The francophone countries of Africa possess some of the richest biodiversity on earth and at the same time face some of the biggest challenges in protecting their natural resources. The late Henri Nsanjama, Vice President for WWF's Africa and Madagascar Program, recognized the crucial need for a greater number of trained conservationists in francophone Africa and committed to finding funds to support exemplary students at the Ecole pour la Formation des Spécialistes de la Faune (EFG) in Garoua, Cameroon.
Through a generous gift from James R. and Barbara R. Palmer, each year EFN will award four to five students at EFG with Nsanjama-Palmer Rising Star Scholarships, so named to honor both Henri Nsanjama's lifelong commitment to capacity building in Africa and the Palmer's generosity that has enabled WWF to carry on Henri's vision.
Priority is given to candidates working in the field who are in the early stages of their careers and are able to make long-term contributions to conservation.
