Description
1) Objective
Funds will be awarded for work that aims to generate the scientific evidence that will facilitate the conservation of a species. The evidence may include testing a conservation intervention to address a particular threat, or answer a key conservation question, which will enable conservationists to undertake critical conservation action. Recently funded projects include trialing livestock insurance schemes, learning more about dietary needs to inform habitat creation, testing wildlife bridge designs and testing conservation translocation methods. They do not accept any grant applications – for either worldwide or UK work – on bird species.
High priority projects include:
- Gathering evidence needed to undertake necessary mitigation work
- Using scientific evidence to get changes made to local, national or international policy
- Devising and testing a new methodology for monitoring a species or group of species
- Priority is also given to applications for conservation and research work on species classified as endangered, critically endangered and extinct in the wild by the IUCN.
2) Eligibility
Applications are welcomed from scientific researchers and those working in the field of practical conservation. The project leader should be based either within an NGO or a university research department.
3) Location
They only accept grant requests from applicants already working and established in either the UK, UK overseas territories or any country NOT classified by the World Bank as high-income.
4) Budget
Conservation Insight Grants are for projects focusing on endangered species for up to two years. They award funds between £3,000 and £10,000 per annum up to a maximum total of £20,000.
5) Application
Completed pre- applications should be submitted by 23.59 (UK time) on Thursday 29th May 2025.
