Sponsorship for attending IIC Congress

Sponsored Attendance at Congress

The Object in Context: Crossing Conservation Boundaries
IIC Congress 2006
Munich, 28 August 2006 - 1 September 2006

IIC is delighted to announce that, thanks to the generosity of the
Getty Foundation, sponsored attendance at the 2006 IIC Congress is
available, with the aim of extending the benefits of this event to
participants from developing countries and Central and Eastern
Europe who would otherwise find it difficult or impossible to
attend.

Application will be open to individuals from developing countries
and Central and Eastern Europe currently in Conservation-related
employment in either public or private capacity.

Applicants must demonstrate in their CV prior formal or significant
informal training in conservation or conservation science and must
have been in practice for at least one year since the completion of
training.

A brief statement should be provided in English describing how
attendance at the Congress would be of benefit to the individual and
to conservation in his/her country.

The application should be supported by one senior professional
conservator, who should be named, with affiliations, on the
application document.

Application is not open to those currently in training. Students
have been able to apply for support to the Brommelle Fund which is
one of the major funds of IIC exclusively dedicated to support
students. (Application to this Fund is now closed).

Applications will be accepted by Fax: (+44 7839 5975) or by email
(iic [at] iiconservation__org) and should be received by 27 July 2006.

Successful and unsuccessful applicants will be notified as soon as a
decision has been made.  Successful applicants will be informed of
the arrangements for payment.

The grant will cover in full the registration fee for the Congress
(which automatically includes membership of IIC for one year),
including attendance at formal social events and an excursion, and
will pay for economy flights, modest hotel accommodation and a per
diem sum.
