Description:
At Audubon Southwest, we seek science-based solutions to the biggest threats facing the region's birds, other wildlife, habitats, and communities. We need sound science to tell us what birds need, and we believe that securing conservation wins tomorrow depends on fostering a young, diverse cohort of aspiring scientists today.

That is why we are again announcing our annual Appleton-Whittell Research Ranch (AWRR) Research Fellowships! Through this program, we offer support to young scientists embarking on research with the potential to further Frank and Ariel Appleton's founding mission of the Research Ranch - to leave the land better than we found it. Supported research includes but is not limited to studies focused on grassland conservation, Arizona Species of Greatest Conservation Need, ecosystem restoration and rehabilitation, natural history at any scale, the impacts of climate change and aridification, and community engagement in science and conservation.
