UNICEF has now issued a Request for Proposals reference to LRPS-2021-9167133 in order to select a qualified institution to provide Impact assessment of UNICEF’s mental health public and supporter engagement campaign initiative. The purpose of this impact assessment study is to gage the effectiveness of the mental health public and supporter engagement campaign to be launched by UNICEF in July 2021. This campaign aims to raise public awareness and address negative perceptions around youth mental health issues while also providing practical tips and knowledge to young people, parents and caregivers on how to detect mental health issues early, how to talk about mental health and where to seek professional help. Advocates and supporters (financial and non-financial) will be mobilized around the campaign cause to multiply the impact of the campaign, including digital advocates, volunteers (online and offline), corporate partners and donors. The market research agency will conduct a public awareness and perception survey prior to and after the campaign to measure the impact on the campaign key audience’s awareness on the importance of mental health as well as their knowledge of and perceptions towards the issue.
