Dear Researchers,

I write from the Academy of the Social Sciences to advise researchers in the social sciences from your university that the Academy is now calling for applications for its International Grants Schemes.

Applications are now being accepted for travel in 2010 to France, the United Kingdom, China and the Netherlands.  Grants of up to AU$6,000 for international travel and accommodation costs are available in the Exchange and Joint-action Project schemes.

All applications-including supporting documentation where required-are due by no later than C.O.B Wednesday 7th October 2009.

Please see the attached flyer for details, or go to the International Programs section of the Academy website: www.assa.edu.au <http://www.assa.edu.au/> 

I would be most appreciative if these details could be forwarded to research administrators in the social sciences and other relevant individuals in your university.

Researchers should not hesitate to contact me should they have any queries regarding the schemes or applications.  My thanks for your assistance in this matter.
