The foundation welcomes applications from researchers in the scientific and engineering fields who are working in or native to developing countries.

Travel bursaries for research and conference or symposium attendance.

We welcome applications from researchers who would like to attend local or international conferences, symposia and workshops or undertake other postgraduate study. In most cases, we will meet all or part of travel, accommodation and registration costs. We also consider offering financial assistance to qualified researchers wishing to further their expertise at an internationally recognised overseas institution.

Conference Support

We support international meetings organised and hosted in developing countries, especially by facilitating the attendance of contributors.

Small project and Equipment grants

We welcome grant applications from researchers for small projects. Normally, we our grants contribute to part of the full cost of a project.  We may provide a number of small grants to cover equipment costs and access to academic publications.
