Scholarships

---

The conference organizers are committed to making AIDS 2014 accessible to people from resource-limited settings and communities, researchers, young people, community activists and civil society representatives.

Scholarships provide financial assistance to a number of people to help them attend the conference.

International Scholarship Programme

The International Scholarship Programme is open to everyone around the world working or volunteering in the field of HIV and AIDS.

Priority will be given to those whose participation will help enhance their work in their own communities, to those who are able to assist in the transfer of skills and knowledge acquired at the conference, and to those whose abstract, workshop or programme activity submission has been selected. Scholarship selection will be based on a non-biased scoring system established in advanced. A Scholarship Review Committee will contribute to the reviewing and scoring of the applications.

Although every attempt will be made to assist as many people as possible, we regret that there are only a limited number of international scholarships available. On average, less than 10% of applicants are awarded a scholarship. Applicants are therefore strongly encouraged to seek other funding as well.

Media Scholarship Programme

A very limited number of scholarships will also be available for media representatives from around the world. Media scholarship applicants will be asked to provide media accreditation and supporting documents.

Types of Support

Scholarship applicants will be able to request a full or partial scholarship.
A full scholarship includes:

• Registration fee for the conference (include access to all sessions and exhibitions);
• Travel (pre-paid airfare at the lowest fare available, from the nearest international airport);
• Accommodation (shared in a budget hotel or dorm for the days of the conference);
• Modest daily living allowance for the duration of the conference (20-25 July 2014).

A partial scholarship includes any combination of the above.

Applications will be open online through the conference profile, from 5 December 2013 to 6 February 2014. More information will be provided here in the upcoming months.
