Mobilty Fund
The mobility fund is designed to contribute towards travel and accommodation costs, although it
cannot be guaranteed to cover these costs fully. Funding is restricted to one applicant per institution
per event in any one year and only students who are self-funded (i.e. who receive no financial support
from their institution to attend the event in question) are eligible to apply for funding.
Please note that all ECPR supported summer schools count as one event, the Joint Sessions count
as one event and the Graduate or General Conference counts as one event. The eligibility criteria
differ slightly between events and are listed under the sub heading of each event.
PLEASE APPLY FOR THE MOBILITY FUND IN ADVANCE
EVEN BEFORE YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED TO PARTICIPATE IN AN EVENT.
