Funding support

We are seeking financial support to allow us to subsidise fees and travel costs for applicants from developing countries.

A list of qualifying countries is available: List of developing countries

We hope that funding will cover a significant portion of travel costs for selected participants plus the registration fee, which includes accommodation, tuition, basic catering, and all summer school activities, but the level of support that we can offer will depend on sponsorship.

Eligibility:

Applicants should be

  • From a qualifying country (see list above). If you are from a developing country that does not appear on the list, you can indicate that during your application.
  • Be under 35 years of age by the 29th of June 2026
  • Be a postgraduate (PhD or MSc) student or within 10 years of completing a university degree

How to apply:

Applicants should complete the relevant sections of the application form.

Selection process:

All applications that are eligible for funding will be reviewed carefully. Applicants will be notified about funding decisions as soon as possible. We hope to have this information in early February, 2026 and to include it with the acceptance notification.
