The Annual Meeting Travel Fund Awards, offered by the American Sociological Association (ASA), are designed to broaden access to the professional development and networking opportunities of the ASA Annual Meeting. These awards specifically support sociologists in adjunct or contingent positions, those working at under-resourced institutions, and international scholars who might otherwise face financial barriers to participation. Through this initiative, ASA aims to increase inclusion and engagement within the sociological community by enabling a more diverse group of professionals to attend and benefit from the Annual Meeting experience.
