Description
The Association of Field Ornithologists (AFO) provides travel awards each year to help researchers attend its annual meetings and share their research through oral papers or posters. The awards support meeting participation rather than financing the research itself. AFO is an international society devoted to the field study of birds, with an emphasis on collaboration between professional and avocational ornithologists and on ornithology in the Neotropics.
The program supports students and early-career professionals. Past recipients have presented at AFO conferences, joint meetings with other ornithological societies, and larger ornithological congresses, including the Ornithological Congress of the Americas and North American Ornithological Conference meetings.
