Workstream 6 is nicknamed PERENNIAL: a PERsistent, Evolving, REpository for Network Nature’s Impact-modelling, Analytics and machine-Learning.

Inspired by and building on the work of the NICE project, Workstream 6 seeks to develop an open repository of model-able scientific knowledge on sources of problems and their potential nature-based solutions (NbS). It is curated by Task Force 1, who provide continuity between EU-funded projects with a view to maintain the repository as a 'living resource' into the future. 

Nicknamed PERENNIAL, the Workstream seeks to distinguish between early/speculative knowledge and knowledge ready for application. There's also discussion of including contextual data, such as costs, to make help make the repository as useful as possible.

PERENNIAL is in its initial early stages and Task Force 1 members interested in this topic are encouraged to join by contacting TF1@networknature.eu 


Workstream 6 is coordinated by:
