IAGA provides sponsorship for people interested in organising meetings under its remit, especially for students, early career researchers or scientists in developing countries. The funding can be used for various purposes such as registration fee waiver or enabling participation of participants who otherwise wouldn't be able to travel by supporting their travel/accommodation costs. There are two rounds of applications open- end of May and November- each year with outcomes aimed for June and December, respectively.
The ideal time for submitting funding request is a year before the event, with details of the meeting such as venue, dates and scientific focus. The submission is made to the Secretary General and is evaluated by the Executive Committee. The funding capacity may differ for different years but in general, the maximum amount is about 3000 EUR.
