Consultant for developing Social and Behavior Change Communication Toolkit
Terms of Reference
Winrock International is currently seeking proposals from qualified individual consultant to develop the Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) Toolkit for USAID Thailand Counter Trafficking in Persons (USAID Thailand CTIP) project
Background
As a source, transit and destination country, Thailand faces multiple manifestations of trafficking in persons (TIP). TIP in Thailand is fueled by demand for low-skilled labor in sectors such as agriculture and fishing, tourism, and construction, and is enabled by deep-rooted social discrimination, as well as a lack of regulation or enforcement. The USAID Thailand Counter Trafficking in Persons (USAID Thailand CTIP) initiative (2017-2022) aims to reduce TIP and better protect the rights of trafficked persons in Thailand by reducing demand and incentives for using trafficked labor, empowering at-risk populations to safeguard their rights, and strengthening protection systems for survivors. One key element under the USAID Thailand CTIP project strategy is working on Social Behavioral Change Communication activities. Over the past four years, the project worked with numerous partners and local grantees to ensure the creation and understanding of effective communications in order to amplify and influence changes toward migrant workers while shifting the public discourse of Thais around migration and the policies that support this.
Objectives
Winrock International is looking for a consultant to develop a Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) Toolkit with the objective to:
Produce an SBCC toolkit based on the needs and recommendations from the target beneficiaries, (e.g. migrant workers, service providers, government organizations)
Responsibilities
An array of outputs looking at and working with SBCC in the project were created over the past four years under the USAID Thailand CTIP project. These outputs will become the basis of a toolkit that is geared towards how NGO’s and CBO’s can conduct SBCC activities on TIP in Thailand. In order to create this Toolkit, the consultant will gather the voices and opinions of the potential users (NGOs, RTG, service providers etc.) and migrants themselves through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and in-depth interviews, ensuring that the Toolkit is user centric and built from the ground up.
Following this, the consultant will work closely with the USAID Thailand CTIP project to create an SBCC Toolkit (in Thai and English) based of the materials already existing under the project while addressing the needs and opinions that came out of the above FGDs and interviews. The final product will be user friendly and include high quality design and layout, targeting organizations who are working on TIP and forced labor and want to understand and utilize SBCC in their programs. The final format of the SBCC toolkit could be a digital document, web-based interactive platform, and/or another format as per the findings.
