Description
1) Objective
HawkWatch International is a non-profit organization that works to protect raptors and our shared environment through scientific research and public education. As a non-advocacy group, they tackle the issues one at a time by looking at the latest data to balance smart development and the need for conservation. This grant supports projects addressing global raptor research and conservation priorities. The grant invests in projects led by citizens of developing countries with the aim of increasing diversity and inclusivity in conservation while building local capacity. In particular, this grant aims to fund projects that are:
- Located in high-priority countries for raptor research and conservation, broadly Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia, as well as many island countries;
- Focused on a single species of raptor that is recognized as a high priority species for research and conservation (according to RCPI);
- Led by an applicant that is a citizen of the country and who is associated with a registered NGO and/or university in the country where the project will take place.
2) Eligibility
Projects must be located in high-priority countries for raptor research and conservation (mainly Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, or Southeast Asia), focus on a single species of raptor, and be led by an applicant who is associated with a registered NGO and/or university in the country where the project will take place.
