Dear Fondation Ensemble friends,<\/p>\n
We hope you are safe and well during this difficult period \u2013 one that is hard for all of us to endure and even harder for some.<\/p>\n
This short message is to let you know that the Foundation is continuing its activities, via remote working, needless to say.<\/p>\n
In response to our 2020 Call for Proposals, launched in December 2019, we received nearly 100 \u2018all sector\u2019 project proposals. Of these, we pre-selected around 15 proposals in the sustainable fishing, sustainable agriculture and biodiversity sectors. We have now shortlisted 7 projects, which will be examined in depth in the coming weeks before being submitted to our Board of Experts.<\/p>\n
A total of 37 proposals for the \u2018Endangered Animal Species\u2019 small grant fund are also being studied by our specialists in this field. At the same time, we are continuing to monitor around 30 ongoing projects in our focus sectors and countries.<\/p>\n
Soon, the Foundation\u2019s Board of Directors will meet (by videoconference) to review the 2019 Annual Report, which will be published online shortly after.<\/p>\n
Stay safe, and if you are taking advantage of this forced confinement to catch up on your reading, let me warmly recommend that unparalleled guide to a sense of wonder (to be read and reread) \u2013 Walden or Life in the Woods by Henry David Thoreau.<\/p>\n
I wish you all well.<\/p>\n
