About the Project
Pamoja Tuhifadhi Bahari Yetu (BY) Project is a four-year initiative (2024–2028) implemented by IUCN,
TNC, WCS, WWF, FORUMCC, and government counterparts in Mainland Tanzania (through the
Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries-MLF) and Zanzibar (through the Ministry of Blue Economy and
Fisheries-MOBEF). The project aims to:
➢ Improve environmental protection and biodiversity conservation of coastal and marine
ecosystems.
➢ Strengthen community-led coastal forest resource management.
➢ Reduce plastic pollution in rivers, estuaries, and the marine environment; and
➢ Enhance institutional and research capacity for coastal and marine resource management.
The project is structured around five work packages (WP), each of which is implemented by a distinct
partner, and, when necessary, by two partners, to achieve the outcomes. The WP are in the following
Statement of Requirements for Goods v1 March2024
areas: the protection of marine resources and biodiversity, the strengthening of community-led
management of coastal forests, the prevention of plastic litter in marine and estuary water bodies, the
enhancement of institutional capacities for the research, monitoring, surveillance, and management of
coastal and marine resources, and the last project management, coordination, and acceleration of
impact.
Under Work Package 2: Strengthen Community-led Management of Coastal Forests, the project aims
to fully operationalize community based forest management in the prioritized coastal forest landscapes
by providing comprehensive support in restoration, village land use planning including establishment of
village land forest reserves, support community-based forest governance through strengthening natural
resources governance and the creation of a community forest governance monitoring dashboards and
promote sustainable green economy enterprises through the identification, strengthening and
incubation of community-based organizations engaged in forest value chains. As part of this
intervention, the project will support selected Green Economy Incubation (GEI) groups through a
comprehensive package of assistance, including technical capacity-building, enterprise development
support, access to appropriate technologies and structured incubation services to enhance productivity,
value addition and market competitiveness.
To facilitate value addition within the carpentry enterprise, the project intends to procure and distribute
carpentry tools and equipment to selected GEI group(s) in Kilwa District. The equipment will enable
beneficiary groups to improve wood processing, furniture production, finishing and product
diversification, thereby enhancing the quality and competitiveness of carpentry products, increasing
household incomes and creating greater market opportunities.
