Grants from other financiers

The Swedish Taxonomy Initative’s economic resources are rather limited. It is also possible to apply for grants for biodiversity research, including taxonomy, from Vetenskapsrådet (The Swedish Research Council) and Formas (The Swedish Research Council for Environment, Agricultural Sciences and Spatial Planning).
