In cooperation with the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC), JAMC27 offers limited financial support to facilitate participation in the conference Drivers and Impacts of a Changing Arctic, taking place 8–12 March 2027 in Leipzig, Germany.
The programme aims to support Early Career Researchers (ECRs) and participants from Indigenous communities, particularly Arctic Indigenous Scholars and Knowledge Holders, who may otherwise face financial barriers to attending.
Who can apply?
Applications are welcome from:
Early Career Researchers (ECRs): Researchers within five years of obtaining their final academic degree (e.g. PhD). Career interruptions may be taken into consideration.
Participants from Indigenous communities: Applications, particularly from Arctic Indigenous Scholars and Knowledge Holders, are strongly encouraged. Priority will be given to applicants from Indigenous communities.
Types of support
Two independent types of financial support are available. Applicants may apply for either or both:
IASC Travel Support: Financial assistance towards travel costs, subject to the official IASC funding requirements.
Conference Registration Fee Discount: A reduction of the applicable conference registration fee.
Please note that funding is limited and the full amount requested cannot be guaranteed. The two types of support are assessed independently.
How to apply
Please complete the application form and submit it by email to info@jamc27.com no later than 31 December 2026.
Use the subject line: Application for JAMC27 Travel Support.
