International Astronomical Union (IAU)

The IAU wishes to support qualified scientists to whom only limited means of support are available (e.g., colleagues from economically less privileged countries and young scientists). These funds are intended to assist in your participation, not cover all expenses.
​
​A limited number of grants are available for those attending the symposium in person only, for up to €2.000 (Euros). For those awarded a travel grant, you will receive the funds when you register in person at the meeting and sign the receipt.
​
Please note that a committee within the IAU reviews and approves applicants, not conference organisers, SOC or LOC. Funds are awarded in Euros (€) and provided to the conference organisers to transfer to successful applicants. Therefore, shifting exchange rates may alter the specific amount received in Australian Dollars ($AUD) when those funds are transferred.

Please complete and sign the following form and have it ready for uploading when you complete the registration form to the right. Please provide the amount requested in Euros (€).​​
