By engaging with the Ocean Country Partnership Programme, businesses can contribute to increasing awareness of Marine Protected Areas and supporting sustainable livelihoods in the Maldives. ## Notice This contract sits under the "Biodiversity Loss" strand of the Ocean Country Partnership Programme, which aims to: * Increase understanding of the value of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in supporting sustainable livelihoods, food security, health and well-being; * Increase understanding of MPA theory and practice, including evidence gathering, identification, selection, monitoring and assessment of MPAs; * Increase support and compliance for MPAs with stakeholders; and * Enhance capability and drive within countries to sustainably manage, monitor and assess conservation activities in the future. Project Objectives To meet the overall aims of this project (Section 2), the objectives are: Produce electronic resources to be dispersed across the Maldives Atolls online and via island councils. These resources should aim to improve the fundamental local understanding of MPAs, what they are, the types of MPAs in the Maldives, the social, economic and environmental benefits they bring and the threats they currently face. The resources produced must be translated into both English and Dhivehi to maximise accessibility and inclusivity across the Maldives. The ideal candidate to produce these resources will have experience in creating communication content for the Maldives, this experience will help us to tailor our products to the audience in the Maldives. The end result will be an engaging set of products aimed at reading ages of 6-9 that will provide basic information on what an MPA is, why they are important, how they benefit local communities and how they help to protect the marine environment from the threats they face. Ideally information on how local people can engage with MPAs and help the marine environment will be included. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3137bbef-5d4d-432b-bcd5-b7cce1fee6f6 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Nov 2022 | | Submission deadline | 18 Nov 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 21 Nov 2022 - 6 Mar 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £20,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | JOINT NATURE CONSERVATION COMMITTEE | | Locality | PETERBOROUGH | | Post town | Peterborough | | Postcode | PE1 1JY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH41 Peterborough | | Local authority | Peterborough | | Electoral ward | Central | | Westminster constituency | Peterborough | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90700000 - Environmental services ## Release History - 9 Nov 2022 at 13:41 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3137bbef-5d4d-432b-bcd5-b7cce1fee6f6 - 31 Oct 2022 at 10:59 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3137bbef-5d4d-432b-bcd5-b7cce1fee6f6 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3137bbef-5d4d-432b-bcd5-b7cce1fee6f6 9th November 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c01b551b-f102-4a41-a81f-6f69b0069466 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/42d380ec-62aa-43aa-afc6-a3fee212f71d Answers to questions raised during this bid process and contract response deadline extended to Friday 18th November 2022 by 16:00 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
