Rufford Small Grants for Nature Conservation (RSGs) are aimed at small conservation programmes and pilot projects.
On this website you can track the progress of hundreds of supported projects around the world, and download application documents for new projects.
Innovation AwardsIn addition to the Rufford Small Grants, the Foundation now offers the prestigious Innovation Award. This Award is available to a new, substantial project which could have ground breaking effects in nature conservation in the developing world. For this we offer a 'one-off' grant of up to £50,000.
