## Summary

The Centre for Environment, Fisheries, and Aquaculture Science (Cefas) has awarded a contract to the British Council Sri Lanka for the delivery of climate change education as part of the Ocean Country Partnership Programme (OCPP). The initiative, titled "CEFAS24-149 Delivery of Climate change education with British Council in Sri Lanka," is valued at GBP 40,000. The procurement process was direct and conducted via single tender action, beginning on 20 February 2025 and concluding on 31 March 2025. This programme aims to educate adolescents in socioeconomic marginalised communities, utilising physical and digital materials provided in English, Sinhala, and Tamil, covering various aspects of climate change.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, particularly those focusing on climate change and youth education. SME and VCSE companies capable of developing and delivering educational content, especially for socioeconomic diverse audiences, would find this a lucrative prospect. The initiative promises business growth by engaging with international collaborations and contributing to global climate education efforts, enhancing the supplier's profile and opening doors to future opportunities in similar international programs.

## Notice

The Ocean Country Partnership Programme (OCPP) is funded through UK official development assistance as part of the UKs 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. Requirements: Delivery of the climate change education initiative through the Girl Guides Association programme. The delivery will utilise physical and digital education material on climate change which has been produced by OCPP in collaboration with government partners in Sri Lanka in English, Sinhala, Tamil. These materials will be provided to the Supplier on Contract inception. The materials include 4 lessons on different areas of climate change in the form of a booklet (digital and physical), and accompanying videos and activities associated with the lessons learnt. Through the program, we aim to deliver climate change knowledge to adolescents who are out of school or living in socio-economic marginalised communities. Additionally, the English materials can be used to further their proficiency of the English language, which has been shown to be a factor increasing earnings prospects and alleviating poverty.
