New small grants initiative will support activities related to great apes conservation and development

[Anne Schulthess]

The People and Conservation Learning Group (PCLG) is excited to announce that with support from the Arcus Foundation, they are piloting a new small grants initiative.

Applications are now open for PCLG small grants that address important great apes related conservation and development issues in Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of Congo or Uganda. PCLG small grants aim to foster multi-stakeholder collaboration and learning between conservation, development and human rights / Indigenous Peoples’ rights organisations.

For the first round of small grants, we are particularly keen to support activities that respond to COVID-19 and the challenges this disease is creating in great ape range states for conservation and development. 

You can learn more on the PCLG website: https://www.povertyandconservation.info/en/pages/pclg-small-grants

Applications are open until 1pm (GMT) on Monday 1 February 2021.

PCLG looks forward to receiving your application and please feel free to share this opportunity with your networks.
