Applicants must be nationals of Southern Sudan AWF is now accepting applications for the 2008-2009 Charlotte Conservation Fellows. Under the Charlotte Conservation Fellowship Program, AWF is offering scholarships for full MSc or partial Ph.D. programs with field research components that produce knowledge or insight into specific conservation challenges in the African Heartlands or conservation in general. This year, the program is designed to specifically benefit emerging and aspiring conservation scientists from Southern Sudan, where vast wildlife populations were recently discovered despite years of civil war. To help the region build the capacity it needs to protect these species and their habitat, AWF is inviting only citizens of Southern Sudan to apply for the 2008-09 Charlotte Conservation Fellowship Program. Expenses that AWF expects to cover under the scholarship will vary depending on the individual program selected by the scholarship recipient, but each scholarship is valued at a maximum cost of US$25,000. Those whose total costs for their studies exceed this figure must demonstrate that they have secured additional funding from other sources to enable them to complete their studies.
