Description
The Annual Meeting Travel Fund Awards, offered by the American Sociological Association (ASA), are designed to broaden access to the ASA Annual Meeting for sociologists who face financial barriers to participation. The program targets adjunct faculty, sociologists at under-resourced institutions, and international scholars who would otherwise struggle to afford travel and registration costs. By offsetting these expenses, the awards aim to foster greater professional engagement and development within the sociological community.
