    Brief

    This qualitative social science research project seeks to understand the perspectives of landowners and managers regarding participation in the 30by30 conservation initiative. With a budget of £45,000 (excluding VAT) and a project timeline running until March 31, 2027, the research will focus on medium and large-sized landholdings where uptake is a priority, particularly among those capable of meeting silver and gold tier thresholds. The project aims to identify motivations, concerns, and barriers to participation to develop evidence-based strategies that increase engagement and adoption of the 30by30 delivery target among this landowner and manager audience. Researchers should have expertise in qualitative social science methodologies and stakeholder engagement research.
