British Ecological Society (BES) Building Capacity for Ecology Fund
The Building Capacity for Ecology Fund will assist in the establishment or development of networks of ecologists that will allow ecologists in countries that currently lack a well-developed society or ecology institute to interact and gain from the experience and activities of colleagues. It is expected that the interactions promoted by the Fund to lead to the creation of new national or regional societies that will affiliate to International Association of Ecology (Intecol).  Support will focus on building effective ecological networks in Eastern Europe and Africa. The Fund will support:
- meetings to allow ecologists to interact and begin to build or strengthen the network of ecologists 
- office equipment, web activities, newsletters, and other administrative support that will support an effective network of ecologists
- other proposals that clearly promote the objective of the Fund
There is no upper limit on the size of grants that will be awarded. However, applicants should note that the total budget for the fund is £100,000 each year for five years. Most awards are envisaged to be between £5,000 and £20,000 per annum. Deadline for 2nd round: 15 October 2007.
