We are pleased to announce a Call for Proposals for the 2014 Snow Leopard Conservation Grant Program. The proposal form and timeline are available
here .
Pre-proposal deadline is 25 July 2013.
The Snow Leopard Conservation Grant Program is designed to support education, research, or conservation projects on snow leopards that meet the needs identified in the Snow Leopard Survival Strategy (SLSS) . . Applicants are researchers, educators, or conservationists from a snow leopard range country, international professionals working closely with, or hosted by, range-country counterparts, and post-graduates of any nationality pursuing a higher degree and whose proposals are compatible with needs identified in the SLSS document. Proposals focusing on grassroots conservation or applied research will be viewed preferentially.
This grant program began in 2008. Grants are funded by the Snow Leopard Trust, the Snow Leopard Conservancy, the Whitley Fund for Nature and the Snow Leopard Network. Prior to 2008, the Snow Leopard Trust funded a Small Grants program and links to the final reports for these grant-funded projects are also available below. The current grant cycle runs from 1 January - 31 December, with initial applications due in July.
