Notice text
This is a Request for Information (RFI) - Sources Sought Synopsis and is not a pre-solicitation announcement. The purpose of this RFI is to seek information to support planning for a potential activity to address illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing and associated human rights and labor abuses, particularly focused on the Gulf of Guinea as outlined in the attached RFI.
Through this RFI, USAID/West Africa aims to deepen its understanding of key threats and drivers of IUU fishing and associated labor abuse across West Africa. We are also interested in advancing collaborative discussions among USG partners, local organizations, and other leading experts to inform future USAID programming and coordination by: 1) Clarifying the underlying incentive structures behind IUU fishing by industrial, semi-industrial, and small-scale fleets in West Africa; 2) Investigating the types of strategies and interventions that can shift these incentives toward legality and sustainability under the different circumstances present in West Africa; and 3) Considering the types of regional organizations, partnerships, or coordination mechanisms that could implement effective strategies and achieve impact at a regional scale.
