WWF knows that investing in training and education is critical for biodiversity conservation. For 25 years, the WWF Russell E. Train Education for Nature Program (EFN) has been providing financial support to proven and potential conservation leaders in Africa, Asia, and Latin America to access the training and opportunities they needed to address the conservation challenges in their home countries.Each year, WWF supports committed conservationists from target countries to receive financial support for their graduate studies and field research. Our 2020 WWF Train Fellowship opportunities include:
To build marine capacity in the Galápagos, EFN is offering fellowships to female conservationists from Ecuador to enable them to pursue graduate-level study (master’s and PhD) with the goal of advancing marine conservation in the Galápagos Islands. More info...
