[Kristine Hildebrandt]

The ALT 12 organising committee
<http://www.dynamicsoflanguage.edu.au/alt-conference-2017/>, in tandem with
the Association for Linguistic <http://www.linguistic-typology.org/>
Typology, will be offering a limited number of scholarships to researchers
for the ALT 2017 conference, to be held in Canberra Australia, 11-15 2017.
We can cover conference registration and dinner, low-cost accommodation and
travel to the degree possible. We ask that applicants submit one page
detailing the title of their submitted abstract, their interest in
typology, their financial situation and the name and contact details of one
referee through the link below. We also ask applicants to have the referee
upload a letter of support to the link for references below. The letter
should describe the applicant, their research trajectory and their
financial situation.

Some scholarship support will be reserved for researchers of low-income
countries. These scholarships will be based on the need for funding as
demonstrated by the applicant and verified in a letter of reference.
Primarily factors to be considered include (i) the income level of the
country where the applicant is based and (ii) the income level of the
applicant’s home country. 'Our list of eligible countries is based on
http://www.oxfordjournals.org/en/librarians/developing-countries-initiative/participating-countries.html
