The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is currently looking for the services of a User Interface Designer for the web pages of its upcoming Sixth Assessment Report.

Designer specifications

The IPCC is currently working on its Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) which consists of three volumes and a Synthes Report. The first, being worked on by Working Group I is on the physical science basis for climate change. The second is on impacts, adaptation and vulnerabilities and it is being worked on by the Working Group II of the IPCC. Working Group III is working on the third contribution on mitigation. The Synthesis Report as the name suggests integrates the three Working Group contributions to the assessment and any Special Reports prepared in that assessment cycle. 

The AR6 will have three dedicated report microsites, one for each the Working Group contributions and the Synthesis Report. These report websites will be developed using a so-called static site generator and the designs will be based on already existing report websites, see example here: https://www.ipcc.ch/sr15.
