The call for applications and nominations is now closed.
Dear ISE Members,
We are pleased to announce a Call for Nominations and Applications for the 2011 – 2013 ISE Darrell Posey Fellowship for Ethnoecology and Traditional Resource Rights awards. In addition to the Field Fellowship and Small Grants awards that you are all familiar with, we are pleased to announce two new components of the Institutional Fellowships designed to support the enthusiasm and help build expertise in the younger members of the ethnobiology community, and to encourage emerging leaders and build capacity in this field. The PhD Fellowship is a two-year fellowship ($6,000 per year for two years) and the Masters Fellowship is a one-year fellowship (one-time award of $3,000).
In December 2011 we will award one Field Fellowship, two small grants, one PhD Fellowship, and two Masters Fellowships. All six awards include additional funds to support the recipients’ participation at the 2012 ISE Congress.
As you may remember, we have continued to solicit nominations in addition to accepting direct applications because we have found that this makes the process more inclusive. Many remarkable individuals and groups are not experienced fundraisers, proposal writers and do not have large international networks. Please read more about the award process.
The timeline for this year’s nominations/applications, selection, and award process is as follows:
- Nominations/Applications due: 1 November 2011
- Selections made and recipients notified: December 2011
Below are the forms for submitting nominations and proposals. We are happy to answer any questions or send additional information, and we look forward to receiving your nominations and applications.
With warm regards,
Sarah Laird, Program Chair
Natasha Duarte, ISE Coordinator
