Summary

The aim of the new Scottish Learning Fund is to enable early-stage and/or small community-based groups in Scotland who are involved in marine conservation activities to learn, share knowledge, network and develop skills with other groups.

Costs that may be covered by the fund include, but are not limited to:

• Travel - limiting carbon footprint when possible - avoiding air travel and using public transport (standard class).
• Accommodation.
• Subsistence costs (capped at maximum £25 per day).
• Seminar costs.
• Online learning and sharing: e.g. Developing a video case study to share with other groups or costs associated with hosting an online learning event or webinar.

Successful grantees will be expected to share proof of expenditure and complete a brief feedback form on the learning outcomes and proposed next steps as a result of the learning.
