REQUIREMENTS:

To support WWF's Wholescape Programme development in Norfolk, along with several related large-scale conservation partnership initiatives, WWF requires the expertise of a contractor/consultant to conduct a data gathering exercise to consolidate and map existing regional and local projects, programmes, strategies and initiatives relating to the Triple Challenge, along with those proposed for the next two years.

The purpose of this work is to:
• Collate a list and descriptions of projects, programmes, strategies and initiatives currently or soon to be underway that will direct/influence decisions relating to the Triple Challenge across Norfolk.
• Create an initiative timeline and map for projects, programmes, strategies and initiatives that are underway, or in planning to be developed in the next two years across Norfolk, to understand where there may be overlap between initiatives.
• Enable WWF and partners across Norfolk to plan stakeholder and community engagement more cohesively and holistically, by understanding where these can be combined for several programmes. This is both to enable more efficient use of resources and to avoid engagement/ consultation fatigue.

The contractor should have an excellent understanding of local stakeholders, their sensitivities and their interests in their local environment. They will be expected to know where and how to access data on local/regional initiatives and any associated engagement reports, as well as being able to map these both spatially and temporally. Initiatives must cover land, fresh water, coast and marine without bias and, whilst they should be focussed within the Norfolk County boundary, relevant initiatives operating transboundary should also be included.

We are most concerned with large-scale regional initiatives, complex habitat and climate programmes and strategies/initiatives that are likely to require wide stakeholder and community engagement. We have an existing list of partners to be included but wish to look much wider than these.
