Deadline: 15-Apr-23
The Elephant Managers Association (EMA) has launched its Small Grant Program that will focus on field-based elephant conservation projects in Africa and Asia.
Priorities
Projects should have significant impact towards resolving current or urgent elephant-related issues. Higher priority will be given to proposals that:
- Provide education and community outreach.
- Provide capacity-building in local communities.
- Improve captive elephant management and welfare.
Furthermore, the following funding and impact statements will be considered in prioritizing the proposals:
- EMA funding will support a new or unique project, OR seed money for a new part of an existing project.
- Outcomes of the project can be transferred to other situations (wild and/or captive elephants) impacting a large number of elephants, people, projects, etc.
Funding Information
- The EMA Board of Directors will award two grants for $1,500 each.
Eligibility Criteria
- This opportunity is open to anyone including keepers, conservationists, and researchers.
