Eligibility Criteria

Alerts
The Awards are open to all, and each application is judged on its own merits, however there are a number of topics that the Awards Committee are particularly interested in, which are detailed below:

Research into the ecology of rare and threatened species and habitats;
Projects which aim to encourage increased awareness of ecology, conservation and environmental issues in local communities, and to educate people on how to develop and carry out sustainable management practices in those communities;
Research into how human activity affects species and habitats, and how any potential human-animal conflict can be managed;
Projects which aim to design and implement conservation education programmes;
Research into the welfare and breeding success of animals in captivity.
