Description

The Ocean Country Partnership Programme (OCPP) is funded through official development assistance (ODA) as part of the UK's £500 million Blue Planet Fund. Through the OCPP, the UK government partners with ODA-eligible countries to deliver tangible and positive impacts on the livelihoods of coastal communities that depend on healthy marine ecosystems. The programme supports countries to strengthen marine science expertise, develop science-based policy and management tools, and create educational resources for coastal communities.

Cefas require the Supplier to deliver, from previously developed content, a regional marine litter training programme, in collaboration with experts from Ghana and, where appropriate, other African countries, as well as the UK. It will involve virtual meetings with the various working groups including with the Ghana National Plastic Action Partnership (NPAP); virtual and in-person workshops, and some practical hands-on training for those persons who will then go on to be trainers themselves.

The training programme will be three short courses of one month each, designed for undergraduate, and graduate students, as well as other personnel from various sectors interested in learning about Marine Litter in West Africa.
