Conference Grant Program

Helping Scientists & Students Overcome Financial Barriers

Conference Grant Program

Each year, the InterPore Foundation for Porous Media (InterPore Foundation) offers conference grants to researchers from academic institutions in low- or middle-income (LMI) economies, as defined by the World Bank, and to graduate students from any country. Grants provide up to €500 per person to help cover participation costs. Apply below for a chance to receive funding and join the global porous media community. Please note that a Letter of Support will be required for all student applicants. To be eligible to apply, applicants must be presenting at the upcoming InterPore Conference and hold a valid InterPore membership. Applicants from LMI counties may opt to deduct part of the grant funds to cover the InterPore membership fee. It is possible to apply for either a Conference Registration Fee waiver or for the Full Conference grant. We encourage applicants that only need the Conference Registration Fee waiver to choose that option to allow a larger portion of the available funding to be allocated to those who need more support.

Applications can be submitted anytime until the deadline of January 15th 2027 at 23:59.

 

Apply for Travel or Conference Grants

Students need also to provide a letter of support from supervisor or head of department.

The grants will be awarded based on applicants’ academic attainment, quality of their research abstracts.

Please select whether you are seeking support to cover solely the registration fee (Fee Waiver Only) or if you are also seeking support to cover the registration fee, accommodation, and travel costs (Full Conference Grant). 

Note: If you only need assistance with the registration fee, we encourage you to apply for the fee waiver to allow more funds to be allocated to participants with additional financial needs.
