Contract

This is a UNV contract. More about UNV contracts.

In December 2024 UNSMIL launched a new political process. As the Mission facilitates a Libya-led process to find a solution to the political impasse, there is an increased demand for communications resources and content explaining the mandate, the process and recommendations and working to prevent an increase in hate speech.

The Mission has developed a communications strategy focused on informing, educating and moblising the Libyan public around the key issues. Our aim is to inform the public around the key issues and explain the recommendations being presented by Libyan stakeholders. We want to engage Libyan youth, women, civil society, security and political actors to ensure that they can share their views and ideas, and to mobilise them on a collective path for change.

The political and media landscape has a large amount of misinformation and disinformation. UNSMIL needs to stay in control of the narrative and ensure all target audiences are informed as much as possible about the process and the ways to be involved.

We are looking for 2 experienced and creative Online Volunteers who will support our communications team with the development of a series of 10 social media videos ( 5 per volunteer) to support the political process in Libya and other campaigns. In close collaboration with the communications team, the Online Volunteers will: - proposing ideas and writing scripts in Arabic and English - create video including for social media - creating graphics to support the videos and communications around them - sourcing video and photos - creation of animations and other production requirements - must be able to edit video content

The Online Volunteer will be provided with some material and other sources to develop the videos content as required and available. For close coordination and discussion, the Online Volunteer is expected to be available for calls via Zoom/Microsoft Teams.

This assignment provides Online Volunteers with an opportunity to develop and strengthen their skills in communication, networking within the communications team and other learning experiences.

Candidates should have professional or at least advanced experience in graphic design and video editing, and have the software to be able to do this work. Candidates should have a good knowledge of social and other media. Familiarity with the political, social and economic context of this assignment is highly desired. In addition, candidates should have excellent analytical and good writing skills and be able to draft in English and Arabic. Candidates will be asked to provide examples of previous graphic design and video work before being appointed.
