African Raptor Leadership Grant 

The African Raptor Leadership Grant is a funding opportunity aimed at developing raptor champions throughout Africa.

Applicants must be African students intending to enrol as Msc or Honours students to conduct research on African raptors or their threats at one of three African universities:

  • University of Cape Town’s FitzPatrick Institute of African Ornithology, or
  • A.P. Leventis Ornithological Research Institute (APLORI), Nigeria, or
  • Mohammed V University Rabat

Two grants of $10,000 will be awarded per year to students, including support for their in-country mentors.

The application deadline is 30 June.

   A successful application for a grant will not, however, guarantee acceptance on to the MSc Conservation Biology course.
