Dear BID colleagues, The JRS Biodiversity Foundation has just issued issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for multi-year projects focused upon biodiversity data, knowledge and information services related to freshwater biodiversity and pollinator biodiversity. They propose to award about $1,600,000 among qualifying proposals by July 2018. View the details here: http://jrsbiodiversity.org/how-to-apply/current-opportunities/2018rfp, and contact JRSRFP@jrsbiodiversity.org if you have questions. We hope that some of you succeed in extending the work you’ve done through BID under the auspices of this JRS programme. All best, Kyle ===== Kyle Copas +45 35 32 14 75 | mobile +45 28 75 14 75 | Skype kylecopas GBIF Secretariat Universitetsparken 15 2100 Copenhagen Ø Denmark http://www.gbif.org<http://www.gbif.org/>
