Description

The scope of this contract is the delivery of report content and potentially other incidental pieces of written work for RBG Kew. The primary focus is the 2026 State of the World's Plants and Fungi report, produced in close collaboration with Kew's Director of Science, Senior Science Editor and Creative Services Studio.

State of the World's Plants and Fungi report (to be published in June 2026)

The State of the World's Plants and Fungi (SOTWPF) project provides a regular digest of current knowledge on plants and fungi, and the threats they face, through a cutting-edge report and associated symposium. Further information about the project and pdfs of all previous reports can be found here: https://www.kew.org/science/state-of-the-worlds-plants-and-fungi. The project is one of RBG Kew's Corporate Objectives and must therefore be delivered on time and to an extremely high quality.

The 2026 report will include up to twelve chapters of text with associated illustrative images, infographics and captions. The total length of the report is aimed at around 60-80 pages, depending on the base content that comes through. Please see the 2023 report for an indication of chapter length.
