The
Third World Academy of Science (TWAS) |
Purpose |
|
1.
The Third World Academy of Sciences (TWAS) invites applications
for travel grants from scientists in developing countries, normally
with research experience and with positions in universities
and/or research institutions in these countries, who wish to
visit scientific institutions in Third World countries other
than their own for the purpose of undertaking joint research
with other scientists from the South and/or learning new techniques
in scientific research.
2. The aim of the TWAS South-South Fellowship Programme is to
facilitate and promote mutual contacts between research scientists
in the South and to further relations between their scientific
institutions.

1. Travel
grants are supported by the Dipartimento per la Cooperazione allo
Sviluppo of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. No provision
is made for accompanying family members.
2 .Host institutions are normally expected to cover the living
expenses of visiting fellows. If necessary, TWAS has formal agreements
with organizations in several Third World Countries, who have
agreed to consider providing the subsistence costs of visitors.
In particular a number of long-term visits (up to one year) can
be considered in Argentina, Brazil, China, and Mexico. Information
about the scientific institutions in these countries is available
on request.
3. TWAS Fellowships envisage a minimum stay of one month. |
Agreement |
| Selected
candidates should submit a report on the work carried out during
the fellowship period to the host institution and to the Third
World Academy of Sciences. |
Selection |
1.Applications
will be reviewed and evaluated by host institutions and the Third
World Academy of Sciences. Special consideration will be given
to visits which can be expected to promote cooperation among scientists
of the same region and yield substantial benefits to the visitors,
their hosts and their respective scientific communities.
2.Applications will be considered by the Third World Academy of
Sciences throughout the year. Applicants are requested, however,
to give at least three months prior notice of the visits to allow
for the completion of the review and evaluation procedure.a,/pa. |
