Talk:Indianapolis Prize

Cleaned up
Noting that an Indianapolis Zoo employee did much of the work on this article and that most of the article was lifted from the main website, I re-wrote/re-worded/de-puffed most of the article. Hopefully it's more neutral now and doesn't break any policies. --132 18:49, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Indianapolis Prize Emerging Conservationist Award
WHAT IS THE EMERGING CONSERVATIONIST AWARD?

The Indianapolis Prize Committee has created a new award recognizing conservationists early in their careers. The Indianapolis Prize – the world’s leading award for animal conservation – is a biennial award recognizing an individual who has made extraordinary contributions to wildlife conservation. The Emerging Conservationist Award is an exciting new addition to the Indianapolis Prize Program.

The Emerging Conservationist Award – made possible through a grant from the Sidekick Foundation – is a biennial award recognizing conservationists under 40 years of age with the talent and drive to make a significant impact on saving an animal species or group of species. Established to help support their work, the Emerging Conservationist Award aims to encourage the courageous, talented and dedicated people who devote themselves to protecting Earth’s wild things and wild places.

Through a two-stage selection process, a Review Committee will narrow the application pool to 10 Finalists who will then be sent to the Selection Committee. Once the Selection Committee chooses a Winner from the top three applicants, the Winner will be notified and receive a $50,000 award to further their conservation work.

The inaugural Emerging Conservationist Award will be presented at the Indianapolis Prize Gala in September 2023. Applications open on Sept. 27, 2021 and close on Feb. 25, 2022.

Applications will be accepted in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Mandarin, Russian and Arabic and must be requested by no later than Jan. 4, 2022.To request an application, send an email to nomination@indianapolisprize.org.
