The EDGE Fellows programme aims to create a new global network of in-country conservationists trained in cutting-edge wildlife management techniques and well-equipped to design and implement a project for a local EDGE species. In addition to receiving a grant of £10,000 over two years, EDGE Fellows attend one regional training courses and one training course in London; and receive one-to-one support from a scientific advisor based at ZSL. Fellowships are aimed at early-career (less than 10 years’ experience) conservation biologists or wildlife managers.
