&lt;p&gt;CFA, the Commonwealth Forestry Association and partner of IFSA, offers a lot of awards. May be one of these could be of benefit to you aswell?!
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
In the rest of the year there's also the Young Scientist Award (http://www.cfa-international.org/YSA.html) which is very relevant to individual IFSA members who have completed significant researches and could be recompensed for their hard-work through the award.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
There's also the Young Scientist Research Award (http://www.cfa-international.org/Young_Scientist_Research_Award.html) which is designated for students from Commonwealth countries who have an ongoing research that could help advance the knowledge of Forestry.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Young Forester Award for example is a great opportunity to improve your ex-curricular education. Go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cfa-international.org/YFA.html&quot;&gt;this page&lt;/a&gt; to read the conditions (E.g.: this specific award is for CFA members).
