Description

Cefas require services for providing an outreach and education programme on abandoned lost or otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) along the Ghana coastline, under the Ocean Country Partnership Programme (OCPP).

The OCPP was announced in 2021 as a key bilateral aid programme under the £500m Blue Planet Fund. 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.

Cefas will work alongside international partners in government and society to collaborate on work packages to tackle marine litter, including raising awareness to encourage best practices in litter disposal. This includes collecting data to evaluate the status of forms of pollutions such as abandoned lost and otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) and educating and engaging with local communities to start conversations about solutions. This also includes an outreach programme on ALDFG to raise awareness of the possible impacts of ALDFG.

The successful Tenderer will engage with local fisherfolk to understand how ALDFG is currently entering the marine environment in Ghana and what solutions the local community believe will be beneficial in reducing ALDFG nationally in the future

The successful Tenderer will be expected to provide technical knowledge, explore potential in- country solutions, and create and provide appropriate training materials.

It is expected that the successful Tenderer will be on the ground, engaging face-to-face with the local fishing communities in Ghana.
