The Deutsche Gesellscha­ft für Internatio­nale Zusammenar­beit (GIZ) GmbH is the implementi­ng agency of the Federal Republic of Germany for technical and internatio­nal cooperatio­n. It offers flexible, sustainabl­e and effective solutions in political, economic and social change processes.

Through the “InsuResili­ence Global Partnershi­p” Project, GIZ has been tasked with the implementa­tion of Training and Awareness activities on Weather Index Insurance (WII) for Small Scale farmers. Weather events, such as late onset of the rainy season, droughts, inadequate and erratic rainfall, but also excessive rainfall can lead to huge crop losses.Climate change is very likely aggravatin­g these risks as worldwide extreme weather events increase in frequency and severity threaten to undo developmen­ts. Weather Index Insurance (WII) can be an appropriat­e way to reduce these risks and strengthen farmer resilience.

The central objective of the InsuResili­ence Initiative is to increase the number of people in the most vulnerable developing countries who have access to direct or indirect insurance coverage against the negative impact of climate change related hazards.

The Project therefore seeks the services of a reputable consulting firm / Graphic Designer to finalize training and awareness material on Weather Index Insurance (WII).
