| Overview : UNDP Sweden is looking for a consultant responsible for updating and creating new content of the UNDP publication Blir världen bättre? (Is the world getting better?) in line with the newly launched digital knowledge platform blirvarldenbattre.se As a part of the UN development agenda, UNDP Sweden published the book Blir världen bättre? for the first time in 2005. The publication uses up-to-date statistics to describe human development in the world over the past few decades. The book describes the progress of the Millennium Development Goals and the Global Goals and how they light a path to a sustainable future for both people and planet. Blir världen bättre? has become a flagship UNDP product and much-appreciated teaching material among both teachers and students. Since 2005 the book has been published in seven updated and revised editions and hard copies have been distributed to schools all over Sweden as teaching material. In March 2022, an interactive remake of the book was launched in the form of the Blir bärlden bättre? digital knowledge platform to further stimulate learning on global development and capture the attention of today’s youth. The idea is that the updated version of the book will work as a complement to the digital platform by providing more in-depth analysis and storytelling about global development and the various topics that the platform addresses. The two products (digital platform and book) will complement each other and constitute the two “legs” of the Blir världen bättre? learning package. The book will primarily be produced in digital form as a downloadable and interactive PDF that can be easily integrated with blirvarldenbattre.se but will also be printed in traditional book form. Please submit your proposal by email to stina.amnebjer@undp.org no later than Sunday 24 April 2022. |
