Research Fellow NATURESCAPES

NATURESCAPES will undertake an ambitious transdisciplinary programme of work to advance the knowledge frontier through novel assessment approaches capable of evaluating landscape scale synergies and trade-offs of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) assemblages for climate, biodiversity and communities. It will evaluate the socio-political conditions and dynamics of NBS implementation to identify the values, visions, governance, finance and engagement needed to support effective and just naturescapes and it will enable the transformative potential of NBS by examining, developing and trialling diverse theories of change, interventions and training designed to address systemic, structural and capacity constraints.
