Embedding natural capital approach into policy interventions key to economic development at a local level such as spatial planning frameworks, introducing a net gain environment policy as well as creating local natural capital investment plans has been suggested as key to maintaining the environment while driving growth. Such approaches will aim to achieve economic growth which considers local needs and values, but is also resilient due to being underpinned by the benefits of well managed/maintained natural capital. However such an approach is still being testedThe unique natural assets of the Liverpool City Region (LCR) and its opportunities for growth (i.e. a natural coastline and estuary of international conservation importance alongside large scale wind generation, high potential for tidal energy and major commercial and maritime development provides a unique and interesting testbed for the natural capital approach. Its rich natural assets and nationally renowned environmental leadership and knowledge means the city region can provide a significant contribution to the national debate on the natural capital approach.This placement hosted by Nature Connected (the govt. approved Local Nature Partnership for the LCR) to support them in their ambition to embed a natural capital approach in the Liverpool City Region. It will make recommendations for the implementation of the 25 Year Plan for the Environment at a local level by contributing to and learning from the development of a natural capital approach in LCR. Nature Connected will support the placement through its board and various member organisation. Organisation will play a lead role in support of different aspects of the project, based on their expertise. Nature Connected Membership of key environmental and business organisations and the six local councils provides a key network to support the placement.The overall method will combine existing research around the Natural Capital approach, information on relevant policies for its implementation and local knowledge and perceptions through 3 actions: Action 1: A review of existing research knowledge, policies and how they are relevant to Natural Capital Approach in the Liverpool City Region. This will draw on outputs from research programmes and initiatives around Natural Capital and Ecosystem Services, (i.e. NEA, VNN and BESS) as well as more recent projects which are now testing the implementation of the Natural Capital approach such as the NERC funded SWEEP. This information will be considered in the context of the Liverpool City Region and be used to inform the workshops and interviews as well as the case study approach. Action 2: Workshops and Interviews with key stakeholders and decision makers (i.e. planners, Combined Authority staff etc.) from the Liverpool City Region. around the natural capital approach. These are aimed at both increasing the awareness of the natural capital approach through knowledge transfer as well as gathering information on local knowledge and perceptions. Action 3: Applying a natural capital approach to development case studies, including full social cost accounting the for different decision scenarios/outcomes and Consideration policy inventions, which may impact on decisions and may provide/facilitate funding mechanisms for investment in natural capitalThis will result in a transfer of knowledge to key Liverpool City Region Stakeholders on the natural capital approach and allow an exploration of the barriers and opportunities to aligning and integrating a natural capital policy approach. It should also provide recommendation to feed into the national debate on devolution and local implementation of the 25 year for the environment. All of which should support Nature Connected in it ambition to embed natural capital with key policies within the city region such as the spatial plan, develop a net gain environment policy alongside a natural capital investment plan

将自然资本方法纳入对地方经济发展至关重要的政策干预措施，如空间规划框架、引入净收益环境政策以及制定地方自然资本投资计划，被认为是在推动增长的同时维护环境的关键。这些方法的目标是实现既考虑到当地需求和价值，又由于得到妥善管理/维护的自然资本的好处的支持而具有弹性的经济增长。利物浦城市地区（LCR）独特的自然资产及其发展机会（即具有国际保护重要性的天然海岸线和河口，以及大规模风力发电，潮汐能的高潜力以及主要的商业和海洋开发）为自然资本方法提供了独特而有趣的试验台。其丰富的自然资产和全国知名的环境领导和知识意味着城市地区可以为全国关于自然资本方法的辩论做出重大贡献。该项目由Nature Connected（政府批准的LCR本地自然伙伴关系）主办，以支持他们在利物浦城市地区嵌入自然资本方法的雄心。它将提出建议，在地方一级执行《25年环境计划》，促进和借鉴LCR中自然资本方法的发展。自然互联将通过其董事会和各成员组织为该项目提供支持。组织将根据他们的专业知识，在支持项目的不同方面发挥主导作用。主要环境和商业组织以及六个地方议会的会员资格为支持安置提供了重要的网络。总体方法将结合围绕自然资本方法的现有研究，实施相关政策的信息以及当地的知识和看法，通过三个行动：行动1：回顾利物浦城市地区现有的研究知识、政策以及它们与自然资本方法的相关性。这将利用围绕自然资本和生态系统服务（即NEA、VNN和BESS）的研究方案和倡议的产出，以及最近正在测试自然资本方法实施情况的项目，如NERC资助的SWEEP。这些信息将在利物浦城市地区的背景下进行考虑，并用于研讨会和访谈以及案例研究方法。行动2：与利物浦城市地区的主要利益相关者和决策者（即规划者、联合管理局工作人员等）进行研讨会和访谈。围绕着自然资本方法。这些活动旨在通过知识转移提高对自然资本方法的认识，并收集有关当地知识和观念的信息。行动3:将自然资本方法应用于发展案例研究，包括对不同决策情景/结果的全面社会成本核算和考虑政策发明；这可能会影响决策，并可能提供/促进自然资本投资的融资机制。这将导致知识转移到利物浦城市地区关键的自然资本方法利益相关者，并允许探索调整和整合自然资本政策方法的障碍和机会。它还应提供建议，以促进关于权力下放和地方执行环境25年的全国辩论。所有这些都应该支持“自然互联”将自然资本与城市区域内的关键政策（如空间规划、制定净收益环境政策和自然资本投资计划）相结合的雄心
