Whitley Fund for Nature
The Project
The Whitley Fund for Nature (WFN) is a fundraising and grant-giving nature conservation charity offering recognition, training and grants to support the work of proven grassroots conservation leaders across the Global South.
Funding is just part of what conservationists need to succeed. In addition to giving new Whitley Award winners £40,000 in project funding, WFN puts a spotlight on winners’ work, helping to increase their profile across the world.
The Result
Each year, WFN recognises five world-class conservationists with a £40,000 grant plus a Whitley Gold Award winner with £60,000.
Liquid coordinates all of the press materials and media liaison surrounding the awards ceremony in the UK and internationally. In 2021, winners were located in Kenya, Brazil, South Africa, India, Argentina and Nigeria.
