Workshop grants

The board of EWM The Netherlands awards grants to support the organization of mathematics workshops. Via this program, organizers of workshops can apply for funding to cover travel and accommodation expenses of the invited women speakers. The annual available budget of the grant program is 2.000 EUR. The applications are considered on a continuous basis upon the order received and are subject to the availability of funds. 

Requirements

  • Members at any stage of their career may apply. 
  • The workshop must take place in the Netherlands. In case the workshop is held outside the Netherlands, the funding can only be used to cover the travel and accommodation costs for women mathematicians affiliated with a Dutch university or a Dutch research institute. 
  • The workshop organizers should acknowledge the EWM-NL funding in their communication (placing the EWM-NL logo on the website, poster, program, etc). 
  • After the workshop has taken place, the organizers of the workshop should provide a testimonial, which may be used for the EWM-NL website and other publicity purposes.
