TARII Speaker scholarship
In an effort to encourage and facilitate more Iraqi participation in international scholarly events and conferences, we welcome financial support requests from residents of Iraq to assist with expenses incurred while participating in these programs. If you have been selected to speak at an event outside of Iraq but are unable to attend due to the expenses, send us an email!
Your email should be sent to Info@tarii.org and must include at least:
A letter detailing your request including information on the event, how much is requested (up to 2,000 USD), and if you are seeking or have received funding support from anywhere else.
A copy of the research abstract selected for the program and proof of selection
A copy of your curriculum vitae (CV)
Eligible requests must come from residents of Iraq who will speak at a conference or event outside of Iraq. The scholarship funds may only be used on expenses incurred as a result of participation, such as (but not limited to) flights, accommodation, visa fees, meals, and/or other incidental expenses.
Requests are not required to be submitted in English.
Funding for this scholarship is provided entirely by donations to TARII. Awards will be given as donations allow. We will accept and consider requests submitted at any time - there is no deadline.
