Request For Proposals

The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is among the leading conservation organizations working around the world to protect ecologically important lands and waters for nature and people. TNC addresses the most pressing conservation threats at the largest scale. Thanks to the support of our more than 1 million members, we’ve built a tremendous record of success since our founding in 1951.

TNC, in a partnership with a wide range of partners, is working to support the conservation of Lake Tanganyika basin while providing livelihood benefits to communities that rely upon the lake. On the Tanzanian shore of Lake Tanganyika, TNC works in collaboration with the Government of Tanzania (Districts, government institutions and communities around the lake) to conserve Lake Tanganyika biodiversity hotspots.

Additionally, there is a need to protect and conserve community-managed fisheries areas (fish breeding sites and temporarily closed areas) and to promote greater participation in Co-Management Institutions (CMIs) to ensure sustainable fisheries management. This Request for proposal outlines the requirements for developing and implementing an Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) strategy to raise community awareness about these issues.

This strategy will be implemented in 10 villages of Nkasi District as follows:

Mkinga ward (Kalungu, Mkinga, Manda Uhuru, Ntanganyika, Majengo mapya),
Kirando ward (Mtakuja, Kichangani)
Kipili ward (Manda Kerenge and Kipili)
Itete ward (Isasa)

It is in that context that TNC wishes to hire a Vendor whose responsibility will be to Develop Information, Education, and Communication Strategy and Implementation Plan for Community Awareness on fisheries Co-Management and biodiversity protection in Nkasi District.

The deadline for submission of proposals is set on 24 June 2024 at 11:59 pm EAT.

Interested and technically vendors are encouraged to reach out to TNC to get the full request for proposal via the e-amil: procurement.lake@tnc.org
