The Danish Red Cross and CARE Denmark are seeking a consultant or journalist, or a team, to create a reportage on the losses and damages caused by cyclone Freddy which hit Malawi in 2023.
In 2023, Danish Red Cross (DRC) and CARE Denmark published the Loss and Damage Policy Paper. To continue the contribution to the loss and damage agenda and the discussions on the operationalisation of the Loss and Damage Fund, DRC and CARE will build on the Loss and Damage Policy Paper 2023, diving into Policy Recommendation 1: Finance needs to be increased significantly and many-fold and include the need for support of long-term resilient recovery. Furthermore, the partners will investigate how scaling up anticipatory and early action can minimize loss and damage with the notion, that to do so, new and innovative funding arrangement should be designed with flexibility to support and enhance pre-arranged funds in anticipation of disasters and support anticipatory action where appropriate.
Whereas the Loss and Damage Policy Paper published in 2023 included several disasters and deep dives of three disasters, the 2024 reportage will focus solely on the tropical cyclone Freddy affecting Malawi in 2023. The format will be that of a multi-media reportage, including both articles and short videos. The outcome will be used to engage policy makers in the loss and damage dialogue before, during and after COP29 in Azerbaijan in November 2024.
The reportage is expected to consist of:
- A briefing paper (around 4 pages text plus graphics, photos etc.)
- 3 pieces/articles for respectively international media, Malawian media, and if possible Danish media – all with text and photos
- 2-3 short videos fitted to social media platforms.
The Consultancy assignment falls into two parts:
- An in-depth data research on loss and damage in Malawi, the impact of having or not having anticipatory action measures in place and the availability of climate financing.
- Production of the mentioned materials, some including “human storytelling” with personal stories for impact
