Description

The marine Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment programme (mNCEA) is Defra's flagship 3-year research and development programme that will provide a robust evidence base, suite of tools and a framework where ecological, societal, and economic information is brought together in a holistic way.

During this first year of the 3 year mNCEA programme, Natural England is leading a number of projects concerning both the application and innovation in natural capital approaches, and the transformation of how the marine natural capital evidence base in captured, analysed and brought together.

Communication between technical experts from different scientific disciplines, policy advisors, wider stakeholders and decision makers is crucial to the success of the natural capital approach. It is therefore essential that the technical reports produced by experts within the mNCEA are accompanied by short summaries that communicate, in an accessible and appealing way, the key elements of complex and detailed work that ranges from conceptual frameworks to ecosystem models to the outcomes of analysis of qualitative and quantitative data addressing a suite of ecological, social and economic research questions.

The purpose of this contract is to engage support for technical specialists to help them develop the necessary skills to improve the way in which they summarise the outcomes of their research in a succinct, visually appealing and easy to understand way.
