There are two pieces of news - the first one bad, and the second one very good!

1. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer any kind of financial support for students who come and present a paper at our conference in February.

2. There are other grants that you may try to apply for in order to reimburse your expenses connected with travelling, accommodation and food during our event.

So if you would like to get a grant in order to present a paper at our conference, these possibilities may be of some interest to you:

CEACS CONFERENCE GRANTS

*The Central European Association for Canadian Studies (CEACS) offers financial support for its members who are planning to present a paper in the field of Canadian studies at a conference. All student members of CEACS can apply for these conference grants (up to the value of 200 EUR)  if they decide to present a paper on a Canadian topic in Bratislava.

*In order to get such a grant, please have a look at their conditions.

*If you are not a member of the CEACS, do not worry! You can become one next year (the application deadline is March 31, 2016) and claim your conference grant in the next round. Just have a look at the membership. And do not forget that the CEACS membership is open to all teachers, students and other individuals with an interest in Canadian Studies.

*If you have any further questions about CEACS, their conference grants or are just unsure about what to do with this information, please do not hesitate to contact Martina Bednáriková (mattie.bednarik@gmail.com) who is more than ready to answer all your questions!
