Description
1) Objective
Established in 1913, the vision of the British Ecological Society (BES) is for a world inspired, informed and influenced by ecology. With a mission to generate, communicate and promote ecological knowledge and solutions, they have various strategic goals: (1) communicate world-leading ecological science; (2) generate, synthesise and exchange ecological knowledge; (3) share the excitement and relevance of ecology; (4) inspire, engage and recognise talent; and (5) build a sustainable, resilient and efficient society.
The grant will support diverse formats that reach and engage public audiences in innovative, creative and impactful ways, whether through in-person events, digital formats, or physical resources. All Grants must be for projects that meet at least one of the top-level BES aims:
- Communicate evidence-based messaging for what ecology is, how nature works, and the use of ecological science as a solution to local and global challenges.
- Raise awareness and public understanding of ecological careers, their relevance and importance, breadth, and diversity, and show that anybody can become an ecologist.
- Share how individuals can take action to benefit the environment, themselves, and society.
- Increase the ability of others to deliver the above aims through outreach and engagement activities.
