MAB is since 1989 providing 10 young researchers each year with awards up to US$5,000 in support of their research on ecosystems, natural resources and biodiversity. Through the MAB Young Scientists Awards, MAB is investing in a new generation of scientists worldwide because we think well-trained and committed young people are key to addressing ecological and sustainability issues.
In 2011, the MAB Council will grant ten regular Awards and two special Awards supported by the Austrian MAB Committee. The deadline for the 2011 MAB Young Scientists Award applications is 15 December 2010.
