Context

This report is the result of a participatory exercise to map and assess the energy system in Angola with a special focus on access to energy in rural areas. Access to affordable and sustainable energy in Angola remains a challenge; less than 45% of the population has access to electricity, with a lower rate in rural areas where wood and charcoal continue to be one of the most used forms of energy. Enhancing off-grid electrification at the community level is key to improve the standards of living of rural households - particularly for women who carry the highest burden of having no access to electricity (e.g. unpaid domestic work to seek alternatives forms of cooking fuel) - as well as to promote agricultural productivity and food security. Agriculture account for more than half of total employment but contribute to nearly 7 per cent of GDP and less than 1 per cent of total export.

Task description

We are looking for 1 Online Volunteer/s who under the guidance of Accelerator Lab Angola Team and in close collaboration with the communications team support us by producing 1 layout and other graphic designs (i.e. infographics) for a report about the energy sector in the country. In particular, the Online Volunteer is asked to: - Create draft design based on requirements and discuss with focal point/ communications team; - Develop the design according to agreed requirements. The design/layout should follow our corporate design guidelines which will be shared with the Online Volunteers in advance. The Online Volunteer/s will have the opportunity to build connections with the team at UNDP Angola and learn about the ways in which graphic design can support visual representation of the existing energy system.
