> Grants
The generous support of the Wenner-Gren Foundation, which helped delegates from Central and Eastern Europe attend the EAA meetings in the past, has been limited this year due to the world economic crisis. Still, participants coming from the below listed countries* may apply for a grant. The EAA will distribute the grant sum among as many candidates as possible, resulting however in smaller subvention for every grantee. The EAA therefore asks all candidates to look for local complementary grants or other possibilities of financing their participation.
To be considered for a grant, participants must conform to the following criteria:
