Pan-African Control of Epizootics (PACE)-Terms of Reference.

The PACE programme is a major development programme financed by the EDF in the field of animal health in Africa, reaching 32 African countries. The Programme started on November 1st, 1999, and countries started the implementation of their PACE national projects from the summer of 2000. After two years of implementation, a mid term review is commissioned, as foreseen in the Financing agreement. The review will be undertaken in the second quarter of 2002 by a team of independent consultants. The duration of the study will be 8 weeks. It is expected that the study reviews the programme at its different levels of implementation, and draws the necessary conclusions to enhance its impact.
