📋 Tender Overview
Contract awarded for External scientific services in the field of social-ecological transformation research lot-0001, title: external scientific services in the field of socio-ecological transformation research, description: the subject of the contract is the development, empirical application, validation, and project-accompanying further development of an integrated socio-ecological research and evaluation framework for climate transformation measures in waters and floodplains. the service particularly includes the development of the necessary theoretical and methodological foundations, their application and verification based on selected pilot studies, the collection and evaluation of social science data, the analysis of governance and participation processes, as well as the examination of policy coherence and social policy needs for action. based on this, transferable recommendations for action and a blueprint for socially just and effective climate transformation measures are to be developed. the project assignment includes four work packages that are content-wise but not professionally separable. the crucial aspect is not the isolated mastery of individual sub-competencies, but their scientific integration and continuous application throughout the entire duration of the project. in the first work package (wp), among other things, an evaluation framework, an evaluation matrix, and the method of transdisciplinary knowledge integration are developed. these are not finished product solutions, but theoretical assumptions and methodological considerations that will be iteratively further developed during application in the second work package (wp). in this second work package (wp), the empirical application of the developed criteria will take place based on previously selected pilot studies. there is a scientific development, application, and validation process between the two wps. a decoupling of the individual work phases is not possible considering scientific work. the individual work packages are interlinked and cannot be evaluated in isolation. the scientific result is influenced by the development of evaluation criteria and methods, their application, the empirical analysis of the results, and the insights gained from them, which are to be jointly developed with practical stakeholders. estimated value excluding vat: 280328.82 eur.External scientific services in the field of social-ecological transformation research
