[TABD] 2016 CLP Conservation Team Awards: Call for Applications

[Blanca Huertas]

Deadline: 7 December 2015

Applications for the 2016 Conservation Leadership Programme (CLP) Conservation Team Awards are now open! CLP aims to advance biodiversity conservation globally by building the leadership capabilities of early-career conservation professionals working in high-priority places with limited capacity to address conservation issues. This partnership initiative, including BirdLife International, Fauna & Flora International and the Wildlife Conservation Society, has been helping young conservationists across the world achieve their goals for 30 years. The programme works toward its aims by offering awards, training and mentoring support. CLP offers three levels of Conservation Awards:

  *   Future Conservationist Awards<http://maildogmanager.com/link.html?url=656&client=bpcp&campaign=223&email=blancahuertas@yahoo.com>: Up to $12,500 per project
