PURPOSE  
The Programme identified three key needs that require the support of a specialist:
1). We need to make the work of the teams more visible, both internally and externally;
2). We would like to better support our Amnesty International (AI) global comms channels, which have to include a stronger gender, racial justice and intersectionality approach according to our Strategic Framework, and could benefit from the teams' expertise;
3). We are exploring a project on narrative changing, which is transversal to all of the work of the Programme, and we would like to explore further AI's role.

OBJECTIVES AND DELIVERABLES  
  • Create a space for reflecting on communication needs and opportunities for the Programme with a view to developing a short, mid and long term communications strategy.
  • Develop efficient communication between our program and the Marketing and Communications team at the IS, as well as with regional offices; with the objective to increase the gender, racial justice and intersectionality approach in our global channels.
  • Map opportunities in legacy and digital media as well as social platforms, in line with resources available.
  • Co-produce content (including opeds, analysis pieces and short reports, among others), from September to December.
  • Deliver communications training for team, including for effective interviews with media, oped writing, etc as needed (if time allows).

Known Project Stages
Work would be organized in stages, each building on the previous one, making this a collaborative and inclusive process in which the consultant can help 
the programme to work together to develop a communications strategy in a way that makes sense to all team members – which is key to making it 
sustainable in the long run.  
Stage 1: Strategy (September)
Stage 2: Implementation Plan, including production of key outputs, trainings, etc, (September to November)
Stage 3: Review and plan for 2024 (January 2024)

Deadlines for Delivery
We would like to start as soon as possible. We believe we will need four weeks (working on 2 days a week basis) for the development of the communications plan 
(including reflection sessions, drafting, feedback and negotiation with other programmes). 
After that, we will agree on the materials and trainings required for the team, which can be delivered also on a part time basis, 2 days a week, until the end of the 
year. An evaluation and planning for the following year should also be built into the process.

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS  
  • Strong communications skills in English, a second language is a plus.
  • Significant comms experience in the non-for-profit sector, experience with Amnesty International is a plus.
  • Strong experience working with global media, local or regional experience is a plus.
