New £40 Million Funding Programme for Biodiversity Research Projects (UK)

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs has announced a new £40 million funding programme to support research into natural solutions to climate change and poverty.

Around £7 million will be delivered through the first round of the Global Centre on Biodiversity for Climate’s Official Development Assistance programme to deliver policy-relevant research on how the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity can help address climate change and improve livelihoods in countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, sub-Saharan Africa, and South East Asia and the Pacific.

Applications for grants of up to £750,000 are accepted from a diverse range of UK and international partners, from non-governmental organisations to academic institutions.

No application deadline has been given.
