CONSERVATION LEADERSHIP PROGRAMME (CLP) TEAM AWARDS 2021 FOR EARLY-CAREER CONSERVATIONISTS

Application is open to eligible individuals for the Conservation Leadership Programme (CLP) 2021 Team Awards.

The awards target exceptional teams of early-career conservationists leading high-priority projects across the world.

The CLP Team Awards are a competitive process through which CLP aims to identify, recognise and empower rising stars in conservation, who work mainly in the developing world.

Awards are granted to teams undertaking high-priority projects that involve not just research but also practical actions and community outreach to promote pro-conservation attitudes and achieve tangible, effective and long-lasting conservation solutions.

Awards

Through the new online application portal, eligible applicants can apply for one of three types of award:

Future Conservationist Awards (up to $15,000 per project)
Conservation Follow-Up Awards (up to $25,000 per project; available only to previous recipients of a Future Conservationist Award)
Conservation Leadership Award (up to $50,000 per project; available only to previous recipients of a Follow-Up Award).

Benefits

The award-winning teams will benefit from a project grant as well as global recognition for their exceptional work in conservation.
All team members will have opportunities to build connections with peers and access expert mentorship through the CLP Alumni Network.
Individuals from winning teams are also invited to participate in international, regional and online training courses to develop their conservation knowledge and skills.
The international Conservation Management & Leadership course is particularly renowned among CLP alumni.
