Whitley Awards fund grassroots conservation leaders in the Global South and put an international spotlight on winners’ work. Applications for the 2027 Whitley Awards are currently open and close at 23:59 GMT on Friday, 30 October 2026.
Whitley Awards are for dynamic, mid-career conservationists who are leading wildlife conservation projects in the Global South. Winners are nationals of the country in which they are working who are seeking to scale up proven work, that is embedded in the local community and would benefit from further funding, a profile boost and international support. They are worth £50,000 GBP in project funding over one year.
