Inclusion Scholarships

We are committed to support participation from communities underrepresented in our activities due to financial reasons. The amount of support is dependent on the level of overall funding raised for each edition of the conference, and the financial contributions from partner institutions are instrumental in sustaining and expanding this fund. 

Eligibility

Scholarship awards are based on the level of financial need, and the appropriateness of the opportunity afforded to the applicant. To be eligible, applicants must have no other source of funding to meet the cost of registration, and be based in a low or middle income country.
