Wildlife Without Borders - Critically Endangered Animal Conservation Fund

 

The goal of this grants program is to reduce threats to highly endangered wildlife in their natural habitat. Proposals should identify specific conservation actions that have a high likelihood of creating durable benefits, such as: Protection of at-risk populations; Veterinary/wildlife health interventions; Activities related to execution of species survival plans; Strengthening local capacity to conserve the target species; Actions addressing unsustainable exploitation; Efforts to mitigate or stop wildlife-human conflict; and Rehabilitation and rescue. Project activities that emphasize data collection and status assessment should describe a direct link to management action, and explain how lack of information has been a key limiting factor for management action in the past. Proposals that do not identify how actions will reduce threats, or do not demonstrate a strong link between data collection and management action, have a lower likelihood of being selected. Proposed project work should occur within the species range, or, if work is to be conducted outside of the range, the proposal should show a clear relevance to its conservation.
