Description
1) Objective
Wildlife Acoustics’ mission is to support efforts in conservation and environmental stewardship. They want to enable those involved in animal biology, research and conservation to do their best work easily and quickly. To that end, Wildlife Acoustics has established a grant program to support bioacoustics research efforts from chiropteran, avian, terrestrial, amphibious and marine wildlife, to everything else in between. Every quarter, Wildlife Acoustics will be giving away up to $4,000 of product to grant recipients worldwide. If they choose to make the results public, recipients will also have their work featured on our website and social media channels. Grant recipients must be associated with a charitable, educational or other tax-exempt organization.
Consideration will be given to projects that meet the following criteria: (1) Project makes significant use of bioacoustics for data collection and/or analysis; (2) The work advances scientific knowledge and contributes to long-term conservation; (3) The grant award would have significant impact on the success of the project; (4) The grant request provides adequate information to evaluate the project, including detailed expected outcomes and use of bioacoustics data to support those outcomes; (5) and the project should begin in the year that the application is submitted, or in the following year if the application is submitted in the off-season.
2) Eligibility
Eligible applicants are: Not for Profit and Non governmental Organisations.
3) Location
Actions can take place in various countries worldwide.
4) Budget
Every quarter, Wildlife Acoustics will give away up to $12,000 worth of eligible products to grant recipients worldwide. Applicants may each request up to $4,000 worth of products and software licenses. Recipients also have the opportunity to have their work featured on our website and social media channels.
5) Application
Applicants need to download the Grant Application and complete all sections in English (keep the responses to each question to 200 words). They must include one letter of recommendation but you may submit up to 3 letters of recommendation and/or reference that they feel would be helpful in evaluating the application. These may be separate attachments and must be in English. They also need to include a copy of the organization’s certificate/letter of tax exemption that shows tax-exempt and charitable or educational status.
