IRC Funding / Travel Grants

The International Relations Committee (IRC) considers applications from members who are seeking funding for projects usually, but not exclusively, in the developing world. Please click on 'Further Information' to access our new application form for all projects, including travel grants which were previously submitted on a separate form.

Further Information

There is no closing date; applications are assessed every few months. Please contact Chloë Hoy at the AAGBI on 020 7631 8807 for further details.

Please note that grants will not be considered for the purpose of taking up a post abroad, nor for attendance at congresses or meetings of learned societies. Exceptionally they may be granted for extension of travel in association with such a post or meeting. Applicants should indicate the expected benefits to be gained from their visits, over and above the educational value to the applicants themselves.
