Project Synopsis
This project aims to document the role of women peace builders during the Lebanese civil war and the October 17, 2019 revolution/uprising. It also aims at supporting civil society, individual families and women, and national institutions in their collective efforts to seek the truth and move towards reconciliation around the legacy of the protracted periods of the civil war and the recent uprising in the country.
Project Objectives
The documentary developer will contribute to the above objectives by developing two documentaries that will include interviews with women who partook in the civil war, women who have lost members of their families due to the war, as well as women and activists who vigorously participated in the October 2019 uprising.
Scope of Required Services
The AiW is looking for a documentary developer to create two documentaries narrating the peaceful initiatives as well as the economic, social, cultural, and legal burdens bore by women during two historically remarkable periods in Lebanon. The first documentary will cover the civil war period i.e. from 1975 until 1990, whereas the second will explore the uprising of October 2019. Interviews with women who were key activists in both periods, as well as with researchers on the subject matter will be filmed. The women peacebuilders and activists will be identified based on AiW's expertise on the subject matter as well as the literature review and the findings of the focus group discussions. The AiW will be in charge of contacting the selected women and explaining to them the scope of the project.
The AiW will be conducting the research and drafting the narrative that the videographers will film. AiW will brief the video developer on the subject matter and our major findings, providing them with all needed input (background information) on the selected women that they will be featuring in the documentaries.
The AiW will be contacting the women, providing the findings of their research and all information required, as well as assisting the documentary developer throughout the process.
The two short documentaries will be screened through a public event held at LAU. The event will include uncovering the findings as well as shedding light on women peace building initiatives during the Lebanese civil war and the October 17, 2019 revolution.
