Notice Title

Species Evidence Base v2

Notice Description

The Species Evidence Base (SEB) is one of the flagship evidence projects underpinning the NRN. Forming a single repository for critical information on habitats, pressures, distribution, climate change vulnerability, recovery actions, and more for over 3100 species, SEB will inform key areas of NE's species recovery activity (inc. LNRS, NRPs, ELMs, Species Recovery Projects, and Species Conservation Stratefies) and help to ensure that we develop a NRN that delivers our species targets. Currently, we are building a version of SEB for NE use. Our longer term aim is to develop SEB into a web-based free service, supporting the wider conservation sector.
