Report of Research Findings and Recommendations
Taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the AfCFTA to grow trade in wild meat will be greatly facilitated by identifying and addressing non-tariff barriers (NTBs) that restrict the intra-African wild meat trade. This report evaluates aspects of the AfCFTA NTB Reporting, Monitoring and Elimination Mechanism and in particular and considers its appropriateness as a forum of dispute resolution for the barriers identified within the scope of this research.
This research considered the AfCFTA NTB mechanism as an appropriate forum of dispute resolution for the barriers identified as within the scope of this research. This research aimed to develop policy recommendations that have the potential to effect actual change in the industry.
