Are you a passionate young conservationist who is committed to preserving wild animal and plant species? Do you act on your enthusiasm for wildlife conservation to produce tangible results? Do you represent nature’s future? For the Future For Nature Awards 2023, apply right away.
The Future For Nature Award is a prestigious international award that celebrates tangible achievements in protecting wild animal and plant species. Each year Future For Nature awards 3 young, talented, and ambitious nature conservationists through the Future For Nature Awards.
The Future For Nature aims to:
- Reward and fund individuals for their outstanding efforts in the protection of species of wild animals and plants
- Stimulate Award winners to sustain their dedicated work
- Help winners to raise their profile, extend their professional network and strengthen their funding basis.
Awards
- The winners each receive 50,000 Euro and the prestigious FFN Award.
- Winning the FFN Award gives the winners international recognition for their work and opens doors that were previously closed.
- FFN offers the winners a platform and brings their stories to the attention of conservationists, financiers and a wide audience, allowing them to increase their impact and gain more access to funds.
Eligibility
- The candidate:
- Must be born on or after May 31, 1988 and before May 31, 2005.
- Has achieved substantial and long-term benefits to the conservation status of one or more animal or plant species.
- Has demonstrated commitment, determination, and passion for conservation work.
- Has demonstrated leadership, entrepreneurship, and a clear view of conservation work.
- Has been creative and innovative in his/her work.
- Has demonstrated to be honourable in the conservation work performed.
- Must be determined to continue his/her conservation work, as the Award aims to stimulate the winner’s future work. It is not an “end of career” prize.
- Is able to explain his/her conservation work in proficient English (written and spoken).
- The award should be used for a conservation initiative of the winner’s own choice and implemented by him/her.
- The award should be used for the conservation of animal or plant species. The conservation initiative can involve a component of (fundamental) research, but this should not be the main focus. The relevance of the proposed activities to species conservation and the practical impact should be made clear.
