DetailS

Oral History NSW is pleased to announce that we will be offering one grant of $1200 to support a presenter attending the International Oral History Association Conference to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 25-28 July 2023.

Any financial member of OHNSW may apply for funding. In addition, OHNSW will prioritise grants for members who do not have access to institutional funding to attend the conference.

In addition, student members must:

Note:
The successful applicant must attend and present at the IOHA conference in person to receive the funding. Previous recipients of an OHNSW International conference grant are not eligible to apply.
The grant is not valid if the conference is moved to an online format.
All applications will be assessed based on merit. Oral History NSW reserves the right to not award a grant if applications received do not satisfy all criteria or reflect the required standard.
