The Society for Conservation Biology Marine Section is pleased to announce the 2017-2018 cycle of our Conservation Research Small Grants Program!  The program will provide funding ($500 – 700 USD) to marine conservation research projects in areas of acute need, especially for research in the developing world or for organizations with limited access to conservation funding.

Applicants must be members of the Society for Conservation Biology and the SCB Marine Section. If you are not a member yet, not to worry, joining is simple!
