TOR HPV Guide Design & Publication Agency/Consultant

Who We Are

Girl Effect is an international non-profit that builds media that girls want, trust and need. From chatbots to chat shows and TV dramas to tech, our content reaches millions of girls in Africa and Asia to make choices and changes in their lives. Igniting their confidence to act differently at a time that can define their future. We create safe spaces for girls, sharing facts and answering questions about health, nutrition, education, relationships, etc. And we use innovative technology so we can reach girls at scale. We arm girls with the skills to negotiate and redefine what they are told is possible, so every girl can choose to be in control of her body, her health, her learning and livelihood. When a girl unlocks her power to make different choices that change her life, it inspires others to do so too. She starts a ripple effect that impacts her family, community, and country. That’s the Girl Effect.

Background

Girl Effect has developed a suite of HPV and immunization technical guidelines under its Social and Behaviour Change (SBC) programming portfolio, in partnership with global and national health stakeholders, including Gavi, UNICEF, and national EPI departments (Essential Programme for Immunization).

These guidelines are highly technical documents intended for use by:

• National EPI managers
• Immunization programme implementers
• SBC and communication specialists
• Technical partners and donors

While the content has been technically strengthened and rewritten to reflect global best practice, the current outputs require professional design, formatting, visualization, and production-ready layout development to ensure they are:

• Visually engaging and easy to navigate
• Consistent across a suite of 9+ technical documents
• Clear in presenting complex SBC and immunization concepts
• Suitable for both print and digital use
• Aligned with Girl Effect’s brand and accessibility standards

The design partner will play a critical role in transforming technical content into high-quality, user-friendly publications that can serve as technical guidebooks for the global community of practice for vaccination and immunization.
