Calls for Production of Short Films to Promote Responsible Waste Management (Sri Lanka)

UNDP Sri Lanka invites qualified service providers to submit proposals for developing and producing short films focusing on waste management. This initiative is part of a wider project aimed at promoting sustainable, low-carbon municipal solid waste management solutions. The deadline for proposal submission is 16 November 2026 at 04:30 AM (New York time). This RFP is part of the project ‘Scale-up and Sustain the Low-Carbon Municipal Solid Waste Management and Resource Recovery in Sri Lanka,’ implemented by UNDP in collaboration with the Ministry of Public Administration, Provincial Councils and Local Government. The project aims to promote sustainable waste management practices in selected Local Authorities in the Central and Sabaragamuwa Provinces. The films will form part of a digital communications campaign to enhance awareness of waste segregation, management, and social responsibility. The selected service provider will be contracted to produce three creative and thought-provoking short films. These films should invoke a strong emotional response and encourage social responsibility and behavioral change. Specific financial terms are not detailed in the source. This initiative provides an opportunity for creative professionals to contribute to a critical environmental cause. By producing impactful films, the service provider will play a key role in transforming public attitudes and behaviors towards waste management, thereby supporting sustainable community practices.
