Who We Are

Girl Effect is an international non-profit that builds media that girls want, trust and need. From chatbots to chat shows and TV dramas to tech, our content reaches millions of girls in Africa and Asia to make choices and changes in their lives. Igniting their confidence to act differently at a time that can define their future. We create safe spaces for girls, sharing facts and answering questions about health, nutrition, education, relationships, etc. And we use innovative technology so we can reach girls at scale. We arm girls with the skills to negotiate and redefine what they are told is possible, so every girl can choose to be in control of her body, her health, her learning and livelihood. When a girl unlocks her power to make different choices that change her life, it inspires others to do so too. She starts a ripple effect that impacts her family, community, and country. That’s the Girl Effect.

Background

Girl Effect has developed a suite of HPV and immunization technical guidelines under its Social and Behaviour Change (SBC) programming portfolio, in partnership with global and national health stakeholders, including Gavi, UNICEF, and national EPI departments (Essential Programme for Immunization).

These guidelines are highly technical documents intended for use by:

National EPI managers
Immunization programme implementers
SBC and communication specialists
Technical partners and donors

While the content has been technically strengthened and rewritten to reflect global best practice, the current outputs require professional design, formatting, visualization, and production-ready layout development to ensure they are:

Visually engaging and easy to navigate
Consistent across a suite of 9+ technical documents
Clear in presenting complex SBC and immunization concepts
Suitable for both print and digital use
Aligned with Girl Effect’s brand and accessibility standards

The design partner will play a critical role in transforming technical content into high-quality, user-friendly publications that can serve as technical guidebooks for the global community of practice for vaccination and immunization.

What we are looking for

The objective of this consultancy is to engage a creative design agency or studio to lead the visual design, layout, and production preparation of a suite of HPV technical guidelines and related summary documents.

The consultancy will ensure that all materials are:

Professionally designed and publication-ready
Visually consistent across the full guideline suite
Easy to understand for technical and non-technical audiences
Enhanced with infographics, diagrams, and visual storytelling elements
Aligned with Girl Effect’s brand identity and global accessibility standards

Scope of Work

The design agency/consultant will undertake the following integrated tasks:

1. Visual Design and Layout of HPV Guidelines (9 Documents)

Design and format nine HPV technical guidelines into professionally structured publications, including:

Full publication layout design (print and digital versions)
Consistent template application across all 9 guidelines
Clear visual hierarchy for technical content
Formatting of tables, frameworks, and tools
Integration of navigation systems (headings, sections, call-outs, highlights)

2. Copywriting, Editing and Content Refinement

Provide light-to-moderate copywriting and editorial support to ensure all materials are:

Clear, concise, and accessible to EPI and SBC audiences
Consistent in tone, terminology, and structure across all documents
Free of repetition, ambiguity, or overly technical language where not required
Structured for readability and usability in real-world programme settings

Specifically, the consultant will:

Refine and edit existing text for clarity and flow
Strengthen headlines, section titles, and key messages
Simplify complex SBC and immunization language where needed
Ensure consistency in terminology across all 9 guidelines
Align writing style with practical “field usability” (action-oriented, not academic)
Adapt tone for mixed audiences (technical + programme implementers)

Note: This is not full content rewriting (which has been completed in the technical ToR), but editorial strengthening, clarity improvement, and communication polishing integrated into design.

3. Development of Visual Assets and Infographics

Translate complex technical content into visual formats, including:

Infographics for SBC concepts and behaviour pathways
Diagrams of caregiver journeys and service delivery pathways
Visual frameworks (planning tools, message frameworks, implementation models)
Iconography systems for navigation and comprehension
Process diagrams for technical guidance (e.g. zero-dose strategies)

4. Design of Comprehensive Summary Guideline

Design a high-quality executive summary guideline that:

Distills key insights from all 9 guidelines
Uses strong visual storytelling and minimal dense text
Includes key frameworks, models, and action points
Is highly accessible for decision-makers and non-technical audiences

5. Design System and Publication Consistency

Develop a unified design system across all outputs, including:

Typography hierarchy and formatting system
Colour palette aligned with Girl Effect branding
Icon and illustration system
Layout grid and template structure
Consistency rules for scaling future guideline design work

6. Collaboration and Iteration

Work closely with the Girl Effect programme and technical teams
Participate in structured review and feedback cycles
Ensure alignment between content intent, copy clarity, and visual design
Incorporate iterative refinements across all documents

Deliverables

9 fully designed HPV technical guidelines (publication-ready PDFs) within 10 working days
1 designed comprehensive summary guideline
Lightly copyedited and refined final text across all documents
Full suite of infographics, diagrams, and visual assets
Design system/style guide for the guideline suite
Editable source files (InDesign / Figma or equivalent)
Print-ready and digital-optimised versions

The ideal design agency or consultant will have:

Strong publication production capability at scale

High proficiency in tools such as Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Figma (or equivalent)
Experience delivering fast-turnaround donor/public health reports
7–10+ years of experience in publication design or creative communications

Highly Desirable:
