8. Referees
Please provide information for three referees. We rely heavily on their opinions of your project and work ethic. Of the three referees, at least two should be in Sri Lanka, and all referees should know you personally.
Referees should be able to provide us with a timely reference, however, if they are out on fieldwork, it is up to you to find a suitable replacement. Letters of reference should be on a letterhead document and signed by the referee.
At least one referee should be from a well-established institution (university, major conservation NGO or government body.
