Elements of Successful Humanitarian Projects and Vocational Training Teams

Environment global grants are:
1. Sustainable — Communities can continue to make progress in environmental protection and
sustainability after the Rotary clubs or districts complete their work.

2. Measurable — Sponsors need to set targets and identify measurements to track project outcomes.
3. Community-driven — Projects meet the needs identified by the host community.

Elements of Successful Scholarships

Environment global grants support graduate-level scholarships through two programs for professionals
who want to pursue careers related to the environment. The first is a core environmental fields
scholarship program. The second is a scholarship program for self-identified Indigenous applicants to
pursue a course of study from a broader curricular range related to the intersection of environmental and
Indigenous studies.

For the core environmental fields program, TRF considers these factors:
1. The applicant’s previous work experience in environmental fields

2. The academic program’s alignment with the environment, through an eligible field of study, such
as natural resources management, environmental toxicology, conservation biology, or
environmental justice (full list in Environment Guidelines for Global Grant Funding)

3. The applicant’s career plans as they relate to the environment

For the Indigenous environmental studies program, TRF considers these factors:

1. The applicant’s previous professional or academic experience in environment-related fields

2. The academic program’s alignment with any of the disciplines listed above in the first program, or
from the additional options listed in the Environment Guidelines for Global Grant Funding
3. The applicant’s career plans as they relate to the environment or to addressing environmental
issues that Indigenous peoples face
