ABRS National Taxonomy Research Grant Program

The 2019–20 Research Grants round is NOW CLOSED.

The Research Grants stream provides support to Postdoctoral Fellows and established career researchers to undertake research relevant to the taxonomy and systematics of the Australian biota. Research and Postdoctoral Fellowship grants are available.

All Research grants have a co-funding requirement. That is, applicants must have obtained a commitment for the applicable amount of co-funding for their application to be considered. The ABRS will place no restrictions on the source of this contribution, but applicants will need to be aware of the rules of other granting agencies, which may limit how funds contributed by them may be used. Salary may be included as co-funding. However, in an instance where two projects are of equal scientific merit but one has salary co-funding and the other cash co-funding, the project with cash co-funding will be ranked higher. In-kind contributions will be recognised but will not replace the requirement for additional co-funding input.

All research grants awarded in the 2019–20 Research Grants round are of three years duration.

IMPORTANT

Please note that, while an overseas institution may partner with an Australian institution on a grant project, the Host Institution must be an Australian institution and the student/researcher must be based at the Host Institution.

Table 1 below outlines the research grants that are available.

Assessment criteria and process

All Research Grants applications are assessed according to the evidence provided in the application. The criteria used to select successful applications are:

Table 2: Assessment Criteria, Processes and Weighting
Application completed correctly Yes/No
(If required) Cash or salary co-funding included Yes/No
Host Institution able to provide the required support Yes/No
Value for money (e.g. justified expenses, substantial work output) Yes/No
Relevance of the project to the Priority Areas for Research Grants* 20%
Feasibility of the project or merit of the proposed product (including the breadth of the likely client user group) 40%
Ability to carry out the project, or capacity in the case of early career researchers to do the project, as demonstrated in the application 40%
* Please Note for vascular plant groups in 2019–20 — funding will be prioritised towards taxa listed in the Final Priority Plant Taxa List for projects relating to the Flora of Australia.

Program Rules

The program rules for the 2019–20 Research Grants round:

Funding agreements

All grant recipients who receive funding from the ABRS under the 2019–20 round, are subject to the terms and conditions set out in the ABRS Grant Funding Agreement.

The Department of the Environment and Energy has developed standard funding agreements for grants. Applicants who are successful in receiving funding under the ABRS NTRGP are subject to the conditions set out in the following funding agreement templates.

Note: These funding agreements are samples only and may vary slightly from year to year.

Reporting

ABRS grant recipients are required to report to the ABRS on the progress of their grant. Failure to submit any report by the due date may result in cancellation of the grant and ALL future funding.

Note: All reporting forms are to be submitted either electronically (with a PDF of the signature page) to abrs.grants@environment.gov.au OR as posted hard copies.

If you are uncertain of your grant type, the reporting requirements or which grant reporting template you should use, please contact the ABRS Business and Grants Manager.
