The output topics will be decided with the project manager but will fit under the four themes of Cairngorms 2030 with a particular emphasis on those that pull different strands of the programme together. We would welcome suggestions from the contractor about the focus for individual outputs, and the format of the films to ensure that we are able to deliver these incredible stories in the most powerful way for our audiences. The outputs will also contribute towards the programme evaluation plan, with an emphasis on stories that highlight or contribute to people: - having greater wellbeing - being empowered to take climate action - feeling more connected to heritage - reporting that the Cairngorms is a better place to live, work and visit - having improved skills and livelihoods Primarily the short films produced will be shared on Cairngorms National Park social media platforms and hosted on YouTube. We require these pieces to be stand-alone case studies, with social media elements, to tell the story of Cairngorms 2030 as a transformative programme within the National Park",
