The aim of the new Scottish Learning Fund is to enable early-stage and / or small community-based groups in Scotland who are involved in marine conservation activities to learn, share knowledge, network and develop skills with other groups. No deadlines – apply any time.
There are many examples of marine conservation good practice in Scotland. Sea Changers want to enable organisations to learn and seek advice from one another, share good practice, network and jointly develop skills.
They recognise that in-person learning and networking can accelerate the development of community projects and the spread of such good practices. However, travel between Scotland’s coastal communities, particularly those of the Highlands and Islands, can be prohibitive for small voluntary and community groups – Sea Changers seek to address those challenges with this fund.
