Annual Grants 2017
Marisla was established in 1986 as a private, non-operating charitable institution. The Foundation makes grants in two program areas and one special interests category. The UW is eligible to submit one proposal every four quarters to the Marisla Foundation’s Environmental program.
The Environment Program concentrates on activities that promote the conservation of biological diversity and advance sustainable ecosystem management. Primary emphasis is on marine resources conservation with a geographic focus on the western North America, Chile, and the western Pacific. The Environment Program also supports the search for solutions to health threats caused by toxic chemicals.
