Production Agency for Success Story Development - Mzazi Hodari III Programme

Girl Effect Tanzania seeks to engage a qualified Production Agency to conceptualise, film, edit and deliver three high-quality success story products that demonstrate the impact of the Mzazi Hodari III programme. The agency will work closely with Girl Effect’s Creative Team throughout pre-production, production and post-production to ensure all deliverables align with Girl Effect’s creative, safeguarding and brand standards. Mzazi Hodari III is a one-year extension project focused on improving children’s health by encouraging responsive caregiving, early breastfeeding, and promoting positive parenting behaviors through media content across radio, social media, IVR, and on-the-ground interventions. The goal of Mzazi Hodari III is to increase knowledge and practices around nurturing care for children under three, particularly in areas like early breastfeeding, responsive caregiving, and child health care.
