Helsinki – 2nd – 5th June 2020
The ‘International Congresses on Underwater Archaeology’ have become an important part of the programme to exchange information and experience in this important and still growing branch of archaeology. The proceedings of the first five conferences (in Germany, Zurich, London, Croatia and Spain) have been published; and that of the sixth, held in Western Australia, is under way.
The Foundation is offering the opportunity for postgraduate students from the eastern Mediterranean region* to apply for support in the form of bursaries to attend the conference. The amount of the bursary is a lump sum to cover the costs of transportation, accommodation, registration and visas (if required).
The Foundation is offering up to five bursaries for postgraduate students and early career researchers to attend the conference.
