Mission and objectives
UNESCO's founding mission, which was shaped by the events of World War II, is to advance peace, sustainable development and human rights by facilitating collaboration and dialogue among nations.[It pursues this objective through five major programme areas: education, natural sciences, social/human sciences, culture and communication/information. UNESCO sponsors projects that improve literacy, provide technical training and education, advance science, protect independent media and press freedom, preserve regional and cultural history, and promote cultural diversity.
UNESCO assists in the translation and dissemination of world literature, helps establish and secure World Heritage Sites of cultural and natural importance, works to bridge the worldwide digital divide, and creates inclusive knowledge societies through information and communication.[14] UNESCO has launched several initiatives and global movements, such as Education For All.

Context
The Tech Volunteers for Resilience (Tech4R) programme mobilizes skilled digital volunteers to co-create open-source tools that strengthen resilience, recovery, and inclusive education.

The Content & Narration Volunteers will be responsible for writing, adapting, and localizing narrative content, dialogue, and voiceover text in collaboration with education and psychology teams, ensuring all messages are clear, age-appropriate, and supportive of psychological well-being
