Materials Development Consultant –CBO Community Guide (PSEA │ AAP │ CFM)

1. Background

The Musanada Project works with 20 Women-led  Community‑Based Organizations (CBOs) across the West Bank to strengthen community‑level safeguarding. Internal SEA risk analysis, UNICEF global PSEA standards and the Sanad Network guidance all confirm that CBO staff need one concise Arabic guide—instead of multiple dense manuals—covering:

• PSEA principles & survivor‑centred code of conduct;
• Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) – how communities influence and monitor aid;
• Complaints & Feedback Mechanisms (CFMs) – safe, confidential reporting paths;
• Gender, disability and adolescent inclusion.

2. Purpose

Develop a practical, single “CBO Guide” in Arabic that merges existing PSEA, AAP and CFM resources into a user‑friendly, printable / digital tool that CBO staff—and adolescent peer‑educators—can use directly with their communities. No new technical standards are required; the task is to simplify, harmonise and package approved materials, ensuring community feedback shapes the final draft.

  3. Tasks & Methodology

Total: 20 working days.

4. Deliverables & Payment

Deliverable

All deliverables must meet UNICEF branding, accessibility standards, and be ready for low‑cost local printing.
