Student Travel Grants

EPC 2026 Student Travel Grants

The Council of EAPS sponsors a limited number of Student Travel Grants to help cover the costs of participation in the European Population Conference. Each grant includes a waiver of the EPC 2026 registration fee and an additional financial contribution, which will be announced at a later date.

The grants are exclusively meant for students who are living/working in a low- or middle-income country, and who have an accepted presentation (paper or poster) on the EPC 2026 program.

Applications should include:

• A short cover letter with a CV, including information on previous conference participation.

• Proof of student status/ your registration as student.

• A supporting letter from your supervisor stating why participation in EPC 2026 is especially important for you.

• A letter from your head of department/administrator stating that the travel grant is vital for your participation in EPC 2026.

Note that World Bank data will be used to determine if your country qualifies as low or middle income (https://datahelpdesk.worldbank...). Low Income Countries (combining the low and lower middle WB categories) and Middle Income Countries (the upper middle WB category). 

Applications should be sent to EPC2026@nidi.nl by 15 February 2026 at the latest and will be judged by the EAPS Council.
