UNDP JPO Service Centre, Midtermolen 3, 2100 Copenhagen Ø, Denmark - www.jposc.org
Presentation Launched in September 2003, the JPO Alumni Association (JAA) comprises 1355 members as of 13 July 2 009, and is v iewed as a k ey c ontribution to the development of a c ross-generational JPO community spirit. The J PO Alumni A ssociation promotes a life long c onnection to the Unite d N ations' activities and th e Organisation's ethical standards. More specifically, it aims at:
o Making use of the talents and resources of former JPOs to advocate the United Nations values;
o Fostering a community spirit and knowledge sharing among former JPOs;
o Facilitating job search for former JPOs. For more information on the JAA, please visit our website: www.jposc.org / Alumni or contact the UNDP JPO Service Centre (JAA focal point: jean-luc.marcelin@undp.org). Published e very ye ar by the UNDP JPO Service Ce ntre, the JAA Members Directory aims a t producing a yearly snapshot of the composition of the JAA, from which key statistics, as well as trends over the years, can be extracted. The Yearly Directory is also meant to complement the online JAA Directory (www.jposc.org / Alumni / JAA Directory), w hose a ccess is r estricted to th e me mbers of the JAA, a nd contains mo re detailed member information. We trust that the 2009 JAA Members Directory will strengthen the v isibility of th e J AA and fur ther develop its activities. It will also allow the JPO Service Centre to refine its response to donor’s follow-up requests and to support career development of current JPOs. The UNDP JPO Service Centre would like to take this opportunity to thank the JAA Members for their continuous interest in the Alumni initiative and their contribution to the current document.

JAA Members by JPO Agency Highlights:
The JPO Alumn i As sociation now c omprises for mer JPOs coming from 44 different UN organisations or specific entities (against 34 in 2008, 28 in 2007 and 21 in 2006)
67% (against 73% in 2008 and 76% in 2007) of the Alumni members were JPOs with UNDP or
an affiliated Agency (IAPSO, UNCDF, UNDOCO, UNIFEM and UNV). This high figu re comes from the fact that the JAA was first created by UNDP. It is however decreasing along the years as the As sociation is open to a ll former J POs from the UN System an d as the database o f former JPOs slowly becomes more comprehensive.
