Early Career Conference Grants 2024

Grants for early career researchers at member universities to attend and take part in conferences.

Early Career Conference Grants help to ensure that emerging researchers – and the universities that employ them – can benefit from the valuable opportunity of attending and taking part in in-person conferences in Commonwealth countries. 

For emerging academics, taking part in conferences can have a profound impact on their teaching and research. These events are a chance to share research, learn about the latest developments in an area of work, and build valuable professional networks.

Researchers find themselves better informed and better connected with new knowledge that can be shared and multiplied among colleagues and students. 

Benefits:

​Grants are a maximum of GBP 2,000 which can be used to cover: 

• Conference registration fee 
• Flights 
• Accommodation 
• Visa costs 
• Travel and health insurance
