Call for artists (pdf in English and French)

For this campaign, we are looking to partner with illustrators, graphic designers, or visual artists  to develop 5 graphic novels about women-identified changemakers and their experiences of gender-based violence.

Call for video animators (pdf in English and French)

For this campaign, we are looking to partner with video animators and/or video animation agencies to produce a short video (2-3 minutes) about women-identified changemakers and their experiences of gender-based violence. The inspiration for this video will be the stories of these changemakers as featured in five graphic novels.

Hivos partners with Chouf

Identifying changemakers

The campaign aims to bring widespread attention to the challenges faced by women-identified persons in Tunisia and to compel meaningful changes on a national level. It is part of a larger Hivos-led initiative to support women-identified frontrunners and changemakers in four target countries: Egypt, Tunisia, Zimbabwe, and Kenya. To do so, Hivos is collaborating with gender organizations and artists/creatives to implement a unique digital advocacy campaign in each of the four target countries which focuses on an urgent issue facing women-identified changemakers.
