ILGA’s conferences are traditionally open
to all, members and non-members of the federation.
Activists are encouraged to fund their
participation by their own means, or if they don’t have the funds, apply for a
scholarship. However, there will be only a limited number of full and partial
scholarships available.
In order to receive a scholarship, ILGA
asks you to provide the name of the leader or president of your
association/group, who authorizes you to represent in the conference and – if
you are member of ILGA – to vote on behalf of the gender(s) your group represents
at the conference. A scholarship application will not be considered without
this mention as groups decide themselves which person should represent them at
the conference, including which person should apply/benefit from a scholarship.
A full scholarship covers overseas travel,
accommodations, meals and conference fees. Partial scholarships may cover airplane
tickets only, accommodations only, conference fees only, or a combination. Local
transportation in the country of origin and visa expenses are not covered. Any
individual or group may apply.
Scholarships will be decided on the basis
of gender parity and regional balance among other criteria. Participants are
encouraged to find other sources of financial support or fund part of the cost
of attending the conference as well.
Scholarships will prioritize active ILGA
members. Scholarships will also prioritize those who will present papers or run
workshops at the conference. For previous scholarship awardees from 4th
ILGA-Asia Regional Conference in Surabaya, if you submit a qualified abstract
for presentation or workshop for this conference, you will be also prioritized
on scholarship selecting list.
For good measure, ILGA will ask you whether
you are a grantee/partner of any funder, as ILGA is also dependent on those
funders to be able to provide you with scholarship.
To apply for a scholarship to attend the
conference, download the scholarship form and submit on or before 1 February
2013 to conference2013.ilgaasia@gmail.com.
