Future Routes Fund - Young people taking action for nature
NatureScot, is launching the next round of the Future Routes Fund. This fund is aimed at increasing the number of young people who engage with nature and empowering them to take positive action for biodiversity and climate.
The climate emergency and Scotland’s nature crisis are two of our biggest challenges. NatureScot is Scotland’s Nature Agency ensuring a nature-rich future, where we have a healthy environment, biodiversity is on the increase, and everyone is involved.
The Future Routes Fund was designed by young people for young people. Therefore, young people between 11 and 26 can apply directly and projects must connect young people with nature. The applications will be reviewed by a panel of young people who will select the projects that they think will be the most beneficial to young people and their communities.
The Future Routes Fund is open for applications from 25th April until 29th of May. Full details on the fund and how to apply can be found at Future Routes Fund.
