How can you make a difference?
Background

These content packages will be used as advocacy tools to push for support with policy makers, media, donors, partners and the public at large, particularly on key priority issues such as Early Childhood Development, Ending Violence against women and children, keeping girls in school and parenting. These high-quality content packages include graphic design packages, advocacy toolkits, human interest stories, animations, social media content, and outreach material etc. that document UNICEF’s work and programming in the country.  Through content generation and dissemination, UNICEF Uganda raises awareness, generates debate and empowers policy makers and the general public to take action for children and women. To meet this requirement the UNICEF Uganda Country Office would like to engage the services of professional and skilled photographers who will be available at short notice to undertake assignments including field visits for documenting UNICEF’s work and programmes.
