The Society for Socialist Studies ordinarily receives a limited amount of funds to disperse for purposes of travel to Congress participants who are organizing SSS sessions and/or presenting papers in SSS sessions.
The CFHSS does not make these awards (which are funded by SSHRCC) until April, so we do not know in advance how much funding we will have. We are not in a position to fund the entire cost of travel/accommodation for any of our members. You are encouraged to apply for travel support from other sources. Given the limited funds, we give priority to applications from retired/unwaged, students, new scholars & contract faculty.
Only Society members are eligible for our travel grant awards. You are required to update your membership (which can be done at Congress) in order to qualify to have an award dispersed to you at Congress.
The deadline for travel grant funding applications is March 31, 2012.
