Consultancy Service – Plastic Waste Reduction for Con Dao Island

Want to make a positive difference to the future of people and our one shared home - the Earth? Working at WWF could be your opportunity of a lifetime.

All around the world, people are waking up to the deepening crisis of nature loss. A growing realization that nature is our life-support system. And that nobody will be spared from the impacts of its loss. Here at WWF, we are helping to tackle this enormous global challenge.

Our people come from hugely diverse backgrounds and with a variety of expertise, ranging from HR and finance to advocacy and conservation science. We welcome applications from anyone who believes they can help us create a better future for people and wildlife.

What we do

We are an independent conservation organization, striving to sustain the natural world for the benefit of people and wildlife. From individuals and communities to business and government, we are part of a growing coalition calling on world leaders to set nature on the path to recovery by 2030. Together, we seek to protect and restore natural habitats, stop the mass extinction of wildlife, and make the way we produce and consume sustainably.

WWF-Viet Nam has been actively developing its Plastic program to contribute to the reduction of plastic waste leakage into the oceans from Vietnamese territory, and also to advocate nationwide priorities in both national policies and mass public awareness for behaviour change.

With funds from the Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU), WWF-Viet Nam is implementing a project on mitigating marine plastic debris in Viet Nam. One output of the project is to reduce the deposition of plastic waste in the Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) of Con Dao island, via public and private collaborative interventions in decreasing single-use plastic consumption, removing current waste deposition and enhancing the islands’ solid waste management (SWM), with a focus on plastic waste.

To strive for the goal described above, the project is looking for a consultant to research and develop an Action Plan (AP) for Con Dao to implement plastic reduction activities from 2021 and onward.
