THE STRATEGIC ACTION PROGRAMME (SAP) FOR THE INTERNATIONAL WATERS OF THE
PACIFIC SMALL ISLAND DEVELOPING STATES

INVITATION FOR AN EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
SYNOPSIS OF INFORMATION RELATING TO
THE QUALITY OF FRESHWATER AND WATERSHED MANAGEMENT ISSUES IN THE PACIFIC
ISLANDS REGION

Background
The SAP is a 5-year project funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF),
implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and executed
by the South Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP).  The Project
Co-ordination Unit (PCU) for the SAP is based at SPREP's headquarters at
Apia, Samoa.

The SAP has two components.  The oceanic component is specifically targeting
management and conservation issues associated with the regional tuna
resource in the Central Western Pacific.  Responsibility for this aspect of
the SAP rests with the Secretariat for the Pacific Community (SPC), based in
New Caledonia, and the Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA) based in Solomon Islands.

The second component is concerned with coastal and watershed issues.  The
PCU is responsible for this component, which will focus on the
implementation of 14 Pilot Projects, one in each island country
participating in the Programme (Cook Islands, Federated States of
Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Niue, Palau, Papua New
Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu).

The Programme aims to assist island States, and their communities, improve
their capacity to manage transboundary water resources and create improved
processes to address environmental degradation and promote resource
sustainability.  The Pilot Projects are to assist with the identification of
best practices and appropriate methodologies in four broad focal areas:
reducing community waste impacts on the environment, the sustainable
management of freshwater resources, management of marine protected areas and
sustainable management of coastal fisheries.  Community level activity will
be important elements of each Project.

Project Description
The objective of this consultancy is to provide a review of published and
other information relating to the management and conservation of freshwater
resources at the community level in the Pacific Islands region. The review
will place particular emphasis on threats to catchments and groundwater
lenses and management issues related to the sustainability of sources of
potable water.

Terms of Reference

The consultancy may be undertaken either by a consultant working
independently or a team of consultants that would combine their efforts to
complete the work required.

The consultancy will result in a report that will be used by the PCU and its
partners to assist with the selection, design, implementation, monitoring
and evaluation of pilot projects that will address issues associated with
the management and conservation of freshwater resources in the Pacific
Islands region.

The report will include:

· A review of current information relating to freshwater resources
management in the Pacific Islands region.  Emphasis will be on potable water
quality.

The review should summarize activities, within the region or elsewhere, that
have attempted to improve capacity to manage activities that threaten
freshwater resources within communities.  As with all elements of the
review, adequate discussion of issues associated with different ecosystems
(low island/high island and coastal/upper watershed) shall be presented.

Information may include:
· threats to freshwater resources,
· a review of priority concerns in Pacific Island communities in relation to
securing adequate quality freshwater,
· the relationships between the effective management of freshwater resources
and other issues to be addressed under the SAP concerning community waste,
marine protected areas and sustainable coastal fisheries, and
· management and governance issues associated with securing sustainable
quality freshwater sources in communities that are generally experiencing
rapid population growth.

· An outline of the types of community-based project activities that could
be implemented to address freshwater sustainability issues in the Pacific
islands region under the SAP.

· A list of references, additional readings, potential resource people, and
web sites relating to the SAP's programme in community-based waste.

The review should focus on activities in the South Pacific region with
adequate representation and discussion of case studies from Melanesia,
Polynesia and Micronesia.  Information from island ecosystems in other ocean
regions should be cited where appropriate.

Some source information will be available through a concurrent review to be
undertaken of past, current and planned country activities in the four focal
areas in the South Pacific region.  This consultancy will involve a 3-day
visit to Fiji, to liaise with SOPAC staff.  Time in Samoa will include
visits to the UNESCO office for discussions with technical staff there.

The product of the consultancy will be a report (no more than 25 pages plus
bibliography) submitted to SPREP in hard copy and electronic format. The
consultant will be required to submit a draft report to SPREP for comment.
Copyright for the report, and ownership of all material produced during the
consultancy, will be vested in SPREP.

Expression of Interest

Interested individuals and organisations are invited to submit a proposal
expressing interest in this consultancy.  Each response must provide:

· the CVs of individuals that will contribute to the report,
· a summary of recent work in this field (client contact details and work
produced),
· an indication of availability between the late-March and the end of April
2001,
· indicative daily consultancy fees,
· a draft outline or table of contents for a report that may be produced
under the consultancy.

The International Waters Project will cover all costs associated with the
consultancy.

A response to this invitation would be appreciated by c.o.b. Friday 16th
March 2001.

JOB DESCRIPTION

TITLE:			Live Reef Fish Trade Coordinator
SUPERVISOR:		Director, Coastal/Marine Program
LOCATION:		Hong Kong
DATE:			January, 2001

SUMMARY OF POSITION:

The Nature Conservancy's Asia/Pacific Coastal/Marine Program is working to
develop and refine its live reef fish trade strategy to help minimize the
trade's destructive impact on marine biodiversity in Indonesia and the
Pacific.  Recognizing the unsustainable nature of the live reef fish trade
and its immense threats to marine biodiversity, the Conservancy is working
to catalyze a trend that will convert the trade's dependence on wild caught
groupers to the use of groupers raised in hatcheries.  The Conservancy
believes that this market transformation can be achieved through the
mariculture of target species in the supply (or exporting) countries such as
Indonesia and in mainland China.  Sustainable mariculture will help abate
the damaging effects of destructive fishing methods on coral reefs, while
relieving fishing pressure on the breeding populations of targeted species.  

Leading this effort will be a Live Reef Fish Trade Coordinator.  S/he will
build and maintain partnerships within the wide range of business,
government, NGO, and intergovernmental parties involved in the trade.  The
Coordinator will also be responsible for hiring and managing consultants;
promoting critical policy changes; implementing the demand component of the
Conservancy's live reef fish trade strategy and ensuring integration with
supply side country activities; and, helping secure additional financial
support (funds and in-kind) to execute the strategy.  S/he will report to
the Director of the Coastal/Marine Program.


DUTIES:

1. Initiate and strengthen collaboration among regional partners to develop
and implement a coordinated strategy for exporting countries and in Greater
China to support a sustainable live reef fish trade.

2. Recruit, hire and manage two consultants, an International Trade
Specialist and a Mariculture Specialist, and work with them to develop a
coordinated approach to address the demand side of the industry.  

3. Together with the International Marinelife Alliance (IMA), TRAFFIC, Hong
Kong Chamber of Seafood Merchants, other individuals and agencies, and the
International Trade Specialist, develop and implement a system to monitor
market trends for the live reef fish trade and disseminate the information
internationally as appropriate for active management of the trade.

4. Work with partners to determine the price-demand relationship in the live
reef fish trade and explore the possibility of manipulating the price
structure to regulate the trade.

5. Determine the best roles of demand markets (Taiwan, Hong Kong, and
mainland China in particular) in assisting the Conservancy to achieve its
objectives in mariculture development.  Work with the Greater China Team,
the Mariculture Specialist and other key players to develop and implement
sustainable strategies.  Such key players include the Taiwan Fish Breeding
Association, Taiwan's Overseas Fisheries Development Council, the Hong Kong
Government's Agriculture and Fisheries Department, seafood restaurant
associations, and the Hong Kong Chamber of Seafood Merchants, as well as
other major players in mariculture technologies (e.g., Queensland Department
of Primary Industries, Gondol Fisheries Research Institute, etc.). 

6. Frequently assess and evaluate the Conservancy's collaborative,
multi-partner, Integrated Live Reef Fish Trade strategy, update as necessary
and develop an implementation plan for the Conservancy's component,
including helping to secure resources.

7. Engage APEC and other government partners in promoting regional policies
and regulations, a certification system, and enforcement programs to support
sustainable practices.

8. Identify and encourage private and public investors in mariculture in
Indonesia and mainland China.  Work with Conservancy staff to catalyze
financial investments in mariculture linked to the conservation of marine
biodiversity, such as through a Biodiversity Enterprise Fund.

9. Prepare reports and presentations and attend meetings as may be required
by the Director, Coastal Marine Program and the Director, Greater China Program.


REQUIREMENTS:

1. Excellent business background with experience in the development and
implementation of marketing programs.

2. Strong experience in macroeconomics and/or international trade policies.

3. Strong working experience in Greater China (especially Taiwan and Hong Kong).

4. Experience working with government agencies and international policy
organizations; good lobbying skills.

5. Fishery or environmental conservation experience preferred but not required.

6. Excellent communications and writing skills.  

7. Fluency in spoken English and Chinese (Mandarin required; Cantonese
preferred but not required).

WILDLIFE VOLUNTEER NEEDED FOR PLANT MANAGEMENT PROJECTS IN MAURITIUS WITH
THE MAURITIAN WILDLIFE FOUNDATION


Starting from March 2001 for six months to one year.


The Mauritian Wildlife Foundation is a highly successful Non-Governmental
Organisation working to save the globally endangered flora and fauna of
Mauritius and Rodrigues. Notable successes include the conservation of the
Mauritius kestrel, pink pigeon and echo parakeet and ecosystem restoration
projects in Mauritius, its offshore islets and Rodrigues.


Plant Conservation Projects

We are seeking a motivated plant ecologist with an interest in invasive
species management to work together with our MWF weed ecologist on the
following current and future programmes on Ile aux Aigrettes (a 25 ha.
island close to the Mauritian mainland that we are currently restoring) and
on the Mauritian mainland:


1.        Quantification of the weed potential of Flacourtia indica on Ile
aux Aigrettes. Flacourtia indica is one of the most serious weeds on Ile aux
Aigrettes. Very little is known about its basic ecology on the island.
Investigations are currently under way on such parameters as growth rate,
seed production and contribution to the soil seed bank.

2.        Comparison of manual, chemical and integrated control strategies
for weed management on Ile aux Aigrettes. Investigations are ongoing into
the effects of the different strategies on native and non-native plant
regeneration and on the cost-effectiveness of management.

3.        Impact of giant tortoises on the flora of Ile aux Aigrettes.
Pristine Mauritius once had two species of giant tortoise, which were the
main large herbivores present on the island. Both species are now extinct
but clearly would have had a major impact on the Mauritian ecosystem. In an
effort to simulate this effect, Aldabran tortoises were released into an
enclosed area on Ile aux Aigrettes in November. Their effects on the native
and introduced vegetation are being investigated.

4.        The impact of introduced plants on the native ecosystems of the
Mauritian upland forest. Although information exists on the impact of weeds
on native vegetation in Mauritius few quantitative studies have been
undertaken as yet. This program will establish a priority ranking of weeds
in terms of criteria such as current extent, rate of spread and ease of
control in different ecological zones.

The programs WILL NOT involve long hours of manual weeding!!!! We have
long-term staff available for this.

Requirements
Applicants should be able to key plants to genus and species and have some
experience of plant propagation methods and ecological methodologies. They
must be willing to learn, work in a team, maintain a good attitude, have the
ability to walk across rough terrain and work long field hours. Data
analysis, data presentation and report writing skills are also necessary.
You will also need a clean driving license. Minimum age 21.

Experience gained

You will gain practical experience of weed management, nursery management,
ecosystem restoration, data analysis and presentation, working as a team
member, and group dynamics.


Expenses & living conditions
We cannot pay travel costs to and from Mauritius. Accommodation and relevant
field equipment are provided. You will need binoculars, a compass and field
clothes. You will be based on Ile aux Aigrettes most of the time. The island
has a small house and a bunkhouse. You will have to share rooms with others.

As part of our restoration project the successful applicant will have the
chance to work on Round Island for at least a month. Round Island is a much
more remote island than Ile aux Aigrettes. It has suffered a massive loss of
vegetation because of the activities of introduced rabbits and goats (now
eradicated). We are at the beginning phase of a project to restore the
island.

In addition to Ile aux Aigrettes, we have field stations in four locations
in the Black River Gorges National Park and a house on the Mauritian
mainland for aviary staff and for rest & recuperation for other field staff.
We are currently in the planning stage for the construction of a Round
Island field station. It will be ready by the time the restoration project
begins (May 2001).

We generally advise people to bring the equivalent of about 200 pounds
sterling monthly living expenses.

Although people start as pure volunteers it is sometimes possible to raise a
local salary six months after arriving. However, there can be no guarantee
of this.

Volunteers often go on to pursue post-graduate degrees following on from the
project they were working in or in a linked area. Once again there can be no
guarantee of this.


What to expect

Long field days, tropical sun, tropical seas and tropical rain, meeting new
people, and learning about new places, some of the rarest birds, plants,
reptiles and bats in the world.

Position open until filled.  APPLY ASAP.

SECRETARIAT OF THE PACIFIC COMMUNITY

DUTY STATEMENT

COMMUNITY FISHERIES OFFICER

The Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC) is an independent
intergovernmental agency providing technical advice, assistance, training
and research in the service of the 22 Pacific Island countries and
territories of Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia. It currently has a
staff of more than 230. SPC is officially bilingual, with English and
French being the working languages.

The Community Fisheries Section (CFS) is one of six sections that makes up
the Coastal Fisheries Programme. The CFS currently consists of two
professional staff and a project assistant. The objective of the CFP
Community Fisheries Section is to: "encourage the participation of coastal
fishing communities, particularly women, in the management of subsistence
and artisanal fisheries and to allow them to benefit from regional and
national fisheries assessment, development and management activities".

Under the supervision of the Community Fisheries Adviser, the Community
Fisheries Officer implements technical assistance projects and training
workshops requested by SPC Pacific Island member governments and
administrations, and assists the Community Fisheries Adviser in
coordinating regional approaches to community fisheries issues. As with
most SPC professional posts the work is bi-phasic. A good part of the work
entails travelling to requesting countries, and implementing an agreed
work programme, often in very remote and isolated locations, including
aboard fishing vessels. The rest of the work is based at the SPC Noumea
headquarters, compiling information and preparing reports and resource
materials.

Because of the remoteness of some locations, the Community Fisheries
Officer needs to be able to operate independently where necessary to meet
the objectives of the specific project. When in the field, the Community
Fisheries Officer works with a range of people from different cultural and
educational backgrounds, including local fishers, processors, Government
fisheries department staff and politicians. Good communication and
negotiation skills and patience are required, especially when problems are
encountered during a project.

The post requires a self-starter with experience of implementing workshops
and training courses, and experience with reef fisheries in the Pacific
Community region.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

1. Assist with the development and implementation of the workplan of the
Community Fisheries Section.

2. Work closely with SPC member countries to develop programmes of support
to the small-scale fisheries sector, particularly in regard to the
involvement of women. This will include the provision of technical
information and advice on development and management of subsistence and
artisanal fisheries, the delivery of practical training workshops to meet
specific requirements, and the development of resource material to support
this work.

3. In collaboration with the Community Fisheries Adviser, assist in the
production of reports and publications arising from the work of the
Section.

4. In liaison with the Coordinator of the Women in Fisheries Special
Interest Group, gather and collate materials for inclusion into the
Group's Bulletin, assuming responsibility for the Bulletin??s timely
production on a biannual basis ( coastfish/ News/ WIF/
wif.htm).

5. Collaborate with other members of staff of SPC in allied fields. In
particular, work in close consultation with other sections of the SPC
Coastal Fisheries Programme to ensure balanced and equitable support to
member countries in the field of fisheries. In addition, work in
consultation with other sections of SPC, and other organisations, on
cross-cutting issues such as health and nutrition, gender issues as
relating to fisheries, and marine environmental issues.

6. Perform such other duties as required by the Community Fisheries
Adviser or the Director of Marine Resources.

QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE

Very important

1. A university degree or equivalent qualification or experience in an
appropriate subject.

2. Experience including:

?? Work in the Pacific Community region.
?? Practical experience in fishing and/or fisheries post-harvest
activities
?? Experience of working with women in the fisheries sector
?? Experience of working with small-scale coastal fisheries

3. Demonstrated ability in developing collaborative work programmes and
planning project budgets, and writing reports on activities.

4. Willingness to travel regularly to undertake assignments in member
countries and territories served by SPC.

5. Fluency, spoken and written, in one of the official languages of the
Secretariat of the Pacific Community.

Important

6. Experience in the development of training/resource material suitable
for community-level use would be an advantage.

7. A working knowledge of both of SPC's official languages would be
advantageous, and ability to speak one of the Pacific Island region's
approximately 1,110 other languages will also be taken into account.

SALARY AND ALLOWANCE

The starting salary for this position will be SDR 3,064 per month, which
is equivalent to CFP 510,125 francs per month in the SPC PO 6 salary
grade. In addition, an Establishment Grant will be payable to
non-residents of New Caledonia. SPC emoluments are not subject to income
tax in New Caledonia at the present time. The international currency
exchange rate at the time of writing is approximately USD 1.00 = 142
francs CFP.

TENURE

The appointment will be for a period of three years in the first instance,
subject to a one-year probationary period. The contract may be renewed for
a further three years subject to performance and continued funding
availability.

DUTY STATION

Noumea, New Caledonia.

ACCOMMODATION

An SPC-owned house or flat will be made available, based on the following
deductions from basic salary:

2 bedrooms - 11.5%
3 bedrooms - 12.5%
4 bedrooms - 15.0%

Housing is expensive in Noumea and, despite these standard salary
deductions, the cost of housing is heavily subsidised.

LEAVE

Leave will accrue at the rate of 2.5 working days per calendar month of
active duty.

SICK LEAVE

Thirty working days per annum.

MEDICAL BENEFITS

The SPC??s Staff Medical Insurance, to which the appointee will contribute
1.5% of basic salary, reimburses doctors?? fees, cost of prescribed
medicines, surgical and hospital costs, etc. up to certain percentages and
limits. Supplementary medical insurance is available to increase these
