Each year Future for Nature (FFN) awards three young, talented, and ambitious nature conservationists with the FFN Award. This award provides the winners with international recognition for their nature conservation work.
Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) awards provide editorial support, strategic advice, and constructive feedback from one of our top-flight volunteers.
These awards are offered to scientists facing unfair obstacles to career progression, including but not limited to people from historically underrepresented races or ethnic groups, people from low socioeconomic backgrounds, people with disabilities, women, primary caregivers, people who identify as LGBTQ+, and people in a low or lower middle-income country.
This award, named after TWAS Fellow Quarraisha Abdool Karim, carries a cash award of USD5,000 generously provided by Professor Abdool Karim. It is designed to honour women scientists in Low Income African countries for their achievements in Biological Sciences

The TWAS-Lenovo Science Award is one of the most prestigious honors given to scientists from the developing world. The rapid growth Lenovo has experienced in emerging markets has prompted the company to partner with TWAS to launch a high-level prize to give international recognition and visibility to individual scientists in the developing world for their outstanding scientific achievements.
The NIH Research Education Program supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The overarching goal of the program is to support the ethics of educational activities that foster a better understanding of biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research and its implications. To accomplish this, this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will support creative educational activities with a primary focus on:

Transport-related decisions can contribute significantly to achieving climate neutrality due to the adaptation of transport systems serving as a factor in transport efficiency. In this context, the application of digital technologies for use in automation, sensors, and communication technologies as they pertain to the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems, make it possible to respond to transportation needs with sustainable solutions.
This project will nurture emerging leaders in the application of research to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals and specific development outcome areas of particular interest to IDRC. It will enable Universities Canada to develop and implement a merit-based, peer-reviewed scholarship program for doctoral students at Canadian universities to conduct field research in developing countries.
