Request for Proposals: 2020 Recovery of Species on the Brink of Extinction Program

Hong Kong Bird Watching Society Asia Conservation Fund

Deadline: 21-Oct-20

The National Geographic Society has launched a Request for Proposals for “Recovery of Species on the Brink of Extinction” program to support priorities of IUCN SSC Species Conservation Plans as well as conservation actions that are endorsed by the relevant IUCN SSC Species Specialist Group.

In partnership with the IUCN SSC and Fondation Segré, the goal of this request for funding is to halt further biodiversity decline by implementing conservation plans for species and groups of species.

The mandate of the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC) is to “stimulate, promote and support conservation actions for halting biodiversity decline, preventing species’ extinctions, and restoring and conserving intact habitats and ecosystems, both on the ground and in the water”.

Preference will be given to proposals that include feasible plans to demonstrate change in key, quantifiable indicators of: for example, reduction in drivers of population decline (e.g. unsustainable hunting, fishing or logging); or increase in numbers, degree of protection, or connectivity of populations of the target species or group of species.

Thematic Areas

Proposals that focus on the following themes are encouraged:
