The Utopian Studies Society \/ Europe has some limited funds available to assist with the expenses of attending the Society\u2019s annual conference and presenting work. In accordance with a decision taken at the Society\u2019s Annual General Meeting in 2003, the Committee has allocated a sum of money to be disbursed to appropriate applicants, with the following conditions.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The maximum<\/strong> grant available to any one individual will be \u20ac270.<\/li>\n
  2. The grant money will be paid retrospectively,<\/strong> after the Paper has actually been presented at the Conference. [Normally, we arrange to pay the grant in cash during the conference].<\/li>\n
  3. In the event of the available funds being over-subscribed, preference will be given to Postgraduates and those from groups under-represented in the Utopian Studies community (see below). In addition, members of the USS board and the organizing committee will make assessments of the quality of the submitted abstracts.<\/li>\n
  4. Grants will be awarded only once to any individual; previously successful applicants may not re-apply.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. The decision of the Chair, the Secretary, the Treasurer, and the Conference Organiser will be final.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

This includes, but is not limited to: people of colour; Indigenous people; people with disabilities; and people from working class or poor backgrounds. If you feel you suffer disadvantages in the academic world because of your gender, sexual orientation, the fact that you come from a low-income country, or because you are not a native English speaker, you raise child(ren),\u00a0 or any other condition that you find \u00a0relevant, please state how it affects your academic work in a short statement at the bottom of the form (no more than a paragraph)<\/em>.<\/p>\n
