2021 IAS Scholarship Programme to attend the 11th IAS Conference on HIV Science in Berlin, Germany.
The IAS Scholarship Programmes provides full registration to eligible and qualified applicants from resource-limited settings. The programme supports individuals who contribute to the conference programme, along with applicants who are able to demonstrate that they will transfer the skills and knowledge acquired at the conference to the work they undertake in their own organizations and communities.
Eligibility
The Scholarship Programme is open to anyone around the world working or volunteering in the field of HIV and who is at least 18 years old at the time of the conference. Priority will be given to:
Abstract presenters
Those whose participation will help enhance their work in their own communities
Those who are able to assist in the transfer of skills and knowledge acquired at the conference
Delegates from lower-income countries
Delegates who belong to key populations including people living with HIV.
Therefore, community representatives, healthcare workers, junior investigators and media representatives from resource-limited settings can apply for a registration waiver for IAS 2021.
Please note, only a limited number of scholarships is available and applicants are therefore strongly encouraged to also seek other sources of funding.
An IAS 2021 Scholarship Working Group, composed of international advisors is guiding this programme process and will help review and score scholarship applications.
Media scholarship applicants will be asked to provide media accreditation and supporting documents such as samples of their work and a letter from their editor.
