Last month we received more than 890 applications for our scholarship programme. We can only support a fraction of those who applied.
Any individual or organisation able to financially sponsor the participation of a group of activists from around the world is encouraged to contact us at [email protected] or make a donation here, specifying it is for ILGA World Conference scholars.
A donation of EUR 380 will cover registration fees and allow one local scholar to attend. EUR 950 will cover both registration fees and accommodation. EUR 2,150 will cover full scholarship for one person coming from abroad.
