There are a signficant number of bursaries available for IIC 2024 to facilitate attendance at the meeting. Bursaries range from a £100 discount to a full scholarship consisting of registration fee, travel and accommodation – and all the range in between. Please note that accommodation and travel bursaries are generally only awarded to delegates from resource-limited countries.
Eligibility for IIC Bursaries:
- those in training posts
and / or - students enrolled in the Oxford University PG Diploma or PG Certificate in PID
Funding of bursaries
The majority of the bursaries are funded by ESPID and are reserved for ESPID members therefore we highly recommend that you join ESPID if you aren't a member already! There are also some bursaries funded by BPAIIG reserved for BPAIIG members, and some funded by IIC itself.
We especially welcome applications from trainees from 'resource limited countries' (as per ESPID's definition, you can find a list of those countries here).
