Scoping Awards

The Darwin Initiative is offering one-off funding for travel costs to a host country to enable UK institutions to develop a Darwin project application in collaboration with host country partners.

The purpose is to ensure that more UK organisations with biodiversity expertise have the chance to apply for Darwin project funding, by enabling less well-resourced organisations to develop project applications.

Timetable

Please ensure that you read the guidance notes carefully and complete the appropriate form accordingly. See below for downloads.
