Description

The SeaDoc Society - Open Request for Scientific Proposals (2025). Letters of Inquiry Due: March 10, 2025. The SeaDoc Society works to ensure the health of marine wildlife and their ecosystems through science and education. We do not take policy positions nor serve in an advocacy role. We are pleased to launch our annual competitive grants program with the goal of supporting science where more information is needed and expected to directly improve the health of the Salish Sea ecosystem and its marine and coastal flora and fauna. We anticipate funding at least $200,000 for Open Call projects. Funding for individual projects will be limited to $50,000. With the intent of receiving proposals from a wide variety of conservation topics for the Open Call, we are requesting Letters of Inquiry (LOIs) from investigators proposing science projects that address pressing wildlife and ecosystem health issues in the Salish Sea. Based on the information provided in the LOI, PIs from selected proposed projects will be invited to submit full proposals in a second phase. SeaDoc’s Goal: to fund research that will result in positive conservation outcomes. Analysis of past SeaDoc- funded work showed that successful projects (1) defined the conservation need apriori, (2) collaborated with personnel from government agencies, and (3) researchers built and maintained relationships with natural resource managers and policy makers before, during and after the research. Accordingly, in addition to funding credible science, SeaDoc wants all projects to incorporate these three components. Only PIs that propose projects where more science will benefit conservation and demonstrate plans for including these components will be requested to submit a full proposal. https://www.seadocsociety.org/proposals2025
