Background
Doria Feminist Fund is a regional feminist fund working across the MENA region, supporting local movements and initiatives through funding and advocacy.

• A refreshed color palette that aligns with our values and goals
• A component library (buttons, cards, sections, etc.)
• Graphic assets and backgrounds that are reusable across multiple pages and new content areas
• Page layout designs for core sections such as Grantmaking, Programs, News
• A design concept for our monthly or quarterly newsletter that aligns with the new website design.
• A visual identity guideline for use across social media channels and the website, ensuring consistency and adaptability. All visual solutions should support multilingual content (English, Arabic, French), with consideration for RTL layout and mobile devices.

Consultant Profile
We welcome applications from both individual consultants and design agencies.
The ideal consultant will have:
• Proven experience in digital design, particularly for nonprofit, feminist, or socially driven organizations
• A portfolio that demonstrates strong visual storytelling, user experience design, and multilingual layout sensibility
• Strong communication and collaborative skills—able to listen to our needs, study our current materials, which we will be providing, and bring fresh, informed perspectives

Introduction
The Graça Machel Trust (GMT) is a Pan African women’s rights, leadership and advocacy organization contributing to the socioeconomic development of the African continent. Our vision at the Graça Machel Trust is a prosperous Africa in which women and girls drive the inclusive social, political and economic transformation of the continent.

Scope of work
The Trust requires the services of a professional production company to partner with, to produce a series of documentaries telling stories of African women who have made big, long-lasting impact in different sectors.

Scope
The Graça Machel Trust is curating a multimedia collection of Pan-African women thought-leaders, freedom fighters, innovators, and cultural custodians (collectively called stalwarts) who share their stories and those of their women heroes. This project acknowledges and pays homage to African women who have made significant contributions to humanity and educates audiences on their inspiring legacies of service.

The project will also see contemporary Pan-African women of both the continent and the diaspora who are in many ways descendants of Mrs. Machel’s generation who fought for freedom. The idea would be to link the younger generation’s freedoms to the sacrifices of previous ones and displaying an unleashed potential and a carrying of the baton forward. The content will feature African women and Afro-descendants alike to highlight the connections between Black Women’s stories globally as well as their mutual influence.

The request
For an experienced production company that has a network or contacts across the continent to come onboard as production partner:

To pitch a creative approach to the docuseries – the production company is welcome to propose very specific ways they would like to approach and package the content.

To develop a budget to produce the pilot series – based on your creative approach and indicate an approximate timeframe that it would take to produce the pilot series.

Please indicate your connection to broadcasters/VOD streamers on the continent/globally, if you have any.
