## About this tender

### Summary

WWF-UK is calling for research/political consultant proposals to deliver a summary and full report on how UK governments (UK/England, Scotland, Wales) food system polices can make food affordable for everyone in these nations, whilst supporting farmers and increasing people's access to nature.

Existing WWF-UK and other research identifies the most cost-beneficial food system policies in UK/England, Scotland and Wales, (WWF-UK Eating for Net Zero report, WWF-UK Rightsizing UK Agriculture report, National Food Strategy, Dasgupta review, Marmot review). The report(s) should expand on these by:

- contextualising these policies' cost-benefits in the current cost of living crisis, including at a constituency level,
- showcasing how these policies' cost-benefits can reduce inequalities between constituencies, including in the context of the current cost-of-living crisis
- showcasing how reducing these regional inequalities is itself cost-beneficial at a constituency and national level
- comparing the cost-benefits of these food system polices to policies on other areas (e.g. increasing urban housing and broadband in rural areas) at a national and constituency level

This report will support WWF-UK, WWF-Scotland and WWF-Cymru's food advocacy, including WWF-UK advocacy towards DLUHC and WWF-Scotland and WWF-Cymru advocacy on the Agriculture Bills and Food Bills/Plan in Scotland and Wales.

Deliverables:

- A ~50Pg comms designed public report outlining the full research results. This should include relevant graphical representations of the results.
- A ~10Pg policy makers summary report.

(Report comms design, including any graphics, will be undertaken by WWF-UK in-house).
