The CAUTHE Executive is pleased to invite applications for the Carer support scheme to assist CAUTHE members to attend the CAUTHE 2022 Hybrid Conference to be hosted by Griffith University, Brisbane from 7-9 February. The scheme is open to all CAUTHE Associate and Student members.

The aim of the scheme is to provide assistance to those who would like to attend the conference but have carer responsibilities or needs that result in an additional financial burden. The funding scheme will provide individual grants of up to a maximum of AU$500 each.

To be eligible for the scheme, applicants should:

• Be an individual Student or Associate CAUTHE member, with membership expiry no earlier than 10 February 2022.
• Have a paper accepted by the conference reviewers as a full or working paper (you may register as an in-person delegate or an online delegate).
• Provide a brief statement outlining your need for funding.
• Be prepared to submit a brief report (to be kept confidential for Executive committee use only) within one month following the conference outlining how the grant facilitated your attendance, if your application is successful.
