Outreach 2024

The Trevor Platt Science Foundation announces small-duration outreach projects open to its members.

The call is for proposals on outreach activities in your country aimed at schools, colleges or the general public. The maximum duration of the activity is 6 months. The activity should help to create awareness in the target community on marine or freshwater ecosystems, resources, their conservation and their sustainable management.

  • The maximum fund available per project is 500 British Pounds (GBP), which can be used for the project-related travel, educational materials, flyers, and other related expenses. Institutional charges will not be covered.
  • Funding will be available for two or three projects to be completed in six months.

Interested members please apply using the template available here.

Submit to contact@trevorfoundation.org by 18 May, 2024.

Results will be announced on 15 June 2024.

  • The call is only open to members of the Foundation at this stage.
