Consultancy Description -
Advocacy Film Consultant- Gaza strip- 1-Background The Norwegian Refugee
Council (NRC) re-established its presence in the occupied Palestinian territory
(oPt) in January 2009
and is mainly developing
programme activities in the sectors of shelter, education and the provision of
information, counselling and legal assistance (ICLA). The long term objective of
the programme is to contribute to improved protection and living conditions for
refugees and internally displaced persons in the oPt.
The ICLA programme in Gaza seeks to undertake a project to produce a short film that can be screened during advocacy meetings with high level representatives of the international community in the oPt, but will be specifically aimed at high level meetings/briefings to senior officials in the UN or foreign governments in New York, Washington and Geneva. The film will form the visual part of a package of information materials provided by NRC during such briefings so that key advocacy targets can visualize the impact that Israeli government policies and practices in the Access Restricted Area (ARA), or “buffer zone”, has on housing, land and property (HLP) rights of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
2-Services
The overall results from the Film Project to be achieved by the Consultant/s are as follows:
-The production of an appealing high-quality audiovisual short film on housing, land and property (HLP) issues in Gaza, using beneficiaries of legal assistance provided by NRC and their partners as the main subjects.
-The short film will highlight the impact of Israeli policies and practices in the Access Restricted Area (ARA), or “buffer zone”, on Palestinians’ access to their HLP rights
The completed film will be approximately 8-10 minutes in duration, comprised of two parts of approximately 5 minutes each. The first part will focus on HLP violations affecting fishermen in Gaza as a result of the naval blockade and will highlight the confiscation of fishing boats and the arrest and detention of fishermen. The second part will focus on HLP violations affecting farmers and civilians living and/or working within one kilometer of the Israeli security fence. Each part will use a legal case from NRC’s partners to depict the relevant issue and NRC’s beneficiaries will be included as the subject/s.
The Consultant/s responsibilities and duties are as follows:
-The research and the design of a story for each of the two parts.
