Deadline: 18 October 2015
The Auckland Zoo Conservation Fund small grants programme is seeking applications from projects or pilot programmes with clear conservation value.
The zoo along with supporting its own staff to develop or utilise their specialist skills and participate in field conservation initiatives, also provides financial resources for external organisations and individuals to carry out vital field conservation work.
Auckland Zoo has evolved over the years to become an active conservation organisation that is helping to build a future for wildlife.
