Transitions Conference - Scholarship

Preamble

The intention of this scholarship is to offer as many students and junior researchers as possible within Australia, Asia and the Pacific the opportunity to attend the Transitions Conference and network with experienced researchers in the broad field of health and mobility in the region. Individual scholarships are being offered in various amounts and combinations to maximise the funds which have been provided by the Asia Pacific Futures Research Network. We strongly encourage applicants to request essential support only as savings will go towards helping other students attend (e.g. consider own accommodation if possible). Every endeavour will be made to provide applicants with fair and equitable support.

Successful applicants will be provided with details of their individual scholarship offer by March 23 and will need to accept this offer before March 30. We will be happy to supply a letter of invitation if required by your department.
