Overview
Fulbright students and scholars are natural leaders. The Fulbright Canada-RBC Eco-Leadership Program provides small grants to current and recent Fulbright Canada grantees to engage in environmental action in their community. This year’s campaign will build on a highly successful inaugural year of the Eco-Leadership Program.
Last year, 11 outstanding Fulbrighters reached out to their colleagues, campuses, and local communities and organized a series of fantastic projects that will have a lasting beneficial impact on their local environments.
The program will provide small grants (between $2000US and $4000US) to Fulbrighters who seek to engage in environmental action in their host or home community. The Fulbright Canada-RBC Eco-Leadership Program builds on the model of our Mobility Program, by soliciting proposals from current and recent grant recipients to undertake community-based environmental initiatives.
Similar to the mobility program, Fulbright Canada-RBC Eco-Leadership Program proposals consist of a project description, including how the project engages the community and the intended outcomes, and a budget, including any available matching funds. Proposals are evaluated by a small committee made up of the Executive Director, two program officers, and one Fulbright alumn with expertise in the field of environmental science.
Applicants must be current or past recipients of a Fulbright award through the Canada-U.S. Fulbright Program. Current grantees in the 2010-2011 cohort of Fulbright award recipients are encouraged to submit a proposal for an activity, event, or program in their host community. However, past recipients of Fulbright awards are eligible to receive an eco-leadership grant to be used in their local community, or another of their choice. This initiative is primarily a volunteer-based program, any applications that request funding to be used for salaries, stipends, or any other form of compensation will be ineligible for funding. Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to review the terms and conditions closely. Applications must be received, either electronically or via mail, no later than 5 pm EST on Monday, November 29, 2010
