support of workshops and educational meetings

Guidelines

-To obtain support, organizers must be able to demonstrate that the themes and objectives of their workshop or eduational meeting (e.g., summer school) relate to PAGES Science Plan. In addition, PAGES requires a workshop report for the PAGES newsletter

-Organizers may contact the PAGES IPO in advance if they are unsure whether their proposal is eligible for PAGES meeting support

-PAGES does not support applications by individuals for travel and meeting attendance. Additionally, PAGES tends not to support sessions at large conferences unless the session is used to initiate or aid in the development of a PAGES product, such as a special journal issue.

-The next deadline for proposals is Wednesday, 15 June 2011. Proposals will be evaluated at the December 2010 EXCOM meeting. Call for proposals are announced twice a year.

-Please note: It is the responsibility of organizers to generate most of the funding necessary for the meeting.
