Description
The Frances M. Culbertson Travel Grant, administered by the American Psychological Foundation (APF), supports women from developing countries who are in the earliest stages of their psychology careers. It addresses the limited resources that can make it difficult for early-career psychologists to keep up with the latest information in their field.
The grant provides travel funds for attendance at international and regional psychology conferences, expanding access to professional gatherings and the information they offer. Preference is given to attendance at four named international conference programs. Participation in the conference program is not required, so applicants do not need to be presenters to receive support.
