WHAT ARE ITC CONFERENCE GRANTS
ITC Conference Grants are aimed at supporting Young Researchers and Innovators with a primary affiliation in a2n institution located in an ITC to attend international conferences, event or activity on the topic of the Action that are not organised by the COST Action.
The participation to the conference should specifically contribute to the scientific objectives[CB1] of this COST Action, which are outlined in detail in the MoU of the Action.
WHAT’S ON OFFER
A maximum of 1,000€ for face-to-face events, including Conference Fees.
A Conference Grant is a fixed financial contribution which takes into consideration the budget request of the applicant and the outcome of the evaluation of the application by the delegated person(s).
Conference Grants do not necessarily cover all the expenses related to participating in a given conference.
A Conference Grant is a contribution to the overall travel, accommodation and meal expenses of the selected Grantee.
ITC Conference Grants remain the same: anywhere in the world.
Documentary evidence of the conference fee amount must be provided by the applicant and in kind, must be archived by the Grant Holder along with the relevant administrative documents.
