Commissioned Works

The Forum largely works through co-ordination and facilitation. However the Forum has a small project budget from which it can commission research or actions that will help advance understanding, learning and the application of good practice in protected landscape management. To date these are:

 

Diversity work

SWPLF co-ordinated a contract to define catchment areas for SW NPAs/AONBs and provide data on under represented groups, barriers to participation and actions to address them.
