Tenders are invited for Media Campaign to Advertise the Amendment of the Agricultural. Please submit the proposal (separate technical & financial offer) and requested documents by inhaled envelopes to the Palestinian Farmers Union headquarters (al-Bireh, close to the representative office of the Netherlands) no later than 16/2/2025 3:00 clock. Tender Description: In partnership with Oxfam, the Palestinian Farmers Union (PFU) is implementing a project titled PVP Power of Voices Partnership, Fair4All" that aims to increase the accountability of government, responsiveness, and fairness through implementing better mechanisms related to agriculture policies that will achieve farmer aspirations and rights. This project involves three partners: The Rural Women Development Society (RWDS), Palestine Trade Center (Pal Trade) and The Coalition for Accountability and Integrity (AMAN). PFU is also implementing another project in partnership with Oxfam titled: Women, youth and other SSPs increase benefits in the fresh vegetable value chain as change agents with the support of the Government of the Kingdom of Belgium, through the Directorate-General for Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid. This project involves two partners: The Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committee (PARC) and the Rural Women Development Society (RWDS). The project aims at making the fresh vegetable value chain more inclusive, fair and sustainable. CONTEXT Fresh vegetable farming plays a vital role in the Palestinian agricultural economy, providing employment and income to many farmers and their families. However, Palestinian farmers face numerous challenges, including limited access to water and fertile land due to Israeli occupation policies and restrictions on movement and market access, which hinder the export of their produce. Additionally, fresh vegetable prices in Palestine fluctuate due to weather conditions, transportation costs, and market demand. These price fluctuations often result in significant financial losses for farmers and can also lead to food insecurity for Palestinian families who struggle to afford fresh vegetables. The absence of an effective legal framework further exacerbates these challenges, as it fails to protect farmers rights and ensure their fair representation in policy-making processes. The Agricultural Councils Law, approved by the Palestinian government, aims to establish agricultural councils that will represent farmers interests, enhance access to resources, and promote sustainable agricultural development. However, the law is still awaiting final approval from the President. The delay in signing the law prolongs the hardships faced by Palestinian farmers, limiting their access to land and resources and exposing them to unstable market conditions. To address this, the Palestinian Farmers Union (PFU) is launching an advocacy campaign to mobilize public and political support and urge the President to sign the law. This initiative aims to protect farmers rights and strengthen the resilience of the agricultural sector. Tender Link : https://www.jobs.ps/en/tenders
