## Description

Defra is seeking an experienced supplier familiar with ecosystem approaches to fisheries management, to deliver evidence and best practice guidance based on international case studies\. This research will support implementation of Target 5 of the Convention on Biological Diversity \(CBD\) Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework \(KMGBF\), as well as considering outcomes relevant for other elements of the KMGBF \(e\.g\., Targets 9 and 10\)\.

This project was awarded by DEFRA\.
