The Rufford Small Grants Celebrates 10 Years of Supporting Nature Conservation

Since 1999 when the very first Rufford Small Grant was awarded, over 1,000 projects have now been awarded around the world. With a focus on supporting grass-roots projects run by individuals in developing countries, the scheme has provided funding to a wide range of projects. From the Small Grants have developed complementary schemes and the Foundation now offers Booster Grants and the new Continuation and Completion Grants. This enhanced grant-programme is designed to enable Small Grants Projects to develop as successful and effective projects, enabling conservationists to make a lasting impact in the natural world.
