This year NERC expects to participate in a spending review that sets budgets for government departments, and ultimately research councils, for 2016-2020. A call for evidence has been launched which will inform decisions as to how NERC can most effectively invest in environmental science and innovation to continue to support UK priorities, balancing society's need to benefit from environmental resources whilst managing our environment responsibly.
All the detail and how to respond can be found on the NERC website.
This call for evidence asks NERC's community and stakeholders to take a prospective view in answering questions about future priorities in order to deliver our strategic societal challenges:
• benefitting from natural resources
• building resilience to environmental hazards
• managing environmental change.
