of:
Title : Consultant of Audiobook
Duty Station : Jakarta,
Indonesia
Report to : Regional Advocacy Officer for Green and
Inclusive Energy
Duration : July to October 2020
Background
Hivos Southeast Asia is an International
non-governmental organization guided by humanist values. It aims at structural
poverty alleviation with a strong focus on civil society building and
sustainable economic development. Hivos Southeast Asia provides financial
support for local NGOs, is active in networking, lobbying and exchanging
knowledge and expertise. Hivos opts for 100 percent renewable energy,
worldwide. Hivos believes energy is a vital driving force for development.
Access to energy can alleviate poverty, improve living conditions and propel
economic development. However, continuing along the fossil fuel route to
harmful climate change will have disastrous effects, especially for developing
countries. Hivos would much rather stimulate sustainable development fueled by
clean energy.
Strategic Partnership Green and Inclusive
Energy is a programme that is initiated by Hivos, supported by the Netherlands’
Government, to enable more civil society organizations to do lobby and advocacy
in the area of Green and Inclusive Energy. The programme was started since
2016, where in Indonesia, it involves three national CSOs as the core team of
the programme, and designed to outreach non-energy CSOs, media, and wider
public, including the Government on Green and Inclusive Energy. The three
national organizations are Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR),
Koalisi Perempuan Indonesia, and Yayasan Lembaga Konsumen Indonesia (YLKI)
which have different target groups and beneficiaries in different areas, mainly
in Central Java and Jakarta.
Considering the project ends this year, Hivos
Southeast Asia plans to enhance our existing written communications products
under SP-GIE. The project has a number of published impact stories,
human-interest stories, discussion reportage, articles and studies. It covers
green and inclusive energy topics from the village, provincial, regional to the
global levels. The pieces also contain information on the works that Strategic
Partnership has developed in Indonesia.
Though the project will end, we expect that
this information will continue to be disseminated more inclusively and
extensively. With an audio component, the information is accessible for people
with visual impairment. Further, it will reach broader audience. We view that
the audiobooks are useful for people who find it more effective and interesting
to learn by listening than reading. It also saves time and is very convenient,
as people can listen to audiobooks while doing other activities anytime and at
any place.
We believe that by providing such information
in different type of media, more people will understand and apply their
understanding into practice. We want to keep increasing public’s awareness on
green and inclusive energy far into the future, and encouraging the
policymakers to take further steps to support energy sector, making green and
inclusive energy to be reality in Indonesia.
To do so, we are seeking a consultant to
produce audiobooks for Strategic Partnership Green and Inclusive program both
