Call for Expression of Interest (EOI)

The Environment and Conservation Division (EDC), Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, Disaster Management and Meteorology (MECDM) is seeking expressions of interest from qualified and experienced database developers to design and develop a comprehensive database for the Environment and Conservation Division (ECD). The database will be particularly instrumental in managing, tracking, and analyzing critical wildlife trade data and other related information.

ECD administered the three legislations, Environment Act 1998, Protected Areas Act 2012 and Wildlife Protection and Management Act 1998.Under Wildlife Protection and management Act, ECD has statutory mandate to protect, conserve and manage wildlife species that are subject to international wildlife trade. In light of this the Division is responsible to ensuring compliance to wildlife trade requirements, conduct regular monitoring and reporting. However, there has been a challenge for   timely reporting. To address the challenge, FAO has offered a funding support to hire a consultant who will develop Wildlife Trade Database. The selected consultant will work closely with our technical and field teams to ensure that the database meets the organization’s needs for data collection, storage, analysis, and secure access.

Interested firms and Individuals are encouraged to apply.

More information about the consultancy service is clearly spelled out in the Terms of Reference (TOR). This can be obtained from the office of Environment and Conservation Division, Rove Outback Building.
