Yak-Kamel-Stiftung is a highly specialized science funder focused on advancing research on domesticated and wild yaks and Bactrian camels. It supports both applied and basic research, especially work on husbandry, health, crossbreeding, and scientific documentation, with a clear interest in international projects, particularly in Asia. The foundation also recognizes scholarly excellence through an annual research prize for published papers in the field.
Offers project grants up to €50,000 on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline, plus an annual €5,000 research award for published scholarly work; support is international and field-specific rather than broad-based.
Submit project proposals at any time for the research grant, and send award nominations/papers by April 1 each year to the foundation address. Applications should clearly demonstrate direct relevance to yak or Bactrian camel research, and strong fit on husbandry, health, crossbreeding, or documentation will likely be important.
