About the Holohil Grant Program
The Holohil Grant Program invites conservation professionals and researchers worldwide to apply for funding and transmitter equipment that support high-impact, scientifically sound projects. Designed to empower fieldwork that relies on Holohil tracking technology, the program provides quarterly financial support and the valuable transmitter hardware needed to advance wildlife research, monitoring, and conservation outcomes.
What the Grant Covers
Selected projects receive direct financial support and applicable Holohil transmitters or related equipment. The combination of funding and hardware aims to reduce logistical barriers, accelerate data collection, and increase the reach and reliability of tracking studies. Applicants should outline how the grant will advance a clear conservation objective, whether it’s improving population estimates, studying movement patterns, or informing management strategies.
Funding Scope
Grants are intended for field- or data-analysis activities tied to Holohil technology. This may include equipment costs, travel for fieldwork, data processing, and dissemination of results to stakeholders. The program prioritizes projects with robust scientific design, rigorous data collection, and tangible conservation benefits that can be scaled or replicated in other contexts.
Who Should Apply
Eligible applicants include researchers, conservation practitioners, non-profit organizations, government or indigenous-led teams, and academic institutions that use Holohil transmitters in their work. Applicants from all regions are encouraged to apply, with emphasis on projects that address pressing biodiversity or habitat conservation challenges and demonstrate sound methodology.
Eligibility Criteria
- Proposed project must rely on Holohil tracking technology or associated equipment.
- Clear conservation outcomes with feasible milestones within the grant period.
- Strong scientific rationale and a defined data analysis plan.
- Budget requested should align with project scope and include a justification for transmitter use or replacement.
- Commitment to sharing results with the scientific community and local stakeholders where relevant.
Application Process and Deadlines
Applications are accepted on a quarterly cycle. Short proposals should include a project summary, objectives, study design, expected outcomes, timeline, and a detailed budget. Applicants must demonstrate how Holohil technology is central to achieving project goals. The review panel assesses scientific merit, conservation impact, feasibility, and alignment with program priorities. Successful applicants will be notified within a specified period after each deadline.
Selection Criteria
Evaluators consider the potential for meaningful conservation impact, the strength of the study design, data quality and accessibility, capacity-building implications, and the likelihood of knowledge transfer to practitioners and policymakers. Preference is given to projects with:
– Measurable biodiversity or habitat benefits
– Plans for open data or transparent reporting
– Clear pathways for technology transfer or replication
How to Strengthen Your Application
To improve your chances, provide a concise narrative that links each component of your proposal to concrete conservation outcomes. Include:
– A detailed methodology and data analysis plan
– A realistic budget with itemized transmitter needs and justification
– A risk assessment and mitigation strategies
– Letters of support or collaboration where applicable
What Applicants Should Expect
Recipients will receive quarterly funding and Holohil transmitter equipment as described in the approved proposal. Grantees may be invited to share progress updates, present findings at conferences, or contribute to case studies highlighting best practices in tracking technology for wildlife conservation.
