IUCN SSC Specialist Group Grants
The Chicago Zoological Society makes annual grants to IUCN Species
Survival Commission Specialist Groups for small projects identified in
Action Plans or other group priority setting exercises. There are two
grant cycles, one with awards in May and the other with awards in
October. The Fund will support projects up to $5,000.
Priority will be given to projects that are clearly of critical need for
species or habitats, that are likely to provide good, immediate results.
Education /communications projects are welcome. Strict biological
research projects are not a priority for this fund, unless there can be a
direct application of the results.
Applications must be made through the SSG Executive
Committee. Contact Rachel Cavanagh, SSG Programme Officer
(address on p19) for details.
