Conservation Follow-Up Awards

Call for Applications for 2010 Awards: Deadline 13th November 2009

The Conservation Leadership Programme offers continuation funding, which is available only to previous CLP (formally BPCP) award winners, in the form of Conservation Follow-up and Conservation Leadership Awards. Applications for continuation funding will only be considered once a full report has been received for the initial projects.

Conservation Follow-up Awards are aimed at exceptional teams with individuals who want to address a conservation issue raised by recommendations in a project the programme has previously supported. The project should allow team members to go beyond basic surveying, analysis and awareness-raising, and develop their networking, education, decision-making, policy, communication and conservation leadership skills and experience. There are approximately 5 of these awards on offer annually, each worth up to $25,000 each.

As part of the award, one member from each team is selected to represent their project at the CLP's international training course and the International Congress of Conservation Biology (ICCB). The training is aimed at developing innovative project management, education, facilitation and communication skills. Attendance at the annual ICCB enables participants to link to a strong, professional network, facilitating future international collaboration.
