Title : Consultant Filmmaker for the Reforsa Hamutuk Project
Duty Station : Timor Leste
Report to : Project Officer
Duration : January to March 2022
Background
Reforsa Hamutuk (the Tetum phrase for "Stronger Together") is a 30-month program supported by the European Union with the overall objective of promoting social inclusion and economic development for women survivors and victims of violence in Timor-Leste. In this project, Hivos and co-beneficiaries, Forum Komunikasaun Ba Feto Timor-Leste (Fokupers) and Asosiasaun Chega! Ba Ita (ACbit), seek to strengthen women survivors and victims of violence, as well as staff and resource people from local NGOs and CBOs. The project is also conducted to increase the awareness of local communities, local leaders, key stakeholders of the national government, business communities, and broader civil society to improve the provision of support for 25,000 Timorese women survivors and victims of violence, including survivors of past conflict and gender-based violence, and their families. Focusing on the seven districts of Ainaro, Baucau, Dili, Ermera, Liquica, Manufahi, and Oecusse, this project was designed to complement ongoing initiatives by the government and civil society organizations (CSOs) to assist survivors in prevention, access to justice, and advocacy.
As part of the project, Hivos is seeking a consultant filmmaker to produce three short films to be screened in the project's focus districts. The short films will focus on the economic and social inclusion of women survivors and victims of violence. The films will then be screened in local communities as an effort to strengthen public awareness of the extent and impact of conflict and gender-based violence on women, as well as to strengthen public and government support for their economic and social inclusion.
