Girl Effect Tanzania Jobs 2024Marketing & Communications Manager at Girl Effect
Tanzania
Who we are
Girl Effect is an international non-profit that builds media that girls want, trust and need. From chatbots to chat shows and TV dramas to tech, our content helps adolescent girls in Africa and Asia make choices and changes in their lives.
We create safe spaces for girls, sharing facts and answering questions about health, nutrition, education, and relationships, empowering girls with the skills to negotiate and redefine what they are told is possible “for a girl”.
Our reach is 50 million and counting. And we’re using technology to reach girls at scale so every girl can choose to be in control of her body, her health, her learning and her livelihood.
Because when a girl unlocks her power to make different choices that change her life, it inspires others to do so too. She starts a ripple effect that impacts her family, community, and country.
That’s the Girl Effect.
Background
Girl Effect uses a branded media approach towards delivering behavioural change messaging.
We reach girls across the world, where they are -online and offline, to support them at the critical moments in life when choices around their health, education and economic future need to be made.
We use our expertise in behaviour change science to motivate and equip girls with information and support to help them see a different future for themselves, act on those choices, and drive greater demand for the opportunities and services available to them.
Chhaa Jaa in India, Tujibebe in Tanzania, and Yegna in Ethiopia - are some of our youth brands. They exist across multiple channels - digital (Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, Tiktok, Whatsapp), TV, radio, print and offline. Together, these brands reach millions of young people across Africa and South Asia.
The Brand
Tujibebe is a brand that provides adolescent and young Tanzanian women with the information and the inspiration they need to make choices about their health, learning and livelihood- from setting up a small business and saving for the future, to navigating parenthood and visiting a health centre.
Meaning “let’s lift ourselves up, together” in Swahili, Tujibebe brings young people together to overcome life’s challenges and realise their ambitions. Tujibebe’s content is accessible online whether girls own or borrow a mobile phone - connecting with girls via a radio drama, radio chat show, interactive audio stories, and digital channels.
Our Interactive Voice Response (IVR) line features inspirational stories and advice from female entrepreneurs, top tips and quizzes - girls can call for free using Tanzania’s most extensive network provider, Vodacom.
Tujibebe currently reaches 4.3M people through its radio drama, has 820,000 IVR users, 800,000 web product users and 96,000 girls connected to its social media platforms. We started with a target of 400,000 girls and have reached between 1.7M to 2.3M girls so far.
The Scope
It is an exciting time to be a part of Tujibebe. We are in the process of revamping the brand as we seek to create a household brand that reaches a core audience of adolescent Tanzanian girls and young women (15 - 29 years old), and coupled with funding, we have launched key programmes in key regions in Tanzania addressing barriers and enabling positive behaviours across SRH, routine and HPV immunization uptake, economic empowerment and Early Childhood Development for young parents.
The Marketing Manager will play a pivotal role in raising the profile of the Tujibebe brand among our audience. Working with the digital and production manager and content manager they will ensure audiences know, love and trust our brand to help them to design a future.
