Bursaries are available to delegates resident in LMIC countries (as determined by the World Bank list) and to LMIC nationals studying as students abroad.   

We encourage bursary applicants to submit an abstract, but you can apply for a bursary whether you will be attending the conference as a delegate or as an oral or poster presenter.

Delegates whose abstracts are accepted for an oral or poster presentation will be prioritised for a bursary.

There will be two levels of one-off bursaries available: up to £950 for delegates from ASEAN countries and up to £2000 for delegates from other countries.

Bursary funds should be used towards the costs of travel to Singapore, accommodation and, where necessary, applying for a visa.

If you are awarded a bursary, your conference registration fee will be waived. 

To apply for a bursary, please complete this form. The deadline for applications was 23:59 GMT on Tuesday 3 March 2026. Outcomes will be communicated via email at the start of April.

Bursary applicants should wait until they hear about the outcome of their application before registering.
