Opportunity Information: Apply for F16AS00095
The Wildlife Without Borders – Latin America and the Caribbean (South America) grant opportunity aims to conserve biodiversity in South America, a region rich in endemic species but threatened by habitat loss and environmental degradation. This program, authorized by the Endangered Species Act of 1973, emphasizes the need for collaborative conservation efforts involving local communities, organizations, and stakeholders to create sustainable solutions.
The overarching goal of the program is to conserve priority species, habitats, and ecological processes across high biodiversity landscapes. Key objectives include:
1. Addressing the threats to biodiversity through on-the-ground projects. 2. Strengthening local institutions and civil society to enhance conservation actions. 3. Fostering strategic partnerships at various levels to maximize conservation impact.
Eligible projects must take place in specified South American regions and should focus on clear conservation actions with tangible, long-lasting benefits. Proposals should directly address identified threats and demonstrate a strong connection between data collection and effective management actions. Government endorsement is required, and applicants are encouraged to consult relevant authorities before submission.
The program prioritizes funding for projects addressing:
- Unsustainable land use, aiming to improve land management practices while conserving high-value landscapes. - Illegal trafficking of wildlife, plants, and timber, focusing on reducing illegal trade and enhancing law enforcement capacities. - Human-wildlife conflict, with efforts to mitigate detrimental interactions between wildlife and human activities, particularly in agricultural areas.
Projects in Central America and Mexico are managed through separate programs, and specific exclusions apply to certain wildlife-related initiatives. Overall, the program seeks innovative and collaborative approaches to ensure the enduring conservation of South America's unique biodiversity.Apply for F16AS00095
