Description
1) Objective
The Small Cat Action Fund (SCAF) is a grants program supporting in situ conservation and research activities on many of the 31 small cat species. SCAF was established by Panthera and is operated with oversight from the IUCN Cat Specialist Group.
Applicants whose proposed work includes any of the seven largest cat species along with one or more of the small cats should apply to the Kaplan Graduate Awards (if they are graduate students and otherwise eligible). If the project does not explicitly include those seven species (even if they occur in the area), the application should be made to the Small Cat Action Fund.
2) Eligibility
There are no details on eligibility for this grant.
3) Location
There are no restrictions on location other than the presence of the target species in the wild.
4) Budget
The amount of funding awarded varies, up to a maximum of $15,000 per year. Preference will be given to requests specifically for field conservation and research activities, including equipment, transportation, and local salaries. Panthera will consider salaries, per diems, and stipends for local field personnel only; we will not fund salaries for core administrative and management personnel.
5) Application
The application deadline is 15 March 2024. The application process opens with a call for Letters of Inquiry (LOIs). The LOI asks for the title and location of the proposed project, the target species, the project budget and the amount requested from Panthera, and an abstract of the project. Qualified students who submit LOIs for projects that appear to be a good fit for the program will be asked to submit a full application and supporting documents. Both LOIs and applications must be submitted though Panthera’s grant management system, Foundant.
