Background

The main mandate of the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) is to promote sustainable development of human settlements and policies conducive to adequate housing for all.

Within this framework, UN-Habitat supports central and state governments, as well as local authorities and other partners for the implementation of the Habitat Agenda, the 2030 Agenda with the Sustainable Development Goals and the New Urban Agenda.

UN-Habitat helps the urban poor by transforming cities into safer, more inclusive, compact, integrated, resilient and connected places with better opportunities where everyone can live with dignity.

It works with organizations at every level, including all spheres of government, civil society and the private sector to help build, manage, plan and finance sustainable urban development.

The Regional Office for Latin American and the Caribbean - ROLAC - is based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Agency puts emphasis in developing and managing activities in the host country.

Indeed, for the past years, UN-Habitat has expanded its portfolio in Brazil by working with the three tiers of government in order to support the formulation and implementation of more effective, sustainable, participative and socially fairer urban economic, social and environmental policies.

Each year, UN-Habitat celebrates Urban October, which begins with World Habitat Day and ends with the World Day of Cities.

To promote the debate on the themes of each year's Urban October throughout Brazil, the UN-Habitat office in Brazil created, in 2018, the Urban Circuit:
an initiative to institutionally support and give visibility to events organized by various actors.

In 2023, the 6th edition of the Urban Circuit will be held in hybrid format, with live online and in-person events or recorded and published later.

In order to properly implement the initiative, a Graphic Facilitator is required to ensure a good execution of events visual documentation.
