Supplementary information:

This position best suits those that are passionate about nature and conservation, can work under challenging conditions in a team, can challenge themselves and are looking to gain new skills and experiences. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and encourage those from underrepresented groups to apply. Our project Mauritian Wildlife Foundation (MWF) endeavours to protect and safeguard the natural heritage of the Republic of Mauritius from extinction through scientific conservation work and community awareness. The MWF is the pioneer and largest non-governmental organisation (NGO) in Mauritius whose mission is the conservation and preservation of the nation's endangered plant and animal species.

Round Island project is managed within the Island Restoration Programme. The project partners are the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation, Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, the National Parks and Conservation Service and the Forestry Service. Round Island is one of the few places in the Indian Ocean to have remained free from non-native and invasive predatory mammals and reptiles. For this reason, Round Island became the last location in the Mascarenes to support endemic and native invertebrates, reptiles, seabirds, and plants that have declined or become extinct elsewhere. However, introduced herbivores almost denuded the island’s vegetation, threatening the existence of its unique biodiversity. Herbivores were removed by the 1980s, which led to the recovery of the palm-rich habitat. Since 2002, there has been a permanent presence of conservation staff who monitor the fauna and flora, and work to restore the island’s lost plant species. These actions have been important for rebuilding the unique ecosystem on Round Island.

Description

The Foundation’s grants programme supports civil society across the Commonwealth—including grassroots communities and creative actors—to advance meaningful social, cultural and political change.

We support projects that seek change through constructive engagement with governments and other decision-makers and/or through creative advocacy: the intentional use of creative practices to influence public discourse, policy, behaviours or decision-making.

This year, the Foundation is expanding its funding offer to create new opportunities for civil society networks, coalitions, alliances and collectives, building on several years of support for grassroots communities and creative organisations.

Applications must address one or more of our three funding priorities. All applicants are required to demonstrate how they intend to integrate considerations of gender and intersectionality into their project design and implementation.

Applicants must check our eligibility criteria thoroughly and read all of the guidance documentation on this page before applying. Please note that we receive a large number of applications each year and are therefore unable to provide individual feedback for applicants.

Two grants streams

We offer funding through two complementary grant streams:

• Individual Organisation Grants: For eligible not-for-profit civil society organisations, including creative organisations, delivering standalone projects.  Grants are available from £15,000 to £30,000 per year for up to two years.

• Collective Action Grants (New): For eligible networks, coalitions, alliances and platforms of civil society actors, including creative collectives, working together to strengthen participation and collective action. Grants are available from £15,000 to £20,000 per year for up to two years.

Please see the guidance documents for full information about both grant streams. Our frequently asked questions provide further information on the new Collective Action Grants and changes to this year’s call, as well as answers to common questions about Individual Organisation Grants and the application process.

Funding priorities

Applications must address one or more of our three priority themes: climate and environmental justice, economic inclusion and freedom of expression.  These areas often overlap, and we encourage applicants to explore the connections between them. These themes are set out below, alongside further considerations and exclusions.

Our strategy also identifies small states and gender and intersectionality as cross-cutting priorities. There should be demonstrable consideration of gender and intersectionality in project design and implementation. We strongly encourage applications from eligible organisations in Commonwealth small states. We welcome projects that meaningfully involve young people to strengthen their leadership.
