Asian Elephant Conservation Fund | Apply Online

Opportunity Information: Apply for F15AS00442

The Asian Elephant Conservation Fund invites proposals aimed at safeguarding the Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) across its natural habitats. Established in response to rising threats facing this endangered species, the initiative supports various conservation programs in countries where Asian elephants are found.

Eligible projects can include applied research on elephant populations and habitats, efforts to minimize the removal of wild elephants, initiatives to curb demand for ivory and other elephant-derived products, and strategies to prevent illegal killings. Additionally, project proposals may focus on developing conservation management plans, complying with laws regarding elephants, and promoting community outreach related to elephant conservation.

Key areas of focus also include risk mitigation for vulnerable elephant populations, reducing human-elephant conflicts, habitat conservation, and enhancing local capacity for effective conservation program implementation. The fund encourages collaborative initiatives that broaden understanding among decision-makers and stakeholders, including lawmakers, educators, and NGOs, to foster greater engagement in wildlife conservation.

Proposals must be directly related to Asian elephant conservation within their range, or demonstrate strong relevance when conducted elsewhere. Research should target specific management needs and threats like poaching, disease, or climate change impacting the species and its environment.
