Call for Proposals - Globally threatened trees

The Foundation Franklinia launched the call for proposals focused on in-situ conservation of globally threatened trees. Eligibility extends to any organization with well established expertise and efficiency in plant conservation from any country in the world. Funding from the Foundation favours conservation projects with reasonable budget in relation to proposed activities. 

The key project requirements include, among others:

• Only projects aiming at improving the conservation status of globally threatened tree species listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened species are eligible.
• Threatened species include those listed as Vulnerable (VU), Endangered (EN) or Critically Endangered (CR) (www.iucnredlist.org).
• Applicants must check the status of their target species at www.iucnredlist.org.
• Priority will be given to projects targeting CR and EN species.
• Projects targeting VU species will be accepted when immediate investments will be necessary to stop a rapid decline.
