This explorative conference will be hosted by the Institute for Science and Society and the University of Nottingham's Interdisciplinary Research Cluster EcoSocieties and we are making a number of bursaries available to facilitate the attendance of those postgraduate research students (PGRs) and early career researchers (ECRs) who might otherwise struggle to meet the costs of participation. Bursary support of up to £200 per participant for travel costs to the event or support with childcare are available for unfunded PGRs, unfunded ECRs, ECRs in receipt of precarious wages and others on the grounds of need. If you are interested in receiving a bursary include a brief description why you are in need of the funds when you register your interest.
