NAVIGATE is a NERC-funded project based at Aberystwyth University and the University of East Anglia. The project builds on the findings of the recent Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) ‘Values Assessment’ report and aims to evaluate diverse disciplinary and policy understandings of the multiple values of nature to provide clarity on value concepts and how values can be integrated into biodiversity economics and decision making.
