GAIN seeks the services of a creative agency to lead the development of an overarching creative campaign aimed at improving dietary behaviours and consumption of eggs, fruit and high-iron beans among women and young children in Rwanda's western province. The creative campaign will be implemented with the aim to improve dietary diversity by influencing both consumption and behaviours through two main approaches. An SBCC-driven campaign focuses on improving maternal, infant and young child feeding practices—particularly egg consumption—by engaging parents of children under two through ECD and health centres. In parallel, demand-driven campaigns aim to increase consumer acceptance of hybrid eggs at household level and through commercial markets.

Background

GAIN is developing a dedicated approach to job creation and improved livelihoods because transforming food systems for nutrition requires more than increasing the supply of nutritious foods—it also requires improving people’s ability to afford them. Millions of people remain unable to access healthy diets due to low and insecure incomes. Nutritious food value chains already
employ large numbers of people, particularly through small and medium enterprises (SMEs), yet opportunities to intentionally improve job quality, incomes, and livelihoods within these systems are often underutilised. At the same time, the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report highlights agriculture as one of the top-growing industries globally, with the potential to create an estimated 35 million new jobs by 2030. This presents a significant opportunity to shape how these jobs are created and who benefits from them

Background

Nutrition is a national priority in Rwanda’s development agenda. Our Combatting Malnutrition through Sustainable Food Systems (CMRFS) program supports this by strengthening supply chains for nutritious foods like beans. The purpose of this RFP is to engage the services of a qualified organisation in Rwanda to implement a market-based system that increases high iron bean (HIB) production by smallholder farmers and farmer cooperatives in Western Province. This includes, but is not limited to, increasing the acceptability/uptake of improved HIB seeds obtained by farmers through the formal seed system, and strengthening the formal seed system supply chain to ensure consistent farmers’ access to these improved seeds.
The opportunity for this partnership will
•Work with 50 farmer cooperatives to increase adoption of HIB seeds and see the ROI from increased yields
•Establish and strengthen local multiplication of HIB seeds
•Improve last-mile availability of HIB seed varieties.
•Build farmer capacity on best farming practices for HIB seed varieties to improve yields
•Ultimately increase the supply and affordability of HIB seeds within Western Province.
 

Deliverables

BACKGROUND
Climate change impacts nutrients in crops. The years with the largest annual carbon dioxide growth tend to be associated with the strongest El Niño (the warm phase of a natural climate pattern) causing increased land and ocean temperatures and an expansion of global drought areas (NOAA, 2025).
There are two main pathways through which climate change affects nutrition. The first is due to elevated CO2 and the second is due to climate variability and its impacts such as increased temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, droughts, and floods.

BACKGROUND
The purpose of this RFP is to engage services of a qualified organisation with strong expertise in evaluative research in the food systems space to: (1) design the methodology for an eventual evaluation of I-CAN progress and achievements, to be used in the future, and (2) undertake a ‘light touch’ interim assessment of I-CAN progress to date.
Set out below is the proposed timescale for this procurement. It is a guide and whilst the GAIN does not intend to depart from the timetable, it reserves the right to do so at any stage. For all dates, the deadline is 23:59 CET.
