Welcome to the ESRI Conservation Program
The ESRI Conservation Program is now part of the new "Special Programs" non-profit support group at esri (aka Environmental Systems Research Institute). Through our donations, We have helped to create and develop spatial analysis, computer mapping and geographic information systems (GIS) capability among thousands of non-profit organizations and individual projects of all sizes and types worldwide. We've also been part of the founding and international work of the Society for Conservation GIS (SCGIS)
For GIS software grants, please use the Conservation Program web form. For any questions regarding grants of maintenance, training, conference passes, data, support needs, legacy reasons, problems with the webform please see this guide, and feel free to contact us directly (ecp2 at esri dot com) (see also: esri Special Programs/Grants: Education .
