Description

The proposed contract is for a piece of evaluation work focussed on Natural England's uplands programme. For NE to develop effective interventions in the uplands and target them successfully, there is a need for increased understanding of the wider system in which they operate. The work will use a systems thinking approach to address this need, by mapping the uplands system and developing an interactive Bayesian model which will inform future interventions. This will also act as a case study for applying systems thinking in a real-life context, with the potential to inform future work within NE and the environment sector.
