There is a long tradition in EATAW of offering conference fee waivers and/or financial support to presenters in contexts or countries where they might not get university support to attend conferences. These scholarships are paid out of the small profits made from the preceding conference(s) or from the planning budgets of the upcoming conferences. The EATAW board and EATAW2019 organisers therefore invite applications for scholarships or fee waivers.
Applications will be evaluated after 15 April, 2019 by a committee who will consider them on the merits of both the statement and the conference abstract. We hope to reach decisions within a week to ten days from receiving applications.
