Future Woodlands Scotland: Research and Innovation Grants
Created: 09/06/2025
News/Events Category: Funding and Finance
This item will show under the following categories: Climate/Environment
These Research and Innovation grants support environmental organisations, academic institutions, individuals, and policymakers in advancing research and innovative ideas about Scotland’s native woodlands. Future Woodlands Scotland wants to improve understanding of how these woodlands are impacted by — and in turn impact — climate change, biodiversity, and the environment.
They understand that the challenges facing native woodlands can vary and change over time. They're particularly interested in proposals that explore:
- The role of native woodlands in tackling climate change.
- The environmental, conservation, and community benefits of native woodlands.
- Reducing plastic use and CO2 emissions during woodland establishment.
- Establishing native woodlands without relying on deer fencing.
- Innovative ways to manage non-tree elements in native woodlands, such as ground flora, fungi, and insects.
- Controlling and managing invasive non-native species in native woodlands.
- Fostering communication and collaboration among stakeholders interested in native woodland research.
Who can apply?
Any organisation or individual that can demonstrate they have the skills and capacity to carry out the proposed work can apply. Applications demonstrating a partnership approach to achieve common goals are particularly welcome.
How to apply
Application details can be found on their website.
The closing date for applications is 5.00pm on Wednesday 13 August 2025.
