Call For Applications

Established in 1951, IOM is the leading inter-governmental organization in the field of migration and works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants. 

The IOM Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP) in Bangkok, Thailand is covering 40 countries across the Asia and Pacific region. The key responsibility of the ROAP is to formulate regional strategies and plans of action and to provide programmatic and administrative support to the countries within the region. 

Context: 

The Climate Mobility Innovation Lab (CMIL), hosted by the International Organization for Migration (IOM), was established to address the nexus between human mobility and climate change. The Lab fosters innovation and partnerships to tackle the complex challenges posed by climate change and human mobility across the Mediterranean, Africa, Asia-Pacific and beyond.

Central to this work is the Risk Index for Climate Displacement (RICD), an operational foresight tool that enhances understanding of climate-induced displacement dynamics — including its drivers, triggers, and tipping points. The RICD supports the identification of current and future displacement hotspots and trends, providing actionable insights for policymakers and investors.

CMIL is also implementing the Climate Catalytic Fund (CCF) — a blended finance mechanism that mobilises rapid and flexible match-funded grants to translate data-driven risk insights from the RICD into concrete, locally led adaptation action. RICD and CCF are intrinsically linked, as the CCF targets funding to the most at-risk locations and relevant sectors, informed by RICD risk analytics and climate mobility hotspot mapping.

To support the visibility and impact-showcasing efforts of the RICD and CCF, under a project funded by the European Union, IOM is seeking a video production consultant. The Partner will coordinate with four country offices in the Asia-Pacific region to collect multimedia content for the development of country-based documentaries and a combined documentary of no more than ten minutes. Working under the guidance of the CMIL team, in close coordination with the IOM Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP) Media and Communications Unit, the consultant will serve as the main video focal point.
