STUDENTS AND YOUNG PROFESSIONALS BURSARY PROGRAM

A limited number of bursaries will be awarded to students and young professionals in the form of waived registration fees. The recipients are expected to cover all other costs associated with attending the conference. It is IAIA’s hope that these bursaries will help more young professionals from lower-income economies and students from around the world attend our premier annual event.

Potential candidates are those who have never before attended an IAIA annual conference and are either currently a student enrolled in an impact assessment or related undergraduate or graduate program OR are currently employed in the field of IA and living/working in a country listed under the World Bank’s GNI categories of low-income economies, lower-middle-income economies, and upper-middle-income economies. Young professionals must be 30 years or younger at the time of application to qualify; there is no age restriction for students.

Full application instructions are posted at conferences.iaia.org/2022/young-professionals-bursary.php. The application deadline is 5 January 2022.
