Small research project proposals on marine biodiversity and offshore renewable energy

The IEN’s MARÉIRE project is pleased to announce a grant opportunity for research projects on environmental topics, in the context of offshore renewable energy. This funding is part of a broader capacity-building initiative to support the development of research and expertise related to the interactions between the environment and offshore renewable energy within the environmental non-governmental organisation (eNGO) sector. We invite researchers to submit proposals for research projects that align with these themes, specifically focusing on marine biodiversity and/or offshore renewable energy technologies (e.g., offshore wind, tidal, wave energy) and their interactions with the environment.

Funding Details

• A total of €20,000 is available to support this initiative
• The maximum grant allocation per project is €10,000
• We encourage proposals from and collaborations with partner eNGOs from the Irish Environmental Network (IEN) membership
• Projects that are led by or involve a partner eNGO will be given priority consideration
