[TABD] Darwin Initiative call for funding - Scoping, Fellowships and UKOTs Challenge Fund

DARWIN INITIATIVE CALL FOR FUNDING APPLICATIONS FOR SCOPING, FELLOWSHIP AND UK OVERSEAS TERRITORIES CHALLENGE FUND SCHEMES 2010

 

The Darwin Initiative seeks to help safeguard the world's biodiversity by drawing on UK biodiversity expertise to work with local partners in countries that are rich in biodiversity but poor in financial resources. Since its launch at the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio, the programme has already committed over £70 million to more than 650 biodiversity projects in nearly 150 countries.

 

Defra is now inviting applications from UK institutions and organisations for Scoping and Fellowship funding and for the new Overseas Territories Challenge Fund.  The guidance notes for applicants and application forms are available on the Darwin website at http://darwin.defra.gov.uk <http://darwin.defra.gov.uk/> . If you have difficulty accessing the information and forms please contact LTS International.  The documents are also available in large print on request.  

 

The closing date for all applications is Friday 19 February 2010.  Defra expects to announce the successful applicants towards the end of April 2010.

 

Further information on the Darwin Initiative, including lists of projects funded in previous rounds, and copies of project documents can also be found on our website.
