Call for proposals

Sub-Saharan Africa, 2015

Note: This call is now closed | view selected projects

The deadline for submitting initial concept notes from sub-Saharan Africa was 20 November 2015. GBIF and its evaluation panel invited a selected number of applicants to submit full proposals in February 2016 and expect to announce project selections in April 2016.

This call supports projects from sub-Saharan Africa that:

Mobilize biodiversity data relating to protected areas, threatened species, and invasive alien species
Use and extend best practices for digitizing natural history collections and mobilizing other biodiversity data
Apply biodiversity data in support of decision-making and research
Develop lasting national, regional or thematic networks to support ongoing data sharing and reuse

The call offers support for three grant types

A second and final call for proposals to support countries in sub-Saharan Africa is planned for 2017.
