Description

WWF views Remote Electronic Monitoring with cameras and gear sensors (hereafter referred to as REM) as a technological development with the potential to greatly enhance the ability for fisheries and governments around the world to improve their data collection, monitoring, accountability and minimise the risk of IUU in both artisanal and industrial fisheries.

WWF is seeking to commission a suitably experienced consulting firm or individual to research and compile a report that identifies what best practice looks like (in different scenarios), outlines what the key steps are that are required to set in place an effective REM system and where at different levels - global, regional and national - advocacy efforts will be best directed.

More information about the objectives, suggested methodology and deliverables are described in the attached terms of reference.

To express interest in this opportunity, applications should be submitted to include the following elements:
• A letter (maximum 2 pages A4) expressing interest and demonstrating the relevant skills and experience.
• A short method statement (maximum 2 pages A4) detailing the approach and method that shall be used to deliver the Terms of Reference.
• A table indicating how the available budget would be allocated with respect to different milestones and tasks associated with the report.
• A up-to-date CV (or similar) for individuals to be involved in delivery.
• A maximum of 3 examples of past work, demonstrating relevant skills.
