Earthwatch is an international, non-profit organization dedicated to sponsoring research and promoting public education in the sciences and humanities. All funds awarded by Earthwatch are derived from the contributions of Earthwatch members who pay for the opportunity to join scientists in the field and assist with data collection and other research tasks. On average, each volunteer contributes $600 - $900 towards the field grant and spends 12 to 16 days in the field. Grants range from $8,000 - $100,000 depending on the project length and number of volunteers involved. Preliminary proposals for Earthwatch field grants should be submitted at least 13 months in advance of anticipated field dates. Full proposals are invited upon review of preliminary proposals. Information about Earthwatch field grants is available on The Center's World Wide Web site (http://www.earthwatch.org/cfr/cfr.html) or you can contact: Andy Hudson, Director, The Center for Field Research, 680 Mt.
