OVERVIEW OF THE FUNCTIONS OF THE POST
Background:
1. Introduction
The UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) is the official and trusted source of internationally comparable data on education, science, culture and communication. As the official statistical agency of UNESCO, the UIS produces a wide range of indicators in UNESCO's fields of action by working with national statistical offices, line ministries and other statistical organizations. The UIS Director serves as the Organization's chief statistician.
2. Objectives:
The UIS has thirteen websites, two of which are data visualisation sites (VIEW and WIDE), one of which is an API based web database (UIS browser), a Bulk Data Download Service, and nine of which are text-driven (Home page, GAML, TCG, AMPL, COVID, GEO, ISCED, UIS Conference website, and the Learning Data Toolkit).
The work of the consultant has three main objectives:
1. Conceptualize and develop website strategy for the UIS
This will consist of analyzing and assessing existing UIS websites, identifying all existing platforms that can be migrated to Drupal CMS.

2. Website development project management
This work will consist of developing requirements based on the outcomes of the mapping exercise, including developing website structure and site map. Ensure that all requirements are met by the web developers and approve and test the final platform together with UNESCO CPE, conducting UAT testing and producing monthly reports tracking progress in restructuring the website and providing enhanced user experience.
3. Content migration
Once the website has been developed, migrate all content identified in the mapping process to the new website. This will include identifying appropriate available page and content types, creating menus and individual page layouts. Produce monthly plan for content upload and new page creation.
This work will involve close collaboration with the Director of the UIS and the Dir/CPE team at UNESCO to ensure compliance with UNESCO's web standards and guidelines including redirections process of key pages and ensuring SEO position is kept.
4. Overall coordination
Act as the UIS Web focal point and collaborate with UNESCO's internal web services and external online communications groups in order to improve outreach. Support coordination of digital communications for UIS.
Long Description
Tasks:
The Consultant's tasks consist of mapping UIS' existing online content and proposing a strategy for its logical migration across onto the UNESCO website,
Specifically, the consultant will be responsible for the following tasks/duties:
1. A mapping of UIS' existing online text-driven content

3. Monthly reports tracking progress in restructuring the website and providing enhanced user experience.
4. Monthly plan for content upload and new page creation.
5. Proposal of branding suggestions for the UIS webpages within the new site and in line with UNESCO brand guidelines.
