Secretariat of the Convention on Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS)

The Secretariat of the Convention on Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) has issued a call for proposals for the forthcoming funding opportunity within the Wildlife Without Borders programme of the United States Fish & Wildlife Service International Conservation Funds.  Proposals can be submitted to the Critically Endangered Animals Conservation Fund (CEACF).  The deadline for applying for this grant is 15 May 2014.  The full notification can be found at http://www.cms.int/en/node/5280.

 

The Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity strongly encourages Parties and partners to submit project proposals through this fund that not only contribute to the objectives of the CMS, but also contribute to the achievement of the Aichi Biodiversity Target 12, which states that “By 2020, the extinction of known threatened species has been prevented and their conservation status, particularly of those in most decline, has been improved and sustained”, and other related targets.
