CENTRE FOR ENVIRONMENT, FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE SCIENCE

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-05462d

Description

The Ocean Country Partnership Programme (OCPP) is funded through UK official development assistance as part of the UKs Blue Planet Fund. It aims to strengthen marine science expertise, develop science-based policy and management tools, and create educational resources for coastal communities under three main objectives described in terms of marine pollution, sustainable seafood, and marine biodiversity. It supports activities in partnership with country governments directed towards capacity building for marine science in local institutions organisations and communities. Despite the significant funding made available, ensuring programme outcomes are supported beyond the life of the programme will require securing long term resilient financial flows to sustain marine pollution and water quality activities established under the OCPP programme. Under the OCPP, Cefas will use existing experience of collaboration at an international level, to develop innovative science techniques and analyses with OCPP partner countries that address marine pollution challenges. The Supplier will design, organise and deliver a climate change teacher training pilot scheme in a minimum of two provinces of Sri Lanka, covering one urban location (e.g. Western province/Colombo) and one rural location, which will be identified by the supplier and agreed with Cefas, in Sinhala and Tamil languages. The pilot scheme will utilise physical and digital education material on climate change which have been previously produced by OCPP in collaboration with government partners in Sri Lanka, in English, Sinhala, Tamil. A sample of these materials is available in the Bidder Pack and the full materials will be provided in full to the successful Supplier at Contract inception. Additionally, we require the supplier to incorporate knowledge on how GEDSI impacts climate change into the training. The GEDSI section is to be designed by the supplier and will be reviewed by Cefas prior to delivery. This is expected to cover no more than 15 minutes of the full training time. The materials cover the following themes: • What is climate change; • Climate change and humans; • Climate change and the marine environment; and • What can we do to limit the effects of climate change.
