Why Sponsor UN Volunteers?
Sponsoring UN Volunteers allows organizations to directly support global peace and development efforts. As a funding partner, you can choose to sponsor nationals from your own country or from other countries of your choice, empowering them to apply their skills to urgent global challenges and have them serving in their country or abroad.

SDG 8: Decent work and economic growth
One international UN Volunteer, ten community volunteers, and one UN Online Volunteer are running the Start-Up Choihona project, which has so far organized two national entrepreneurial competitions promoting innovation and youth employment. Quarterly competitions offer an opportunity for new entrepreneurs to present their unique business ideas to a panel of judges. Given the chance to pitch their ideas, Tajik entrepreneurs have the chance to get feedback on whether their business ideas could work and gain access to valuable networks of potential business partners and investors.
