Description
1) Objective
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (Service) mission is to work with others to conserve, protect and enhance fish, wildlife and plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. The International Affairs Program delivers on this mission through its financial assistance programs by supporting strategic projects that deliver measurable conservation results for priority species and their habitats around the world. In response to the decline of ape populations in Africa and Asia, the U.S. Government enacted the Great Ape Conservation Act of 2000.
The Act provides for the conservation and protection of apes by supporting conservation programs in countries within their ranges and the projects of persons and organizations with demonstrated expertise in ape conservation. The Service works closely with national governments, U.S. agencies, and a range of other partners to ensure a strategic, results-based approach to ape conservation in Africa and Asia. This funding opportunity aligns with the Service mission.
2) Eligibility
Applicants can be individuals, multi-national secretariats, foreign national and local government agencies, non-profit non-governmental organizations, for-profit organizations, public and private institutions of higher education, U.S. territorial governments, and Tribes and Tribal organizations.

Actions must take place in Africa.
