Description
The International Association of Sound and Audiovisual Archives (IASA) offers Travel Awards to encourage members to attend its annual conference by helping meet the cost of travel. The program supports conference attendance rather than a separate research or project activity. The conference brings together professionals, researchers, students, and practitioners working across audiovisual heritage to share knowledge and experiences, build collaborations, and discuss archiving, preservation, and access.
Support is based on the cheapest air or train fare between the applicant’s home and the conference venue, with the level of assistance taking account of IASA’s financial health. Members from developing countries, paper presenters, and first-time applicants receive priority. The Secretary-General administers applications, and the Executive Board discusses and approves awards.
