The Economics Department of the OECD aims at enhancing economic performance in member countries and non-member economies through sound and innovative policy advice with a view to seeking an inclusive and durable increase in living standards.

It deals with a wide array of policy areas combining macro-economic management, with a strong emphasis on structural policy issues to address policy objectives covering material well-being, social concerns and green aspirations.

Its policy advice is derived from a variety of sources such as country surveillance, cross-country benchmarking and evidence derived from empirical research.

The Economics Department interacts with several other OECD directorates working in specific policy fields.

The Global Forum on Productivity (GFP) is an initiative of several OECD directorates - the Science, Technology and Innovation Directorate and the two branches of the Economics Department - in the field of productivity research, analysis and policy advice.

Its three main activities are convening events, research, and communication (website management, design and social media presence).
