Selection of Consultant/Firm for Developing and Implementing a Communication & Visibility Strategy

Première Urgence Internationale (PUI) is a non-profit, non-political, non-religious international NGO, whose mission is to help populations affected by humanitarian crises by providing them with the skills to take their future back into their own hands, while defending basic human rights, such as those set out in 1948 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. PUI’ projects are currently being carried out in 25 countries by 3,133 collaborators, 207 expatriates and 133 headquarter staff.

Operational in the oPt since 2002, PUI has developed integrated programs to assist Palestinians affected by protection risks. Since October 2023, PUI has redirected its interventions to provide an emergency response to the conflict-affected population with the delivery of a multisectoral integrated response focusing on Primary Health Care (PHC), Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), Multi-purpose cash assistance (MPCA), Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), food security interventions and shelter assistance. PUI is active across the whole Strip thanks to its partnerships with local organizations.

PUI contributes to the humanitarian coordination mechanisms to promote human rights and advocate for the rights of Palestinians locally and internationally.

In the oPt, we seek to continue developing our relationship with Palestinians, urging them to engage and act on their heritage and archaeological sites, to enhance their steadfastness, protect their identity and basic human rights.
