The Media Foundation for Africa (MFWA), in partnership with Reporters sans Frontières (RSF) and Fondation Hirondelle (FH), invites experienced consultants to develop and produce a compelling and high-quality documentary under our European Union-funded project: “Promote and Protect Democracy by Safeguarding Freedom of Opinion and Expression and Combating Mis/Disinformation in Guinea-Bissau.”
As part of efforts to document and amplify the 18-month initiative impact, we are looking for experienced and creative consultants to tell the story in an engaging and visually compelling manner. The documentary will highlight key achievements and captures the perspectives of beneficiaries. It will also showcase efforts to strengthen media freedom and counter mis/disinformation and hate speech in Guinea-Bissau. The assignment will be carried out over 5-7 weeks during the final phase of the project.
The ideal individual or team should meet the following criteria:
- Proven experience in documentary production;
- Strong storytelling and visual communication skills;
- Experience working on development or media-related projects;
- Familiarity with Guinea-Bissau or the West African context (an asset);
- Proficiency in Portuguese and/or English.
Interested qualified consultants should submit:
- Expression of Interest (EOI) outlining relevant expertise and approach.
- Curriculum Vitae (CV) detailing qualifications and experience.
- Brief technical proposal, including proposed methodology, workplan and fees.
All applications should be sent to [email protected] with a copy to [email protected] on or before Monday, April 20, 2026. However, applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and the process may close once a suitable candidate is selected. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
