Biosphere Research Grants

The Clayoquot Biosphere Trust has multiple granting streams designed to fund a broad range of projects within the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Region. The CBT is pleased to invite proposals for a $20,000 award to support research that advances the local understanding of conservation challenges in our marine and/or terrestrial ecosystems and helps us to prioritize conservation actions within the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Region.

• Research that addresses a trend of degradation on target species or ecosystems of ecological and/or cultural importance; research that applies to conservation action and can be applied in other areas as well (broad application). Conservation action refers to management responses that can mitigate the threat; research findings need to be communicated in a public forum of some kind; research proposals that support the spirit and intent of the UNESCO Biosphere designation; research that follows local protocols including local First Nations review and compliance with BC Parks research permits.
