Description
Please read Call for Proposal document for full information.
SUMMARY • This request for proposals is for researcher(s) to manage and deliver WWF's 'Wholescape Action Research Project' (WARP) as part of WWF's 'Wholescape' programme. • The WARP comprises multiple components over an 18-month period, including: o Regular fieldwork in Norfolk, Pembrokeshire and the Forth basin; o Interim analysis and reporting to enable adaptive management of WWF's Wholescape programmes; o Analysis and reporting from each wholescape to deliver separate case studies for each wholescape region; o Overarching comparative analysis and reporting to capture findings across multiple wholescape regions. • The research will utilise a methodology that has been developed specifically for WWF's Wholescape programmes, using techniques including walking interviews and participatory mapping. • Candidates will require experience of environmental social science. Prior experience of participatory mapping would be an advantage, as would journalistic or story-telling experience. • The project will run from early 2024 until September 2025. We envisage approximately 1-2 days per month across that period, with more intensive work at the beginning, mid-point and end. • Researchers will intermittently feed back findings to the project team to enable adaptive management, specifically through a midpoint interim report. • The project will include: o Overall responsibility for conducting WARP research o Regular fieldwork in Norfolk from the outset, engaging with WWF staff, partner agencies and other stakeholders; o Fieldwork in Pembrokeshire with a particular focus on capturing learning about how WWF is building the delivery of a wholescape programme; o Fieldwork in Forth basin with a focus on capturing learning about how WWF is approaching the possibility of delivering a wholescape programme; o Responsibility for sub-contracting local research responsibilities in different locations, as required; o Analysis and reporting of WARP findings in each wholescape and at a meta-level. • This research will be conducted within an ongoing and developing programme of work, and will therefore involve elements of flexibility and uncertainty. To reflect this, we invite candidates to state how costs will be structured against the delivery of the different components of the project.
