Extended deadline for IWSG Small Project Grant applications
1 December 2021
The IWSG Small Project Grants Committee have decided to extend the deadline for application to 15th December 2021. With this grant we aim to support shorebird studies that otherwise will not go ahead. This could be all sorts of projects related to waders (shorebirds): ecological and/or conservation research, pilot studies looking at biological aspects of a single or a few species, or counts of staging birds at unexplored sites. Or something completely different! Application is open for IWSG

What we do

  • The International Wader Study Group (IWSG) brings together everyone who has a passion for waders (shorebirds), the habitats they use and their conservation.
  • Members include research scientists, citizen scientists and conservation practitioners from all around the world. Membership is open to all.
  • Details on our aims and objectives can be found here.
