Neotropical Birding and Conservation awards small and medium-sized grants for conservation action or research that has an intended measurable benefit.
The award scheme has been described in several articles in Neotropical Birding which can be read here, here, and here.
Please note that while the NBC strives to fund projects in every country within our region, it is occasionally necessary to restrict support in a particular country due to circumstances beyond our control.
To apply for a Neotropical Birding and Conservation Conservation award:
Grants of $1,500 and $3,000 (US Dollars) are available subject to certain conditions. Grants are occasionally awarded for higher amounts (up to $5000). Please contact the Club (see below) to confirm the availability and criteria for higher amount awards.
Applications are assessed twice yearly, with deadlines on 1st February and 1st July. An initial assessment is made by a Conservation Awards sub-committee and sent for peer-review and the applications that best match the aims of the awards programme then have to be approved by the Council of the Neotropical Birding and Conservation. You will be informed of the outcome of your application as soon as possible thereafter (usually within 2 months of the application deadline).
