Scope of Work
Consultant for Digitalize Parenting Module
We See Equal Project
1. Background
Save the Children (SC) is a leading, private child-focused non-governmental alliance of 30-member organizations that works in 120 countries throughout the world. Save the Children has worked in Indonesia since 1976 to promote health and nutrition, education, child protection, livelihoods, and emergency preparedness and response.
Start from February 2018, Save the Children through support from Procter and Gamble (P&G) developed a program to promotes gender equality as right and a healthy lifestyle for school age girls and boys in 2 districts of West Java; Kabupaten Bandung and Kabupaten Cianjur. Gender inequalities and stereotypes affect everyone and are only resolved by involving both sexes. Gender equality awareness and sensitization is a building block to ensure girls and boys make healthier choices and live more fulfilling lives.
Changes in understanding and behavior that are expected to occur at the student level in terms of gender equality will be more achievable if all levels around students also have the same understanding and behavior, including at the level of parents. In connection with this, it is deemed necessary to have an intervention to increase the capacity of parents in terms of non-violent and gender-equal care, the We See Equal Program in this second phase will facilitate training on non-violent and gender-equal parenting for parents of students in assisted schools.
Currently, the module for this training is being developed and it is hoped that it will be completed at least in April-May 2021 so that the training can begin in June-Jyli 2021 onwards. The module that is being developed is designed to be delivered face-to-face considering the prevailing health protocols and assuming the Covid-19 pandemic will end eventually. However, taking into account other situations in the development of this pandemic, which could remain as it is today or even get worse and taking into account the time availability of the program, the time availability of parents as potential trainees, health protocols that may become more stringent, We See Equal Program intends to try other strategies that can be applied so that what is the content of this Non-Violent and Gender Equal Parenting Training can still be conveyed to parents of students even during a pandemic. One alternative strategy is to convert this form of training from face-to-face training to virtual / online training but still allow participants to participate in an interactive and participatory manner.
2. Objectives
The activity aims:
- Availability of training modules on Non-Violence and Gender Equality Care in the form of online interactive multimedia (applications/e-learning platforms/other forms)
- There is an opportunity for the We See Equal Program and assisted schools to continue to deliver content on Non-Violence and Gender Equal Care Training in two ways (offline and online) depending on the situation later
