    Activities And Tasks
    MONITORING OF DIGITAL FOOD MARKETING (COMPONENT A)

    To guide the monitoring and restriction of digital marketing of unhealthy foods and beverages aimed at children and adolescents the proposed methodology will include the WHO CLICK monitoring framework[2], specifically, the first two steps of the CLICK framework where C stands for "Comprehend the digital ecosystem" and L represents "Landscape of campaigns".

    For the latter, proposed methods include the WHO Protocols and Templates[3] for monitoring marketing of unhealthy products to children and adolescents in social media.

    The consultant will be required to undertake a critical analysis and write up of campaigns in Zimbabwe, Tanzania and Uganda of food and beverage brands through nutrient profiling and power analysis and influence of the identified campaigns on social media platforms.

    MARKET SIZING (Zimbabwe and Tanzania only) (COMPONENT B)

    Following standard market analysis procedures, this component entails three parts. Firstly, it involves combining desk research, data collection, and analysis.

    This includes secondary data analysis encompassing import/export statistics, investment reports, company reports of major players, academic papers, NGO reports, and press articles.

    Secondly, it includes analyzing local data such as UNICEF partner data and conducting store audits in formal and informal retail outlets to identify market trends.

    Thirdly, stakeholder consultations with various industry experts and authorities are conducted to gauge market size and value.

    The consultant should ensure that data from these diverse sources are triangulated for a comprehensive analysis, incorporating desk research, available data, and stakeholder insights.

    The consultant will provide detailed guidance document on the application of study methods, and hold a stakeholder event to build capacity in ESAR COs and institutions for digital marketing analysis and food and beverage market sizing.
