The Conservation Technology Support Program (CTSP) makes
approximately 50 grants annually to conservation groups in the US and to
some international groups. Grants include GIS software, hardware, training
and technical support. This session will help those seeking grants prepare
outstanding proposals, with presentations by key CTSP board
members. Feedback from grant seekers and prior grantees is encouraged. In
addition, the panel will describe other resources to help those doing
conservation GIS, and CTSP board members will be available for
consultations after the panel.
