WWF’s Russell E. Train Education for Nature Program (EFN) invites applications from aspiring and experienced researchers, practitioners, and leaders to pursue graduate-level studies (master’s and PhD) with a focus on research that increases understanding of key topics related to conservation and cultivates the knowledge, skills, and capacities of Indigenous peoples and local communities.
The Conservation Futures Fellowship is designed to support individuals who are committed to fostering genuine partnerships where local voices play a central role in conservation research and outcomes, promoting the co-creation of knowledge, engagement tools, and solutions with communities, and emphasizing the value of local and traditional knowledge in developing place-based conservation strategies.
