TERMS OF REFERENCE

BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION

UNICEF produces a variety of topical documentation for a diverse spectrum of audiences—including UNICEF personnel, governments, policy makers, development partners, NGOs, universities, schools, children and the public at large—to inform, mobilize and advocate for the rights of children in the Eastern and Southern Africa region.
Ensuring the quality of this documentation requires specialized skills in editing, copy editing and proofreading (hereafter generally only referred to as editing) and writing and the ability to align with UNICEF style and guidelines. The demand for these specialized skills fluctuates based on ESAR needs; when needs arise, the support required exceeds the capacity and scope of the existing ESAR resources.

PURPOSE OF ASSIGNMENT

The purpose of the consultancy is to provide ESAR with long-term editing and writing support from qualified individual consultants. Establishing several such consultancies would contribute towards achievement of results for children by improving the quality of regional evidence available to support child rights advocacy.

PROGRAMME AREA AND SPECIFIC PROJECT AREA

The work relates to the ESARO PPM rolling workplan’s development effectiveness output (country offices have increased capacity for quality planning, programme monitoring, data generation and use, and knowledge management) under the key intervention on knowledge management.

OBJECTIVES

The purpose is for the consultant(s) to assist UNICEF ESAR in the editing and writing of internal and external documents in accordance with UNICEF style guidelines. On an as-needed basis, the consultant(s) will be called upon to support ESAR with key internal and external documents, assuring the highest quality as per UNICEF guidelines.
This includes reviewing for grammar, spelling, redundancy, formatting and consistency, as well as
revising content and reorganizing material, including occasional re-writing or writing. The documents edited by the consultant(s) will result in the production of information packaged and adapted for various audiences, both internal and external, covering studies, research papers, donor reports and key internal meeting reports.

MAJOR TASKS FOR BE ACCOMPLISHED

For each assignment, ESAR and the consultant will agree on the scope and timeline for the relevant editing and/or writing assignment. The consultant will work independently and will be home-based. The interaction between ESAR and the consultant will be by email, other virtual means or phone calls, as appropriate. The availability and willingness to take up an assignment on short notice is important.

Responsibilities of the Consultant:
Perform high-quality and timely substantive editing and/or writing, including:

Review specific documents and ensure consistent style of writing and tone throughout documents.
Restructure, consolidate and/or re-write sections of documents to ensure logical flow and clarity in messages when appropriate.
Correct spelling, punctuation, grammar and syntax mistakes, eliminating repetition and ensuring concise writing.
Ensure any graphics such as tables or figures are clear.
Check tables of content against the respective document.
Check the acronym list against the acronyms used in the document.
Edit footnotes, references and bibliographies for completeness and consistency of style.
Consolidate and produce a write-up based on content inputs and data provided by ESAR when required.
Provide high-quality and timely rapporteur support at key regional events, including:
Ensure accurate notetaking, including capturing of discussions and action points.

Editor

An editor edits or rewrites all copy for continuity, logical arrangement, readability, clarity of expression, internal consistency and impact, keeping the audience in mind.

Copy editor

A copy editor checks the accuracy, internal consistency and logical flow. This includes ensuring grammatical accuracy, and consistency in capitalization, spelling, abbreviations, numbers, calculations, endnotes or footnotes, bibliographies and reference lists, tables of contents, cross references, titles and other sequences, graphs, figures and tables. A copy editor ensures that the text is clearly written. They must watch out for repetitions, clichés and incorrect verb tenses. The copy editor also verifies that all elements of a publication, including the front and back matter, are included and correct. The copy editor ensures that house style is maintained throughout the work.

Proofreader

The proofreader’s primary function is to compare the master copy with the proof. This means that the proofreader compares the first proof (i.e., the layout or design copy in PDF) against the final manuscript (i.e., the document in Microsoft Word) to ensure that all the text in the Word document has been accurately reproduced. They mark any corrections or changes directly onto the page proof and check subsequent versions of the document to ensure that the revisions have been accurately reflected and that no new errors have been introduced. Like a copy editor, a proofreader should have a keen eye for details and sound knowledge of the relevant language. The proofreader should have some knowledge of basic graphic design principles, so that they are able to spot any design issues that are of concern, or that do not correspond to organizational branding guidelines.

Responsibilities of UNICEF:
