Over the past three decades, WFN has channelled an impressive \u00a323 million to support 200 conservation leaders across 80 countries in the Global South.<\/p>\n<p>The organization&#8217;s mission is to empower courageous individuals who are leading local solutions to global environmental challenges.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Whitley Award<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Whitley Award offers \u00a350,000 in project funding over one year. This substantial grant aims to support grassroots conservation initiatives that create lasting benefits for wildlife, landscapes, and local communities.<\/p>\n<p>The award is designed to recognize and amplify the efforts of passionate conservationists who are making a significant impact in their regions.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Eligibility Criteria<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>WFN has established clear eligibility criteria to ensure that the Whitley Award reaches deserving candidates:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Geographic Focus: Projects must be based in countries not classified as High Income Economies by the World Bank, with some exceptions for Equatorial Guinea and certain Caribbean island nations.<\/li>\n<li>Local Leadership: Applicants should be nationals of the country where they work or have long-term residency (15+ years) with a demonstrable commitment to the region.<\/li>\n<li>Grassroots Approach: The fund seeks conservationists who are deeply embedded in or from the communities where they work, preferably leading locally incorporated NGOs.<\/li>\n<li>Communication Skills: Applicants must be proficient in English and possess the ability to inspire and collaborate with others.<\/li>\n<li>Team Support: While individuals win the awards, they must be backed by an appropriate team or organization.<\/li>\n<li>Scientific Foundation: Projects should be grounded in scientific evidence and understanding.<\/li>\n<li>Community Involvement: Work that involves and benefits local communities and stakeholders is essential.<\/li>\n<li>Ecosystem Focus: Preference is given to ecosystem or landscape-level projects, although flagship species projects are considered if they have broader impacts.<\/li>\n<li>Proven Track Record: Applicants must demonstrate past success and an evidence-based approach.<\/li>\n<li>Sustainability: Projects should have long-term viability beyond the award period.<\/li>\n<li>Financial Management: We prefer organizations with audited accounts, as this demonstrates their ability to manage substantial funding.<\/li>\n<li>Need and Impact: We prioritize projects where the award will make a significant difference and can benefit from increased publicity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>What WFN Will Not Fund<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To maintain focus on its core mission, WFN has outlined several areas it does not fund, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Projects in High Income Economies<\/li>\n<li>Expatriate-led initiatives<\/li>\n<li>Pure academic research or MSc\/PhD fieldwork<\/li>\n<li>Expeditions and conference attendance<\/li>\n<li>Start-up or pilot projects<\/li>\n<li>Absentee leadership<\/li>\n<li>Joint applications or third-party nominations<\/li>\n<li>Pure rural\/economic development without clear conservation benefits<\/li>\n<li>Land purchase or building construction<\/li>\n<li>Captive breeding (with some exceptions)<\/li>\n<li>Government employees (with some flexibility)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Application Process<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Interested conservationists can apply online through the WFN application portal on <a
