REQUEST FOR EXPRESSION OF INTEREST (REOI)
INDIVIDUAL CONSULTANT
for
CONSULTANCY SERVICE of ASSESSMENT OF SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC COSTS OF CATTLE RUSTLING IN ETHIOPIA
BACKGROUND
IGAD Centre for Pastoral Areas and Livestock Development (ICPALD) with support from EU (RISP3 Programme) commissioned three studies (Kenya, Uganda and Sudan) to assess social and economic costs of cattle rustling in these countries. It was observed that in addition to killing, maiming and kidnapping the communities targeted for raids the countries incurred heavy economic costs; In Kenya cattle rustling costs the economy Ksh 51.78 billion ($ 0.5178 billion) in 2017, in Uganda it costs UgSh 394.1 ($ 110 million), while in the Sudan it costs an estimated SDG 40.3 billion ($ 6.0 billion) . Given the high social and economic costs of this illegal activity it is critical that similar studies are undertaken in Ethiopia and South Sudan to collect more evidence that will feed into a synthesized status of cattle rustling at regional level. It is proposed that the findings of each of the countries and a synthesized regional report be presented to technical experts from member states before being tabled for action by Permanent Secretaries/Under Secretaries/State Ministers and Ministers. It is expected that IGAD member states will cooperate and collaborate in the development of appropriate policy and legal frameworks and better informed policing will form part of the member states response to this deadly criminal activity especially in cross border areas.
This proposed study is expected to determine the social and economic effects of cattle rustling at country level in Ethiopia and inform with evidence the intended and on-going efforts of curbing the cattle rustling practice and hence reducing the crimes associated with it.
