ing them together into dialogue and action so as to assist the effective implementation of the chemical conventions and processes in Tanzania. This will help to integrate an environmental dimension into national development priorities and promote sustainable livelihoods in rural areas. The project specific objectives are to assist and support the Tanzania government in implementing initiatives for local action (on environment and livelihood priorities) that enhances national regulations, synergism and share experiences nationally and internationally. Strengthen national regulatory environments and create new opportunities for collaboration between NGOs and government and other stakeholders to address the detrimental effects of hazardous pesticides. Raise awareness of the relevance of local application of international initiatives within the NGO community and civil society and demonstrate where sustainable alternatives are available and appropriate to reduce dependence on hazardous pesticides He highlighted that the project partners are Pesticide Action Network UK (PAN UK) which is the overall project coordinator, Pesticide Action Network Africa (PAN Africa) will provide information on outreach and NGO activities and also play the role of project coordinator in Africa and Pesticide Action Network Asia and the Pacific (PAN AP) will facilitate training in Tanzania on the implementation of community monitoring, provide community monitoring manual and tool kits and will provide training of trainers. Other partners of the project are Environmental Impact Ecologists from the Natural Resources Institute of the University of Greenwich, EcoSphere Law firm- based in Brussels and NGO partners in Ethiopia, Benin and Cameroon will participate in specific project activities. Mr Abdul further mentioned that the project target groups include NGOs, policy makers, pesticides regulators and customers, research institutions and academia, industries and media. He pointed out that the project activities are building multi-stakeholder involvement; community monitoring of health hazards; Eco-toxicological Monitoring - Documenting and communicating environmental impacts; African Stockpiles Programme – Opportunities and actions; Development of the Consolidated guide and checklist for implementation of conventions; Conducting Case Studies: to document gaps between regulation and the field – risk and mitigation; Integrated Pest Management - organise field visits for policy makers to demonstrate the benefits and appropriateness of sustainable strategies; and Communicating results- communication strategy. After the presentation, participants commended organisations for initiating this project. It was noted that the project had been designed such that it involves a range of different stakeholders. One participant noted further that one of the project activities is on ecotoxicological monitoring is similar to ecotoxicological training which is scheduled to take place in Zanzibar between 21 st Nov and 2 nd December 2005 organised by WIOMSA. He queried whether the organisers of 5
this project are aware of this training, whether they will be taking part so as to maximise the benefits of these two initiatives. The reaction from the organisers were that they were not aware of the said training, however efforts will be made to contact the organisers of the training in Zanzibar to solicit for collaboration. One participant asked what are the objectives of the Ecotoxicological training and the reaction was that: the objectives are to train stakeholders on the use of ecotoxicologal monitoring tools to understand and increase awareness of the communities on the impacts of the pesticides. It was further commented that Ecotox is a study that enables people to analyse, assess the lifecycle of the pesticides. A manual is being developed by Greenwich University of Britain, the participants will be required to assess and comment on the suitability of the manual for Tanzania use. Further, it was queried that there is equally rampant misuse of pesticides in urban areas but why the project is not focussing on this segment of communities. The reaction was that the project will focus on generic problems and solutions, which will be relevant to all environmental settings. It was further commended that most of the projects usually focus only on capacity building, therefore we now have to think about capacity utilisation too. It was further contributed that it is a sad situation for exemption of using DDT on assumption that DDT is a silver bullet to fix malaria problems and neglecting the fact that there are other safe chemicals for malaria control. There are sad situation in South Africa where DDT spraying was done in poor areas only. Furthermore, WHO stringent application procedures cannot be met in African situation meaning that indoor DDT spraying would be more dangerous to human lives than Malaria itself. It was further noted that there are many alternatives for malaria control. In addition to that, it was highlighted that DDT targets adult mosquitoes, sustainable malaria control strategy should focus on killing even non-adult mosquitoes such as lavaes. It was then contributed that using DDT, we risk eligibility of exporting our agricultural products to developed countries due to potential high DDT residue content on agricultural products. Therefore it was commended that Tanzania applied for exemption and it has not used it at all. The exemption provide the right to use DDT especially during emergency situations e.g. during malaria epidemics and when other available and cheap alternatives fails. The application was necessitated by the fact that alternatives were more expensive than the DDT. Finally, it was commended that alternatives should be safe, effective, socially acceptable, available and easily applicable. It was further queried that, is the project focusing on a specific area of Tanzania and the reaction was that the project covers the whole country and it can be seen in this workshop that participants comes from different regions. It was then asked whether the project have a budget ceiling and which professionals will be involved and the reaction was that the whole project including other countries has the total budget of 1.3 m Euros for three years and collaborate with different professionals from international organisations such as Ecosphere, PAN UK, PAN Africa, PAN AP etc. therefore the project is well equipped in terms of funds and 6
