Tenders are invited for Consultancy for the Technical, Pedagogical and Methodological Redesign of the Emergency Education (EiE) Guide. Closing Date: 19 May 2026 To technically, pedagogically, and methodologically update the NRC Emergency Education booklet by segmenting it by age groups, strengthening the protection approach, and incorporating updated content on risk prevention and socio-emotional skills, ensuring its alignment with the standards defined by the INEE (National Institute for Educational Evaluation), as well as with the cultural particularities of the context, guaranteeing its relevance, accessibility, and adaptability for children and adolescents affected by humanitarian crises. This update should include recommendations on the booklets design for the two identified age groups. Specific objectives include: To adapt the content of the booklet pedagogically and didactically by segmenting it by age cycles, adopting a trauma-informed care approach, and adjusting language, activities, and levels of complexity, ensuring its relevance to the different stages of development of children and adolescents. Strengthen the protection and risk prevention approach by incorporating an empowerment focus and updated content on context-related risks (recruitment, trafficking, digital risks, and exposure to explosive devices), as well as clear guidance on protection pathways and safe behaviors. The booklet should integrate the community self-protection approach with the child and adolescent protection approach. Maintain and strengthen cross-cutting approaches to inclusion, gender, ethnicity and diversity, ensuring equitable representation in content and adaptation of material to cultural and territorial contexts and populations with special educational needs during humanitarian crises. Optimize the pedagogical accessibility of the material by reducing the textual load, strengthening visual resources considering the needs of children and adolescents who, despite their age, do not have consolidated foundational skills, incorporating active methodologies, and developing complementary tools such as guides for facilitators and reinforcement for parents and caregivers. Ensure the technical quality and compliance with legal standards of the material, through source review, content traceability, and adherence to copyright standards and NRC institutional guidelines.
