Tanzania Forestry Working Group Calls for "Expressions of Interest" in Designing Independent Forest Monitoring

Following the release of the TRAFFIC report on illegal logging in Tanzania in May 2007, TNRF has secured funding from the Royal Danish Government for designing a programme on Independent Forest Monitoring (IFM). TNRF is acting as the facilitating agent for the design process on behalf of the Tanzania Forest Working Group and in close liaison with the Director of Forestry and Beekeeping.

The objective of the IFM programme is to establish a functioning, broad-based and legitimate IFM process in Tanzania that contributes to good governance, effective forest management and national development with the buy-in of government, civil society, local communities and the private sector. The project will achieve the design of a locally appropriate programme of Independent Forest Monitoring in Tanzania and its subsequent implementation and evaluation.

TNRF is seeking the services of an ‘IFM Design Consulting Group' to be responsible for facilitating the IFM design process and generating a detailed Terms of Reference for the implementation of IFM in Tanzania.
