Financial support - PhD students from a CUSO institution will be partially covered by the CUSO. More precisely, the CUSO will reimburse your travel costs (2nd class), as well as reimburse a large part of the Package 4 costs. Definitive amounts will depend on the number of CUSO PhD students participants, but will presumably be between CHF 500 and CHF 630 (the maximum possible amount). CUSO PhD students must register the same way as other participants, i.e. you have to pay for your package, and the CUSO will reimburse its coverage after the event.

Students, individuals from under-represented minorities, and individuals with limited financial means are encouraged to apply for financial support. As our financial support capacity is limited, only applications sent to geocow2020@gmail.com before November 30, 2019 can be guaranteed full consideration.

Your application must include your affiliation, a short document describing why you apply for financial support and the financial supports you have already been awarded, as well as an explanation of your interest for the event.

Participants being awarded a financial support will be requested to present a poster at the poster session.
