The North American Wetlands Conservation Act (NAWCA) U.S. Standard Grants Program offers a competitive, matching grant opportunity for public-private partnerships in the United States. This grant is specifically designed to support projects focused on the long-term protection, restoration, enhancement, or establishment of wetlands and associated uplands habitats. The primary purpose is to benefit all wetlands-associated migratory birds by furthering the goals of the NAWCA. Applicants must secure a 1:1 non-federal matching contribution for their proposed activities. It is important to note that funding for research-only projects is not eligible under this program. This initiative aims to foster collaborative conservation efforts across the nation.
