– An innovative interactive tool or tools allowing users to select multiple options for nature recovery, food production and consumption, and nature-based climate solutions, and see the consequences and options.

WWF expects the project to be delivered between January 2020 and April 2020. Proposals should be phased accordingly. Please refer to the Terms of Reference and attached documents for further details on scope, terms and instructions for application.
