Description:

The Canadian Wildlife Federation has established the Endangered Species Fund to support research that will benefit the conservation of species at risk.

Projects must either focus on research which addresses a threat facing species at risk or involve population surveys and monitoring to support the assessment or recovery of species.

Application Details:

WF has decided to target Canada?s threatened aquatic species, which are often overlooked. The Fund will focus on improving our knowledge of marine and freshwater species, but will also consider projects addressing iconic species such as the polar bear or the caribou.

Applications must be submitted using the online application system found on CWF?s endangered species page: http://endangered.cwf-fcf.org. There is no formal application format for this fund, but clear, concise proposals are greatly appreciated.
