The Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs (CCP) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFPs) from full-service TV channels interested in providing services to this project in support of its COVID-19 activities.

The production companies/TV channels contract resulting from this competition will run for a period of one year from the date of execution and may be renewable on an annual basis for additional years, based on performance, resources, and other factors as determined by the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs.

Background

In Bangladesh, the USAID has mobilized support the country’s COVID-19 readiness and response efforts.  This USAID funding will support three priority areas: (1) strengthening infection prevention and control (IPC) measures in health facilities; (2) improving specimen transport and referral systems; and (3) increasing risk awareness communication and outreach.  This builds upon ongoing USAID and other U.S. government investments in the health sector.

Based on the demands of the current situation, we plan to focus our risk communication and community engagement (RCCE) interventions  on frontline healthcare professionals (for example, those accessed through government health structure),  private and public hospital professionals (for example, those accessed through professional medical bodies), and the general public to take mitigation measures by partnering with key associations, such as journalists; medical associations, and influencers (i.e. religious leaders).
