Scope of Work – Youth Grow Activity (YGA)
YGA Achievements Video Production Consultant
About Youth Grow Activity
Youth Grow Activity (YGA) is a U.S. Government-funded initiative working with national partners in Jordan to help youth aged 10-29 build practical skills and connect to income opportunities; leading to stable communities in Jordan by supporting lawful work, productive routines, and positive engagement for the youth themselves.
Background
across all 12 governorates of Jordan, YGA's strategy is built on two pillars. The first is direct youth engagement: delivering upskilling activities, income-generating opportunities, and positive engagement through Ministry of Youth centers and trusted national institutions, in alignment with Jordan's Economic Modernization Vision and the labor needs of national priority sectors. The second pillar is institutional strengthening: providing technical assistance to national partners within Jordan's youth support system, including the Ministry of Youth, MODEE, ASEZA, KAFD, JREEEF, the Crown Prince Foundation, RSS, AQAC, and GOJ’s universities, ensuring these institutions can deliver and sustain youth-serving programs and policies long after the program concludes.
To document and communicate these results, YGA seeks to engage an individual Video Production Consultant to produce a high-quality video capturing YGA’s achievements and their impact on youth in Jordan, national priorities, and joint interests of US and Jordan. The video will be reviewed by YGA’s communications team and submitted for approval by the U.S. Embassy Public Affairs Section (PAS) prior to finalization.
Purpose of the Assignment
The Video Production Consultant will be responsible for the end-to-end production of a three-minute achievements video for YGA. The video will document real program results, capture youth voices and success stories, and communicate YGA’s impact in a compelling format aligned with YGA’s messaging guidance and U.S. Government branding standards. The video will be a primary communications asset for YGA and the U.S. Embassy, intended for use across official channels and strategic communications contexts.
