Fondation Pierre Vérots is a place-based environmental foundation focused on the conservation of the Dombes wetlands in France, with a strong emphasis on preserving fauna, flora, and habitat quality. It primarily supports scientific research and applied conservation work, often through partnerships with research institutions and universities, and it also promotes public awareness around wetland ecosystems. Its distinctive niche is highly localized ecological science, especially studies that can inform management of ponds, stagnant waters, and waterfowl habitats in the Dombes or similar wetland systems.
Ongoing, research-oriented support that can fully or partially fund doctoral contracts, Master 2 internships, and postdoctoral salaries; typically delivered through scientific partnerships rather than open, broad-based grantmaking.
Align proposals closely with the Dombes and comparable wetland ecosystems, and emphasize direct conservation relevance, scientific rigor, and feasibility for doctoral, internship, or postdoctoral support. Because funding appears research-partnership driven, applicants should expect to approach the foundation with a well-defined scientific project and institutional backing rather than a general-purpose nonprofit request.
