OEH is now calling for proposals for projects under the Saving Our Species (SoS) Science and Research Plan. The SoS Science and Research Plan addresses critical program level knowledge needs and aligns with the SoS aim to improve the maximum number of species in the wild over the next 100 years. As such projects must benefit multi-species and/or ecological communities and maintain a collaborative approach between external partners and OEH. Proposals that focus on single species will not be considered.

Research priorities for the 2018/19 round of grants are:

• Adaptive capacity of threatened species and threatened ecological communities
• Monitoring, evaluation and reporting (MER)
• Fire
• Research grant pool

For the 2018/19 financial year there is an allocation of $400,000 for new projects.

Submissions are now open until Sunday 13th May 2018.
