Description

JNCC is a delivery partner for the Ocean Country Partnership Programme (OCPP), a UK government-led programme under the Blue Planet Programme. More information on the OCPP can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/blue-planet-fund/ocean-country-partnership-programme-ocpp.

JNCC are working on a package of support for the West African Region, which includes undertaking training and capacity building to strengthen and enhance their preparedness for marine pollution emergency response. As part of this, JNCC require a suitable contractor to support our OCPP team to deliver a package of sub regional oiled wildlife response (OWR) deliverables, targeting Western Africa, including Senegal, The Gambia and Mauritania. The successful tenderer will be working with a small team of people to deliver elements of oiled wildlife response support both remotely and in person to provide:
1. First responder and OWR training in country, to provide skills and capacity for stakeholders at the sub-regional scale to respond to spill events and protect biodiversity;
2. Facilitation of a Western African sub-regional OWR workshop to compile existing OWR knowledge and materials and create a roadmap for production of a sub-regional OWR response plan;
3. Using the findings of the workshop, a draft OWR response plan for sub-regional Western Africa to aid OWR preparedness and response planning, including identification of funding sources to continue progress towards this sub-regional goal.
