1. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) is the United Nations agency mandated to advocate for the protection of children’s rights, emphasizing the needs of the most disadvantaged, excluded and vulnerable children. UNICEF works to ensure that all children are provided with opportunities to survive, develop and reach their full potential, to the benefit of the sustained growth and stability of countries and a global standard of human rights for all. Guided by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, UNICEF strives to establish children’s rights as enduring ethical principles and international standards of behavior towards children. UNICEF works with all its partners towards the attainment of the sustainable development goals adopted by the world community and the realization of the vision of peace and social progress enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations.
The UNICEF Lesotho Country Office faces ongoing requirements for production of communication, advocacy and visibility materials that document children’s key issues and UNICEF’s responses in the field through high quality content packages. These content packages will be used as advocacy tools to push for support with policy makers, media, donors, partners and the public at large particularly on key priority issues such as ending child marriages, keeping girls in school and parenting skills campaigns. These high-quality content packages include graphic design packages, advocacy toolkits, photos, human interest stories, videos and short films, animations, outreach materials, etc. that document UNICEF’s work and programming in the country.
These content packages will be disseminated through different channels including website, social media platforms, external media networks, partner networks and donor reports. To meet this requirement, UNICEF would like to engage the services of Copy Editors to edit UNICEF communication, advocacy and visibility materials in-line with UNICEF style and brand guidelines, and who will be available at 1-3 days’ notice to edit documents related to UNICEF activities and programme.
