Do you practice participatory, creative, and transformative approaches in linking together communities online and offline? Do you regularly identify opportunities for collaboration and research? Are you inclusive in your approaches/keen on ensuring no one is left behind? 

If your organisation said yes to any of the questions above, then you are the organisation we are looking for! 

What are we looking for?  

We are seeking a dynamic learning organisation which will facilitate the linking and learning between Voice grantees and other stakeholders, within and beyond the granted projects. We are accepting proposals spanning 36 months and with a maximum budget of €250,000. 

Linking and learning is at the heart of Voice. We aim to boost the collaboration, connectedness, sharing, listening, learning, creativity, innovation, and application of new knowledge amongst our grantees as well as with the wider community. We hope that this process produces evidence and innovative solutions to catalyse transformative changes for the most marginalised and discriminated groups. 

These are the rightsholders Voice works within Tanzania; 

• People with disabilities;  
• Women facing exploitation, abuse, and/or violence; 
• Age-discriminated groups (elderly & youth); 
• Indigenous people and ethnic minorities; 

The successful organisation will support Voice in implementing its linking and learning component, in close collaboration with the Voice team in Tanzania. The organisation will support Voice grantees in developing their own linking and learning trajectory.  They will promote participation of members of the Voice rightsholder groups, and facilitate building communities of practice around issues and challenges that concern them. They will coordinate an online platform and facilitate offline meetings that supports inclusive collaboration, including community members in geographically remote areas. They will organise events and meetings, develop thought-provoking pieces, and produce creative works in order to amplify the grantees’ voices at the local, national, and regional level.
