The Trustee for Invasive Species Solutions Trust

Giving Philosophy

This trust values evidence-based solutions with measurable impact, prioritising collaborative research that delivers practical innovations for invasive species management across Australian landscapes. It seeks initiatives that demonstrate strong return on investment, with documented outcomes of $5 return per $1 invested, and favours projects with national reach and community engagement components.

Tips for Applicants

Proposals should demonstrate clear scientific rigour, measurable environmental and economic outcomes, and alignment with the trust's focus on turning research into practical tools and community resources. Given the trust's modest annual giving of $25,000 and national scope, smaller targeted projects or capacity-building initiatives are more likely to align with giving capacity than large-scale research programs.
