4.3 Roles of stakeholders: Provisions of the convention cut across many sectors including industries, government institutions, agriculture, health, research, pressure groups, policy makers etc. Therefore each sector needs to be fully involved in the implementation. The stakeholders should be consulted before any decision is reached to include a given chemical in the PIC list because such a decision can have an impact. The stakeholders need also to be updated on the implementation of the convention. The role of stakeholders has been recognized in Tanzania by constituting technical and steering committees for implementation of PIC. Members to the committee were drawn various government institutions, ministries and nongovernment organizations. These include Ministry of Health (Government Chemist Laboratory Agency), Ministry of Agriculture (Tropical Pesticides Research Institute and Plant Health Services), Ministry of Labour and Youth Development (Occupational Health and Safety Authority), CropLife (Tanzania) – formerly the Agrochemical Association of Tanzania, Tanzania Industrial Research Organization, University of Dar Es Salaam, Sokoine University of Agriculture, Ministry of Trade and Industries, Tanzania Bureau of Standards, National Environment Management Council and the Vice President’s Office (Department of Environment). The PIC technical committee was reviewed in September 2003 at a Workshop in Morogoro attended by relevant stakeholders. The Committee comprises 13 expert members from different stakeholders (Table 2): 5.0 CHALLENGES IN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONVENTION AND SOLUTIONS TO OVERCOME THE CHALLENGES 5.1 Challenges: The implementation of the Convention is facing some challenges. These include:- • Undefined responsibilities of the constituted committees. The committees are therefore not meeting regularly to discuss issues related to the convention such as identification of chemicals to add to Annex III and other control actions. • Non-involvement of all stakeholders in decision making with regard to import responses. • Low knowledge and awareness to important stakeholders such as decision makers, importers, business community, regulators, customs officials, exporters, consumers and public in general. • Inadequate coordination among relevant ministries, DNAs and other stakeholders for implementing PIC procedures at National level • Lack of feedback mechanism for country representative to the International conferences, workshops and meetings. 81
• Inadequate dissemination of information to stakeholders • Inadequate human and financial resources. • Lack of cooperation, networking, and collaboration with neighbouring countries (East African Countries) • Lack of experience in preparing and submitting import responses Decision Guidance Documents somehow complicated. 5.2 Solutions to Overcome the Challenges There is a need of concerted efforts by all stakeholders to overcome the identified challenges. Solutions to challenges include:- • Publicizing the convention through both print (newspapers), electronic media (Radio and Television) and information, educational and communication materials (brochure, posters, leaflets). This will enable stakeholders to understand the convention and its benefits. The language of the convention must be simplified for easy communication. • Sensitisation and awareness raising at all levels through seminars, conferences and workshops • Creation of a forum for dissemination of information (DGDs, import responses). The current technical teams are not effective unless they are expanded by including more members from other sectors. • Identification of a proper and sustainable funding mechanism to support the implementation of the Convention. This can be by contribution from all stakeholders, application for assistance from the secretariat or International Organizations. • Capacity building for the stakeholders on aspects of the Convention and its implementation. • Regional cooperation in the implementation of the Convention by sharing the available resources (human and financial) 6.0 LINKAGE BETWEEN THE CONVENTION AND POVERTY REDUCTION: There is evidence that misuse of chemicals and pesticides in developed countries has always caused deaths through exposure, accidental poisonings and suicides/homicides and environmental pollution.
