A fellowship to assist conservationists in saving endangered large cats has been announced by the Arabian Leopard Fund.

RIYADH: To give the upcoming generation of conservationists the abilities, information, and real-world experience they need to protect the critically endangered Arabian leopard's future, the Arabian Leopard Fund has announced the start of a 50-student scholarship program.

Through the top bachelor's programs worldwide, the Arabian Leopard Scholarship Program provides educational opportunities in conservation-related professions. As part of the AlUla scholarships program, 50 Saudi men and women will be admitted to pursue bachelor's degree specializations after being chosen from a highly competitive pool of 300 AlUla applicants.

It is a unique program that expands on the fund's long-term investment in developing the skills of upcoming conservation leaders and specialists in the area.

A training program at the Arabian Leopard Conservation Breeding Center, organized in close cooperation with the Royal Commission for AlUla, and a fully funded five-year partnership with the Durrell Conservation Academy in the UK are two examples of the fund's training project ecosystem. These programs offer important skill development for the care of Arabian leopards.

At the opening of the Arabian Leopard Fund's new headquarters in Riyadh, the scholarship was revealed.

The announcement comes after February 10th, the first International Day of the Arabian Leopard to be formally acknowledged by the UN.

Last June, the United Nations declared February 10th to be the International Day of the Arabian Leopard.

The announcement of the scholarship coincides with the formal launch of the Arabian Leopard Endowment, a set of microgrants designed to support conservation and research initiatives to restore Arabian leopard populations.

The funding, which has a total allocation of SR1 million ($266,000), will enable scientists, veterinarians, and international conservationists to carry out innovative conservation work by providing focused financial support to increase their efforts.

The award serves as a vital instrument for developing new plans and initiatives for monitoring, safeguarding, and growing the Arabian leopard population, guaranteeing the species' recovery and long-term viability by empowering a wide range of stakeholders to conduct vital research and fieldwork.

Significant progress has been made with the sectorial capacity-building initiatives and grants, which will support the conservation community's overall goal of preventing the extinction of the Arabian leopard.

The Arabian Leopard Fund, which was created by royal order in 2020 with an initial endowment of $25 million, was created to address the pressing issue of the significant fall of Arabian leopard populations, which the International Union for Conservation of Nature has classified as critically endangered.

The Vision 2030 plan's description of Saudi Arabia's commitment to Arabian leopard conservation highlights the country's commitment to biodiversity and ecological preservation.

The Arabian Leopard Fund is leading the charge to restore the region's natural balance through its conservation projects and activities.

"The Arabian leopard grant is a significant step in the global wildlife conservation narrative, showcasing Saudi Arabia's leadership in environmental stewardship and commitment to preserving the natural heritage of the Arabian leopard for generations to come," stated Waleed Aldayel, managing director of the Arabian Leopard Fund.

In addition to extending our work to new areas, communities, and destinations, the scholarship program's launch and the Arabian Leopard Grant's availability of new and significant funding sources encourage the growth and nurturing of fresh concepts that will support our long-term objective of protecting the Arabian leopard's future.

"We look forward to stepping up our efforts in the coming months to save this endangered sub-species, and we congratulate our first group of scholars who will help us shape the future of Arabian leopard conservation."

Conservationists, researchers, veterinarians, and other interested parties are encouraged to apply for this groundbreaking conservation project through the Arabian Leopard Fund grant program, which is currently taking applications.
