Background
Brooke is an international charity dedicated to protecting and improving the lives of horses, donkeys, and mules, enabling people in the developing world to work their way out of poverty. During 2024 Brooke launched its first Global Research Strategy. The strategy sets out our vision for research and our approach to delivering that ambition. It’s an exciting new chapter, and in the coming years, we will strive to work with our collaborators to deliver strategic and impactful research that provides data and knowledge to support us in delivering our evidence-based programmes. As part of the strategy, in collaboration with University College London we aim to deliver a three-year research programme which aims to evidence the role, health and welfare of working equids in and for disaster risk management (DRM) in six of our countries of operation: Ethiopia, India, Kenya, Nicaragua, Pakistan and Senegal. Currently equids are invisible in national disaster preparedness plans, which means that there is little national guidance on working equid health care and welfare during DRM. Findings from this research programme will inform Brooke’s advocacy and community development work in this area.Purpose of the consultancy
