Any takers? Harry -----Original Message----- From: egov4dev@yahoogroups.com [mailto:egov4dev@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Richard Heeks Sent: 29 March 2006 16:25 To: egov4dev@yahoogroups.com Subject: [egov4dev] Consultant Sought for Commissioned Writing on ICTs and Fisheries The Sustainable Fisheries Livelihoods Programme (www.sflp.org) is funded by DFID and implemented by FAO in partnership with government ministries and NGO/civil society in 25 West African countries. We are now looking to commission a piece of work on the use of ICT in the small-scale or artisanal fisheries sector in developing countries, for example: - how the use of mobile phones has changed fish marketing - SMS weather forecasting & storm warnings for safety - GPS technology for fishing operations and in participatory monitoring, control and surveillance systems. - Use of low-cost echo-sounders for improved efficiency of fishing operations - Use of internet technologies for networking among civil-society groups and for co-ordination of decentralised/community-based management of resources - Community radio for social change We are looking for someone who understands the kinds of social and economic changes that result from, or are enabled by, recent and emerging ICTs. They don't need to know the fisheries sector, although it may help. They will need to speak French. This will be about 20 days paid work, to include a visit to FAO Rome, and probably to Senegal. Timetable is fairly flexible, but preferably before end September 2006.
