    CONSULTANCY – RFP to carry out a ‘Research on Policy, Legislation and Stakeholder Landscape in Relation to International Exotic Pets Trade from Africa

    Scope of Requirement
    Introduction
    World Animal Protection works directly with animals and with the people and organizations that can ensure animals are treated with respect and compassion and her campaigns effectively combat the world’s most intense and large-scale animal welfare issues. World Animal protection brings about lasting change by: helping people understand the critical importance of good animal welfare; encouraging nations to commit to animal-friendly policies and practices; building the scientific case for the better treatment of animals, and; encouraging a worldwide movement towards better animal welfare.In our 2020 strategy, we target to improve the welfare of 100,000 wild animals globally through our wildlife campaigns. One of the projects under the Animals in the Wild Programme area addresses the suffering of wild animals traded as exotic pets from Africa. Everyday thousands of animals are being taken from the wild and bred in captivity to supply the booming international market demand for exotic pets. Animals suffer at every stage of the trade chain; during capture, handling, transportation, and to their destination not forgetting issues in breeding and the associated poor husbandry, with many pronounced dead along the chain. The trade not only raises animal welfare concerns but also threatens emergence and spread of zoonotic diseases like Ebola and Marburg viruses, in addition to impacting the biodiversity. Africa is playing a critical role in this trade chain, being the main source of these animals. Some of the animals most traded are Python regius (Ball pythons) from West Africa and Psittacus erithacus (African Grey Parrot); regardless of this species being up listed to Appendix 1 by CITES.
    For that matter, Africa has an important role of disrupting the supply of exotic pets for international trade and World Animal Protection will set up campaign to educate, lobby and influence different stakeholders at national and regional levels, general public, Non-governmental Organizations and other relevant stakeholders. Africa regional economic blocks have been identified as one of key stakeholders of target in disrupting this trade. This consultancy is aimed at establishing baseline information from which to benchmark future efforts in eradication of exotic pet’s trade in Africa. To achieve this, there is need to understand the policy, legislation environment and existing regional agreements around the exotic pet’s trade at national and regional level and World Animal Protection seeks to understand the above together with the existing administrative frame works prevailing in East, West and Southern African regions.

  • Request for Proposal – Consultancy for Effective Delivery of Disaster Risk Management for the Animals in Kenya

    Request for Proposal – Consultancy for Effective Delivery of Disaster Risk Management for the Animals in Kenya

    Scope of Requirement
    World Animal Protection is looking to appoint a consultant to satisfy the Terms of Reference requirements for the effective delivery of disaster risk management for the animals in Kenya.
    TERMS OF REFERENCE
    INTRODUCTION
    The Sendai Framework
    The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction presents a big step forward from its predecessor the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA). The focus has moved from disaster management to disaster risk management, with the priorities for action converging on reducing risk, enhancing resilience and preventing disaster-related losses including protection of people’s productive assets. In its Priorities for Action the Sendai Framework emphasizes that DRR efforts must first and foremost address the risks faced by the poorest and those most vulnerable to disasters. To do this, under the Priorities for Action, Priority 3 – Investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience, the Sendai Framework recommends to: Strengthen the protection of livelihoods and productive assets, including livestock, working animals, tools and seeds (Para 30.p); and, Strengthen and promote collaboration and capacity-building for the protection of productive assets, including livestock, working animals, tools and seeds; (Para 31.f)
    Sendai implementation will be a national enterprise addressing local impacts of global problems. Monitoring of Sendai implementation will take place at the national level. Countries do not seek to achieve the Sendai indicators but rather the Sendai targets. The indicators are used to provide a globally comparable measurement of the degree to which policy and operational action has led to the achievement of the Sendai targets. The two indicators that use ‘the number of animals killed due to disasters’ as source data are related to target B (reduce the number of people affected by disasters) and target C (reduce the economic costs associated with disasters). In addition, Target E relates to countries having disaster risk reduction strategies by 2020, an animal emergency disaster management plans sit under this target.
    The Animals in Disaster (AiD) initiative
    The Animals in Disaster (AiD) initiative will assist Kenya to reduce animal deaths following disasters and measure progress towards achieving Sendai Framework Targets B and C and E. The AiD initiatives is also linked to key policies such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Climate Change Adaptation (CCA), Livestock Development Strategy for Africa (LiDeSA) and the Africa Animal Welfare Strategy (AWSA) as well as national policies around livestock and disaster management and will therefore also be used to implement and report progress around these policy instruments.
    OBJECTIVES OF THE CONSULTANCY
    Overall Objective
    Animals are critical to their owners for their commodity value and as productive assets. They require protection and care to preserve their productive quality. Disaster risk management has remained one of Kenya’s enduring development challenges for decades with droughts and flooding being the most devastating. This has had major impact on development including reducing community livelihood support options. As a country, the Sendai framework provides significant guidance to disaster risk management. To assess disaster management for all animals (livestock, working animals, companion animals, wildlife and aquatic animals) there is need to review the policy and legal framework in relation to the institutional arrangement for effective animal disaster management delivery.
    The overall objective of the consultancy will be to make recommendations on effective delivering of disaster risk management in the animal resource sector. This will necessitate a review of current policy, legislation and institutional arrangements in the devolved system of governance in Kenya. In addressing the overall objective, the review will also make recommendations on how best to implement the National Disaster Management Policy and National Disaster Fund 2018 for animal emergencies.
    This will support one of the outputs of the AiD Initiative which is an Action Plan to address legislation gaps and make recommendations around institutional arrangements that will improve the effectiveness and coordination of animal emergencies disaster[i] preparedness, response and early recovery programmes in Kenya.
    Specific Objective
    The specific objectives of the consultancy are as follows:

    To carry out a comparative analysis of the successes, challenges and lessons learned around managing Rift Valley Fever and Pestis des Pestis (animal diseases emergencies) and Floods (animal disaster emergencies) in the devolved system of governance compared to the central system of management.
    To make recommendations on the National Disaster Risk Management Bill 2018 (included therein the National Disaster Risk Management Fund) for effective implementation of animal disaster management.
    To make recommendations for the Directorate of Veterinary Services on effective animal disaster management in the devolved system of Government in Kenya

    Animal Emergencies

    Animal emergencies are sub-divided into Animal Disease Emergencies (animals are the emergency)
    and Animal Disaster Emergencies (animals are in the emergency).

    Animal Disease Emergencies
    Animal disease emergencies, like transboundary diseases, have the same characteristics as other natural disasters. For instances, some diseases are sudden and unexpected, and may cause major socio-economic consequences that impact across the nation (and may even threaten food security), may endanger human life and requires a rapid national response.
    Animals Disasters Emergencies
    On the other hand, animals in disasters require protection to safe guard against loss of the animals, loss of animal genetic diversity, establishment of diseases, suffering of the animals, and physiological stress and loss of livelihoods for the animal owners.
    METHODOLOGY
    This will be mainly a desk study of secondary data/information sources. The Consultant may need to undertake key informant interviews to validate his/her initial findings. The consultant will also undertake a cost benefit analysis on the delivery of RVF, PPR and Floods emergencies in the central and devolved system of governance.
    The secondary sources are expected to include the following: regional and national policies, strategies and legislation; documented administrative and institutional arrangements; national, regional and international reports and relevant studies. The Consultant will be expected to consult and reflect on regional and international initiatives, debates and trends related to DRM delivery good-practices particularly those under the auspices of e.g. the OIE, AU-IBAR, RECs, and other relevant organizations where appropriate.
    OUTPUTS
    The outputs of the consultancy will include the following:

    Draft Report in both electronic and hard copies
    Review Meeting of the draft report
    Draft report that covers the following:
    Review of policy and legislation affecting animal disaster management in Kenya
    Gap analysis of the institutional arrangements in delivering animal disaster management in the devolved system.
    Cost benefit analysis of RVF management – 2006-2008; 2015; 2018
    Cost- benefit analysis of PPR management – in central and devolved year
    Cost-benefit analysis of flood year – in central and devolved year (2015, 2018)
    Gaps, Successes, Challenges and Recommendations
    Attend a validation workshop
    Submit Final Report, with validation workshop input

    TIME FRAME
    The work will take a total of 30 days.
    CONSULTANTS PROFILE
    This consultancy will be undertaken by an institution with demonstrated capacity and expertise in disaster risk management and a demonstrated understanding of national institutions governance and the other ecosystems supporting the animal sector like environment, water and public health. The institution will also have demonstrated capacity in a multi-disciplinary approach to disaster management and training, coupled with experience in good hands on livestock disaster project engagement with multi-level stakeholders.
