The Global Women's Network for the Energy Transition (GWNET) and the SADC Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (SACREEE) are seeking 13 freelance Communications Consultants to support a Communications Campaign across the Southern African Development Cooperation (SADC) region. 

This initiative aims to

 • Encourage girls (aged 13–15) to explore careers in the energy sector. 

• Empower women professionals already working in the energy sector to advance their careers.

 Each consultant should be based in and responsible for supporting the design of the communications campaign within a particular SADC country, helping tailor and amplify regional efforts locally. 

The 13 targeted SADC countries: Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eswatini, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. The communications campaign is part of the wider project, “Energising Women to Advance the Energy Transition in the SADC Region,” which seeks to empower women from SADC countries in energy. 

The initiative is led by GWNET and SACREEE, with financial support from the Austrian Development Agency (ADA), the operational unit of Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC).
