    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. The Regional Economic Communities (RECs) blocks of focus are; 1. East Africa Community (EAC), 2. Common Market for Eastern & Southern Africa (COMESA) 3. Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) 4. Southern African Development Community (SADC) and these nationalities; 1. Togo 2. Ghana 3. South Africa 4. Kenya 5. Tanzania and 6. Nigeria.
