From time to time, UNESCO needs extra services, provided by persons other than its own permanent staff, in order to assist the Secretariat, Member States or its external partners for short periods and to bring in ad-hoc outside expertise which is not generally available within the Secretariat.
UNESCO has also introduced a new contractual modality, Project appointments, to cover specific projects or activities of a time-limited duration financed by extra-budgetary funds, in the field and at Headquarters and for Technical cooperation in UNESCO Category I Institutes and Centres.
