CEFAS25-39 RFQ for Photographer & Videographer Services for Caribbean Survey 2026

To view this opportunity please go to https://defra-family.force.com/s/Welcome You will need to log in or create a new supplier account. The opportunity can then be found searching 'CEFAS25-39 Photographer & Videographer Services for Caribbean Survey 2026 The Blue Belt Programme is the UK Government’s international marine conservation programme. It works closely with 10 UK Overseas Territories (UKOT) to assist them in creating and maintaining healthy and productive marine ecosystems. This programme has been central to the UK Government’s ambition of leading action to tackle the serious global problems of overfishing, species extinction and climate change. Protecting over 4 million kilometres squared of ocean, the programme is vital in meeting the UK’s commitments through the Global Biodiversity Framework, the 30by30 target, and UN Ocean Decade. In January 2026, the Blue Belt programme will undertake a scientific expedition around the Caribbean Islands of Anguilla, Turks and Caicos, and the Cayman Islands, collectively representing around 365,000 km2 of UKOT seas. The survey will provide scientific research and capacity building across several scientific disciplines, including oceanographic, hydrographic and ecological studies. Research will include seafloor mapping, ocean biogeochemistry, and marine biodiversity monitoring. There will also be one day spent in port at each territory, providing an opportunity for engagement with UKOT communities and to accept visitors on board. Aligning with the 10-year anniversary of the Blue Belt Programme in 2026, the Caribbean Survey presents a significant and rare opportunity to showcase UK marine science capability and outreach in the Caribbean UK Overseas Territories. It builds on the success of previous surveys, such as the Discovery 159 expedition around the islands of Ascension and St Helena in 2022. The research generated from this expedition continues to support these territories in managing and protecting their marine protected areas. The expedition also raised national and international awareness of the programme through an award-winning documentary ‘Voyage of Discovery’ narrated by Ellie Goulding, extensive media coverage, and a digital campaign reaching over 14,000 accounts. We are keen to build on this success with the communication outputs from the 2026 Caribbean expedition. We are looking for an experienced, passionate storyteller who can communicate our story through powerful imagery and film footage to a diverse range of audiences, from school children, students, scientists, environmentalists, and policy makers. The details In total, the survey will last 44 days (12 days per Overseas Territory plus transit between) and will provide scientific and capacity building support.
