Expression of Interest (EOI)-Animation Services
UNICEF works in 190 countries and territories to protect the rights of every child. UNICEF has spent 70 years working to improve the lives of children and their families. Defending children's rights throughout their lives requires a global presence, aiming to produce results and understand their effects.

Introduction.
UNICEF mobilizes goods and services to improve the lives of the most vulnerable children. Rwanda offers a vast and increasing number of traders of essential supplies for children.
Therefore, UNICEF is updating its supplier’s database and hereby invites expression of interest (EOI) from prospective suppliers and service providers.
Each time a specific tender is to be launched; UNICEF will invite shortlisted vendors in the database for that a specific category to submit their bid.
Inclusion in UNICEF’s vendor database does not mean that a company shall be invited in all tenders and does not constitute any contractual relationship between the company and UNICEF; it only means that if included in the database, a company will be given equal consideration in the process of supplier selection.

The main categories to express interest for are mentioned below:
