The Conservation Leadership Programme (CLP) is now accepting
applications for 2010 Conservation Awards. The CLP aims to promote the
development of emerging conservation leaders and equip them with the
capacity to address the most pressing conservation issues of our time.
We do this by providing small grants, training, mentoring and networking
opportunities, where award winners gain practical skills and experience
and develop leadership capabilities through the implementation of
projects focused on high-priority biodiversity conservation issues. 

The CLP is a partnership of four international conservation
organizations - Birdlife International, Conservation International,
Fauna & Flora International and the Wildlife Conservation Society - with
support from multinational energy company BP. The CLP has been helping
young conservationists to achieve their goals and move into positions of
influence within the conservation sector - and 2010 marks the 25th
Anniversary of this highly successful program! 

This year we are happy to announce that we will be accepting
applications from teams working across Africa, Asia, Eastern and
South-eastern Europe, the Middle East, the Pacific, Latin America and
the Caribbean. Countries that are NOT ELIGIBLE include those countries
designated as high-income economies

island nations in the Pacific and Caribbean and some countries in the
Middle East. If you have any questions about eligible countries, please
contact the CLP.

$12,500 each

<http://www.maildogmanager.com/link.html?url=307&client=bpcp&campaign=10
2&email=b.huertas at nhm.ac.uk> for detailed eligibility criteria,
guidelines and an application form. Please forward this announcement to
other interested individuals, organizations or academic institutions. 

Successful applicants will: 1.) Develop the knowledge, skills and
abilities of team members; 2.) Implement a focused, high-priority
conservation project combining research and action; and 3.) Contribute
to the long-term success of local conservation efforts. 

All teams submitting an application will receive feedback on their
proposal*. Applicants are strongly encouraged to contact a member of the
CLP team well before the application deadline for advice on project
eligibility, methods and project activities. The CLP can also put teams
in touch with local partner offices or other experts who can provide
additional advice. 

A representative from each award-winning team will be invited to attend
an international training event and the International Congress for
Conservation Biology in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in June/July 2010
organized by the CLP. These events will allow winners to share ideas and
experience, develop new skills and network with their peers and experts.

process, please send an email with your name, contact details, countries
and regions where you have worked and taxonomic expertise.
