## Description

Forest Research is seeking costed proposals for carrying out research into young people's socio-cultural values in relation to Trees outside Woodland and landscape change, in accordance with the attached Request for Quotation\. As part of a Defra-funded project \('Understanding the public value of Trees outside Woodlands: Peri-Urban and Rural \(ToWPUR\) - Forest Research'\), we are seeking to procure research that addresses the following research questions: • How do young people experience and care for Trees Outside Woodland that are part of a specific peri-urban or rural landscape? • What values do young people hold around these ToWPUR? • What can we learn about how these values have formed including the key influences on value formation? • How are these values activated and negotiated in discussions around landscape change, for example, the loss \(whether by felling or by encapsulation through tree planting at scale\) or addition of ToWPUR? The required outputs would include a summary report, including an account of the methodology, findings and recommendations tailored for a \(non-social scientist\) policy and practice audience, as well as a video dissemination for a general audience\. Note that the procurement of this research is being conducted using a two-stage process - see attached RFQ for details\. Additional information: To advise that you intend to make a submission in response to this Notice or any questions you may have regarding this RFQ should be submitted by email to jen\.clements@forestresearch\.gov\.uk by 15\.00hrs on Thursday 7th March
