The International Science Council (ISC), in collaboration with the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) and partners, is implementing a pilot project to develop a Media Toolkit based on the Hazard Information Profiles (HIPs). HIPs provide scientifically grounded, standardized definitions of hazards and are widely used by technical agencies. However, there is a recognized need to translate this knowledge into accessible, media-oriented formats.
The consultancy is designed for a junior to mid-level professional with experience in journalism, media relations, or science communication. Direct experience with disaster risk reporting is a big advantage.
