Call for LEAP small project grant now open
Livestock, Environment and People (LEAP): Call for small grant proposals
The Livestock, Environment and People (LEAP) programme, University of Oxford, aims to understand the health, environmental, social and economic effects of meat and dairy consumption to provide evidence and tools for decision makers to promote healthy and sustainable diets. LEAP is supported by the Wellcome Trust’s Our Planet Our Health Programme and is one of four major interdisciplinary research partnerships in the areas of global food systems and urbanization.
We are keen to encourage collaborative working across these themes and we are pleased to announce a competition for two project grants of up to £10,000 each. Projects will be judged on research quality and value for money, and the degree to which they add new dimensions to the LEAP research portfolio.

Applications will only be accepted from University of Oxford staff, but can include external collaborators. If you any questions please email Kelly Reed (kelly.reed@zoo.ox.ac.uk).
