The Problem

Problem Statement 1: Demystifying Laws Around Wildlife Trafficking

Our Proposal

A web application to act as a middle layer platform for aggregation, analysis, and simplification of both international and local laws around wildlife trafficking. This platform will enable a user get quick access to wildlife information that includes laws, best practice in trading a given species among others.

We Assume that...

most countries wildlife laws are stored electronically

Constraints to Overcome

Data inconsistency in different datasets provided by different countries' wildlife law systems law jargons that are in the laws, making it difficult to understand wildlife laws

Current Work

Devising means for efficiently standardizing the data sets from different systems our API will interact with. Developing a proof of concept working prototype

Current Needs

- skilled personnel from conservation centers
