Tender description

A self-contained nature finance game that allows players to virtually develop nature recovery projects funded using private and blended finance. Using the GFI Investment Readiness Toolkit as a framework the game will start by presenting players with options such as whether they want to play a seller or buyer, followed by various seller or buyer scenarios. Once a player has picked a role they will be taken through the process of developing a nature recovery project using private and blended finance from the start through to signing legal documents and the work starting on the ground. They will do this by working through a series of scenarios. They will have to complete every scenario satisfactorily to be able to move onto the next scenario. Reasons for not completing a scenario properly will be given, as will explanations of why they have completed a scenario correctly. Where possible there will be more than one correct way to complete a scenario. The game will be for Natural England so will focus on the roles that NE staff are likely to play at each stage of a projects development but will also be able to be used by Environment Agency and Forestry Commission staff carrying out nature finance related roles.
