How volunteering boosts the participation of persons with disabilities

Meet Vibhu Sharma, a UN Volunteer Associate Policy Officer in the Human Resources Policy Section, Department of Management Strategy, Policy and Compliance, of the United Nations Secretariat. Vibhu serves through the UNDP/UNV Talent Programme for Young Professionals with Disabilities. She shares how her UN Volunteer assignment has been an entry point for her to serve the global organization that serves the world. 

What motivated me to serve as a UN Volunteer was my desire to learn and to contribute to the important work of the United Nations. It is inspiring that the programme provides such opportunities to young and emerging professionals like me.
