TERMS OF REFERENCE: PRODUCTION OF TRACE KENYA PROJECT VIDEOS AND HIGH-RESOLUTION PHOTOS - IN KERICHO, NANDI AND BUNGOMA, KENYA

Anthony Chuks December 01, 2021 0 Comments

INTRODUCTION

Solidaridad Network is an international solution-oriented civil society organization working through eight regional expertise centres to transform markets to make them more sustainable and inclusive. Solidaridad Eastern and Central Africa, one of the regional centres, is headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya. We bring together supply chain players and engage them with innovative solutions to improve production, ensuring the transition to a sustainable and inclusive economy that maximizes the benefit for all. We facilitate the strengthening of local capacity in developing countries, support the creation of enabling environments for economies to thrive, and improve market access.

The TRACE Kenya project contributes to economic growth and promotes environmental and social standards of 15,000 small-holder coffee farmers (30% women and 10% youth) in Kericho, Nandi and Bungoma counties by growing Kenya’s organic coffee for export. Our approach includes capacity building initiatives and interactive training on innovative organic coffee practices, facilitating access to high yielding and disease resistant coffee varieties and promoting eco-friendly technologies in coffee production.

Adoption of organic agricultural practices will spur development of organic inputs supply chains and innovations as well as lead to improved coffee volumes increasing farmer incomes and creating new job opportunities. In addition, youth will be equipped with the right skills to enable them to pursue econom-ic opportunities on and off the farm in relation to coffee production.

The commercial objective of this project is to develop market access for Kenyan organic coffee in Europe and USA. This translates to premium coffee to global consumers, market expansion for Africa Coffee Roasters EPZ Limited (ACR) and enhanced market for the farmers guaranteeing better incomes and livelihoods. The project strives to create an inclusive, market-driven and sustainable coffee sub-sector that generates increased income opportunities and creates decent jobs for many along the value chain. The project’s ultimate innovation is in the delivery of the first organic certified Kenyan coffee to global consumers.

PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT

The main purpose of this assignment is to produce high-quality video clips and high-resolution photos of coffee farmers under the ‘TRACE Kenya’ project. This assignment will feature smallholder farmers (men & women), who have received training through the project and outline their individual/personal journey/story/experience thus far and how this has or is anticipated to benefit them.

The specific assignment :

i. One (1) film - four (4) minutes-long that will be used to pitch organic coffee from Kenya to potential buyers of both roasted/green coffee beans and for screening during coffee tasting events in Kenya and Europe. This film should feature 2-3 farmers during the harvesting, talking about their own challenges and successes, and their commitment to the next steps of the TRACE Kenya project.

Also, include footage of other parts of the coffee production/process - at the wet mills and roasting (ACR) to demonstrate that the coffee is taken good care of along the entire value chain.

For this, we would want to interview at least six (6) farmers so as to have enough footage to select from when developing the story.

ii. One (1) minute clips portraying each individual farmer (women, youth). The clips will be used on coffee packages for the buyers/consumers to scan a QR code and be connected to the story (and person) behind the coffee they buy.

iii. High quality portrait pictures of all interviewees for use in marketing materials at a later date. The photos should depict the different phases of coffee production and processing.

Close-up portrait of the farmer on his farm

Medium or full-length shots of the farmer on his field and in front of his house

If possible, some playful, fun photos. People hugging, giving high fives, showing the product in the air, etc.

The farmer working the field

The story:

The videos/photos will link the producer (coffee farmers in Kenya) and buyers (and consumers globally). The story will document the ‘Story/Journey of Kenyan Coffee Farmers who are Producing Organic Coffee’ and outline the individuals’ milestones, challenges, motivation, and their commitment to producing coffee that matches the market standards. A final story concept will be co-developed by Solidaridad and the selected videographer/storyteller.
