Fund Available for Biocultural Event/Exchange or Meeting

IIE is pleased to announce the second round of the Indigenous Biocultural Exchange Fund (IBEX Fund), a project administered by the Institute of International Education and supported by The Christensen Fund. This initiative makes financial support available to indigenous peoples and members of the local traditional communities to attend a global biocultural event/exchange or meeting of international significance which impacts the applicant’s home territory or region. The IBEX Fund will help to defray costs, which include international airfare, hotel/lodging, conference fees, meals, incidentals, local transportation, visa fees, and travel insurance.
