## Summary

The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds is seeking tenders for the "People's Plan for Nature" project, which focuses on public engagement and advocacy surrounding nature conservation in the UK. This initiative is tied to the Wild Isles project, a partnership with WWF, and aims to convene a participatory process prior to the broadcast of the accompanying natural history series in early 2023. The open procedure for this tender, with a total value of £350,000, is currently in the tender stage, and submissions are due by 6 June 2022. The contract period will commence on 13 June 2022 and is set to conclude by 1 December 2023. This opportunity falls under the category of research and development services and related consultancy services and is based in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), that specialize in public engagement, environmental advocacy, or community-led initiatives. Those involved in creative participatory processes and decision-making models will find it particularly advantageous to compete for this project, which encourages collaboration and innovative solutions aimed at fostering a nature-positive culture across the UK. Suppliers are invited to bid for one or multiple lots within the project framework, enhancing the potential for diverse business engagement in environmental conservation efforts.

## Notice

The Wild Isles project, built around a landmark natural history TV series to be broadcast in early 2023, is a unique partnership between WWF and the RSPB. The project aims to inspire people in the UK to value and protect nature. It will encompass a full programme of activity incorporating public engagement, mobilisation, supporter growth, campaigns and advocacy. We're developing a first of its kind mobilisation programme built around the documentary series to inspire and activate audiences to take the urgent action needed to save the nature of our wild isles. It will also play a crucial enabling role in creating the nature-positive society so crucial to the political, economic and systems change needed to save nature and keep the world below 1.5C. To kick start this mobilisation programme, it is proposed we convene and run a participatory process in the run up to the broadcast of Wild Isles in 2023. This programme of work is called the People's Plan for Nature. The People's Plan for Nature will create a plan for everyone to work towards a nature-positive UK. The plan will be developed through a creative, innovative and inclusive participatory process. This will include an open idea generation phase and a citizens' assembly on nature. We believe adopting a participatory model is crucial to generate a public mandate for the protection and restoration of UK nature. We propose to run a participatory process which is drawn from the RAPID model of decision making, originally proposed by Bain & Co in a corporate context and adapted by the OECD's Future of Democracy Network for participatory democracy projects. We are inviting suppliers to tender for the delivery of this process. There are three lots, and suppliers can submit for one or multiple lots. RSPB is leading procurement for this project on behalf of the project partnership.
