Inclusiveness Target Countries (ITC) Conference Grants

Overview

ITC Conference Grants are specifically designed to support researchers from Inclusiveness Target Countries, thereby promoting equitable participation in international research activities. These grants aim to reduce barriers to engagement and encourage researchers from underrepresented regions to contribute to European landscape architecture discourse.

Eligibility

Applicants must be based in ITCs and wish to attend or present at a conference relevant to ConnectLAA’s objectives. Early-career researchers and PhD candidates are particularly encouraged to apply, as these grants aim to foster professional development and academic mobility.

Rationale

By supporting researchers from ITCs, ConnectLAA ensures that diverse perspectives and regional expertise are represented in discussions about landscape architecture, archival studies, and cultural heritage. This inclusiveness enriches research outcomes and promotes scientific equity across the European research community.

Implementation

Grants typically cover travel, accommodation, and registration costs. Applicants submit a brief statement outlining the significance of their research, its alignment with the conference themes, and the expected impact of participation. These grants facilitate active involvement in international dialogue, helping to integrate ITC researchers into the wider European research landscape.
