Rufford Small Grants for Nature Conservation (Deadline: Ongoing)
The Rufford Small Grants Foundation provides grants of up to £6,000 for small-scale or pilot nature conservation projects in less-developed countries around the world. Projects must have a nature/biodiversity conservation focus and be located outside the first world. The Foundation’s scope of interest includes conservation work focused on threatened habitats; animals in their habitat; and other organisms such as plants, fungi, or insects.
 
Projects that offer opportunities to train local team members in the running of the project and that include an educational element for local communities are strongly preferred. Individuals or small groups are eligible to apply and applications can be made throughout the year. www.ruffordsmallgrants.org/rsg
