Early Career Conference Grants help to ensure that emerging researchers – and the universities that employ them – can benefit from the valuable opportunity of attending and taking part in in-person conferences in Commonwealth countries outside of their country of work. 

For emerging academics, taking part in conferences can have a profound impact on their teaching and research. These events are a chance to share research, learn about the latest developments in an area of work, and build valuable professional networks.

Eligibility Criteria

Applicants must: 

  • Be an early career researcher/academic at an  ACU member university. 
  • Be within 7 years of the start of their academic (research/teaching) career, with the exception of those who have had career breaks. A career break is a period of time out from employment for personal or professional reasons, including to care for children. 
  • Identify a conference that they would like to attend in a  Commonwealth country, taking place between August 2025 and 31 July 2026. 
    • Applicants need to be either chairing a session, presenting a paper, or presenting a poster as part of their conference attendance to be considered for a grant.
  • Review the  application guidance and  FAQs.
  • Submit an application through the online application form. 
    • If you already have a MyACU account, you can access the grant application form through this platform when applications open.
