Darwin Fellowships

Darwin Fellowships are targeted at promising members of recent or current Darwin Initiative projects who are from countries rich in biodiversity but poor in financial resources. Drawing on UK expertise in biodiversity, the programme aims to give Fellows the opportunity to broaden their professional knowledge and experience in biodiversity, typically through work experience in UK organisations. Fellowships are provided for up to one year in length.

27 fellowships have been awarded since its inception.
