Grants to environmental actors are for qualified not-for-profit organisations with a local presence in the PONT focus region and with a strategy in conservation, developing society, improving communities, and promoting citizen participation in conservation.
PONT funding priorities for environmental actors are mainly focused on (transboundary) conservation activities and some important specialised conservation activities. The environmental actors with a focus on conservation in the PONT focus region are supported with their operations and organisational development to make the organisations more robust and capable of sourcing third-party funding.
