Notice Title

CEFAS21-118 OCPP fisheries and ghost gear data collection in Sri Lanka

Notice Description

The OCPP was announced this year as a key bilateral aid programme under the PS500m 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 requires the successful Tenderer to organise a 'physical/in person' data collection campaign to collect data on ALDFG and end of life (EOL) fishing gear in Sri Lanka. Data shall be collected through a technical questionnaire prepared by Cefas scientists. The questionnaire is aimed at fishery vessel owners, fishers, crewmembers, port operators and any other relevant stakeholders related to fisheries in Sri Lanka. Cefas will share the questionnaire with the successful Tenderer before discussing possible final adjustments. Once the questionnaire is finalised, the successful Tenderer will identify a representative number of people to interview, aiming to cover as many different communities around Sri Lanka as possible. Before starting the interviews, a training session will be organised by Cefas to train the operators to collect data as consistently as possible throughout the campaign. The successful Tenderer is required to be able to translate the questionnaire from English into Sinhala and Tamil and be able to perform the interviews using operators that are fluent in Sinhala and Tamil in order to maximise reach and ensure accuracy of the answers. After the collection of the data, the successful tenderer will produce a report doing a preliminary analysis of the data and will hand over all the data and metadata to Cefas.
