The aim of the grant program is to help mitigate one of the factors—lack of
funds—which may prevent these conferees from attending the OSM 2019. The

   apéro reception, and conference dinner are included with registration);
   - Waived conference registration fee.

*Application Requirements: *

   - Application form;
   - Support letter from your Institution/ Department Chair / PhD Advisor

   - The grants will be awarded to developing country scholars who the OSM
   Scientific Committee deems to have outstanding potential to contribute to
   the advancement of land system science and the Global Land Programme.
   Selection will be made based on the following criteria:
   - Does the applicant meet the eligibility criteria?
   - Does the applicant plan to present research that is of outstanding
   quality and should be seen by the wider GLP community?

   advancement of land system science and the Global Land Programme?
