Description

This project will investigate the perception of the components of geodiversity and their role within nature. These components include rocks, fossils, minerals, landforms and the natural processes that form them. The successful contractor should develop and carry out a survey into the perception of geodiversity and its role within nature; and recommend possible avenues to highlight the role of geodiversity within nature. The proposed project will use social science techniques and methodologies. The target audience is anticipated as being a diverse, non-specialist or 'general public' audience. Understanding their perception is important as it subsequently impacts the development and overall success of Nature Recovery and Green Infrastructure projects.
