Purpose

Wildlife Acoustics is proud to offer a quarterly grant program that supports the advancement of wildlife research, habitat monitoring, and environmental conservation.

Overview

Scientists may apply for a product grant to advance the study of bats, birds, amphibians, and other terrestrial wildlife-or a travel grant to help them attend a conference with their peers.

Current grant types include:

  • Standard Product Grant: Recorders & Software
    • Each quarter, the funder will award up to $12,000 USD in eligible products to selected grant recipients worldwide. Individual applicants may request recorders, accessories, and software licenses totaling up to $4,000 USD. The funder will proudly highlight grant recipients and their projects on our website and social media platforms.
  • Software-Only Grant
    • Do you only need analysis software? The funder has streamlined the application process for our quarterly software grant. Selected recipients will receive one or more annual Kaleidoscope Pro licenses.
  • Travel Grant
    • This grant is for early-career professionals using Wildlife Acoustics recorders and/or software who want to present a talk or poster at an upcoming conference. They will award one individual up to $1,000 USD each quarter to cover conference expenses, including registration, transportation, and lodging fees.
