The EurAI Travel Award scheme provides funding for students and early career researchers wishing to attend the ECAI conference or ESSAI/ACAI summer school. These awards are intended to partially cover travel expenses and registration fees. The value of the award ranges from 250 EUR to 750 EUR, depending on the location of the conference / summer school and the distance to be travelled.
