One option is applying for paid positions. I know that in some countries, people are paid to work as a PhD student ( since the PhD student not only studies, but also teaches and does research, by law it is considered a job ). This is the case in The Netherlands and Sweden. I think also Germany, and would not be surprised about other countries. One has to apply for the job, not for a grant. 
Otherwise, it is hard work to find something. You 'liked' my overview article (thank you for that), so you know about it. Keep in mind that student-ship grants are grants, not salaries. So, one probably has to pay insurances privately.

With this one, perhaps wildlabs.net is a better forum to ask.

My two cents: you'd need to be more specific about the amount of data in MBs or TBs that you expect to get. "6hr video" is not saying that much because a lot depends on filetype and quality for example.

If the total is ranging in TBs then consider from where all this data is going to be uploaded to a cloud. If the connection is lousy, you may have to wait for days. You'll need to know exactly how fast your network is and how much data you want to upload to be able to calculate approx. how much time it is going to take. Perhaps you are better of with harddisks ( including back-up disks ) instead of cloud space.

I am terribly sorry, Nguyen, but I can not spare the time. I do one day pro-bono work per week and it is already overbooked.

Moreover, I am not a field specialist in any nature conservation, so I would not be of much help. The only thing I would do is what you can do yourself : check if your application addresses all the criteria of the funder ( they do not list them for nothing ), including the ones that are not about the content.

Another tip : WildTeam and others provide grant writing courses for which one needs to pay. However, I noticed that WildTeam's coursebook can be downloaded for free. https://www.wildteam.org.uk/online-training-grant-writing It seems helpful to me.

You're welcome @Grace Alawa  and @Nguyen Van Kien ! Please do let me know any feedback when you're applying!

Hi @Jess Quinlan ,

Just now, I sent you a message through the forum's message system. The vet invited you to contact him.

kind regards

Frank

PS sorry for the long wait, I had phone issues, and then decided to wait until I would meet him, which was yesterday.

Well, I have been interested in SMART and EarthRanger for while. The interview revived this. So, I am now interested in talking to people about their experiences ( lessons learned ) with other research data collection and integration of that data in these platforms.

Hi Jess,

at the Jaguar Rescue Center ( near Puerto Viejo, Limon, Costa Rica ) they work with volunteers at the center's clinic. The JRC advertises for volunteers on their website, but not for these clinic positions. I don't know if they need volunteers right now but would be happy to ask the head vet ( is that the phrase? ) if you are interested.

cheers

Frank

Hej Amani,

cheers
