RRCF Invites Research Proposals on Raptors: 2017-18

Raptor Research & Conservation Foundation (RRCF) has a Grants programme every year to encourage and support studies of raptors in India. We invite project proposals for 2017-18 from wildlife researchers having good raptor identification skills; with objectives that can be achieved in the scheduled time-frame; clearly defined objectives, and also with high conservation impact.

The amount of grant available is up to Rs. 2,50,000/- with a duration of 1 year. Grants are provided mainly for field work and not for attending conferences / workshops, and equipment with high capital cost. If your budget includes substantial amount of equipment you will need to provide strong justification for the same.

Please visit our website: www.raptors.net.in for more details and where you can download our questionnaire.

RRCF will also consider larger grants for projects of longer duration.
