GEO Mountains organise an open and informative webinar on Monday, 6 May, 14:00 CEST to present the call and provide opportunity for Q&A.
We are launching a second small data grants call (2024–2025) for projects that explore mountain monitoring, data, and information, with priority given to projects focused on the following mountain regions: Andes, Central Asia, East Africa, the Caucasus, and Hindu Kush Himalaya.
As 2025 is the UN-declared International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation (IYGP2025), we encourage proposals that align with the themes of the IYGP2025 as potential contributions to that observance. We especially welcome proposals that explicitly address key observation gaps, including data and information on the human dimensions of deglaciation and the societal impacts and adaptation needs associated with the cryosphere in a changing climate.
Depending on the quality and merit of the proposed projects, we expect to support up to two projects per region, with a contribution of up to CHF 10,000 per project available on a competitive basis. Project duration can be up to one year, and all projects should conclude no later than 30 September 2025.
