Organization
About Bsf
BSF is an international non-governmental organization. Since 2007, in more than 30 countries, BSF has provided access to education, information, and culture for those deprived of it. Through the development of innovative and mobile tools (Ideas Box, Ideas Cube, Kajou cards), tailored content selection, training, and support for field actors, BSF aims to enable everyone, in all circumstances, to live with dignity through better access to knowledge.
CONTEXT
As part of projects aimed at supporting the resilience and empowerment of youth and women, implemented in the Ouaddaï region in eastern Chad, BSF works alongside NRC, Al Barka, Sudan Volunteer Organization, and CRASH to strengthen the resilience of Sudanese refugees and host communities around the Allacha, Metché, and Arkoum camps. This project focuses on strengthening community leadership, providing vocational training for youth (15-25 years old), psychosocial support, educational support, and legal assistance to provide project beneficiaries with the skills and resources needed to transition toward sustainable livelihoods in a protracted crisis context.
Within the consortium, BSF contributes its expertise in creating educational and cultural spaces through the Ideas Box. The Ideas Box is a mobile media library kit that can be deployed in twenty minutes to create a colorful, welcoming, and safe 100-square-meter space, including books, games, and digital and creative equipment. The content of each Ideas Box is unique because it is tailored to the needs of the target audiences. The project aims to install three Ideas Boxes in vocational training centers for youth. Mixed professional training courses will be deployed, combining in-person sessions conducted by Al-Barka and NRC with digital modules accessible via offline devices such as the Ideas Cube. The Ideas Cube is a small server hosting a digital library. Once configured, it provides offline access to thousands of resources (videos, audios...). Following the needs assessment conducted in the field, it was decided to develop two digital learning paths on the themes of “Pastry and Bakery” and “Solar Panel Installation and Repair.”
In this context, BSF seeks to recruit an Arabic-speaking consultant in digital instructional design to develop two interactive training courses on the Moodle platform. Team applications are also welcome in the form of a joint proposal.
OBJECTIVES
The mission involves designing, structuring, and developing two interactive digital training courses on Moodle, potentially using content provided by BSF and its partners (technical documents, videos, lesson plans, diagrams, etc.), as well as sourcing other relevant resources for the modules. The creation of additional content (such as audio dubbing, etc.) may be considered as part of this mission to address any gaps in pedagogical resources. The entire course must be provided in Modern Standard Arabic to facilitate understanding among beneficiaries.
The two courses target Sudanese and Chadian young adults (15–25 years old) with varying literacy levels, in a humanitarian context. They complement in-person training delivered by NRC and Al Barka and should allow learners to validate skills progressively, independently, and in an engaging manner. The courses are not intended to replicate the full in-person training but should cover the key learning outcomes. Therefore, they should be concise and include a limited number of modules (to be defined with the consultant).
