About this opportunity
The Tribal Wildlife Grants Program is seeking proposals from federally recognized tribal governments for wildlife conservation projects on tribal lands. Administered by the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, the program aims to support activities like planning, management, research, restoration, and education benefiting wildlife, habitats, and culturally important species. Proposals will be evaluated based on resource benefits, performance measures, work plan quality, budget justification, capacity building, and outreach/partnerships. Applications are due by June 21, 2024.
Individual awards between $10,000 to $200,000 are expected, for a total program amount of $6.2 million. Funded projects will perform work on tribal lands to increase wildlife populations, support endangered species recovery, and prevent new species listings under the Endangered Species Act.
Synopsis
The Tribal Wildlife Grants (TWG) Program was created to support the development and implementation of programs for the benefit of wildlife and their habitats and species of Tribal cultural or traditional importance, including those that are not hunted or fished. The TWG Program is part of the Congressionally-authorized State and Tribal Wildlife Grant (STWG) Program which provides wildlife conservation grants to States, Commonwealths, and to the District of Columbia, U.S. Territories, and Tribes under provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956 and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act. The TWG Program provides opportunities for federally recognized Tribes to engage in fish and wildlife conservation efforts on Tribal lands. Many of the TWG Program-funded project activities increase fish and wildlife populations, allowing for hunting and fishing opportunities on and off Tribal lands. Additionally, the TWG Program funds project activities that align and assist the Service with Endangered Species Act (ESA) conservation activities supporting species down-listing (threatened to endangered), delisting (removal from the list due to species recovery), and preventing new species listings under the ESA.
