Opportunity Information: Apply for F15AS00238
The International Affairs grant opportunity focuses on combating illegal wildlife trade, a major global issue valued in the billions. This illegal trade encompasses the unlawful harvesting and exchange of live animals and plants, as well as their products, which includes items like skins, leather goods, and traditional medicine. The trade can devastate endangered species, diminish natural resources, and negatively affect local communities that could benefit from legal wildlife tourism and trade.
In response to this crisis, President Obama initiated a National Strategy for Combating Wildlife Trafficking in 2013, emphasizing a coordinated government approach. This strategy targets three main objectives: strengthening enforcement, reducing demand for illegal wildlife, and enhancing international cooperation, particularly in relation to CITES, the main international framework for addressing wildlife trade.
The grant aims to support the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in implementing high-priority projects approved by CITES to improve wildlife trade enforcement and compliance. A significant aspect includes the implementation of National Ivory Action Plans (NIAPs) in 19 designated countries that play key roles in the ivory trade. Ongoing support is crucial for the success of these plans and the broader fight against wildlife trafficking. More details on the projects and the countries involved can be found on the CITES website.Apply for F15AS00238
