Call for Fellowship

The APRICOT conference, convened annually since 1996, has been a unique
and successful educational forum for Internet builders in the
Asia-Pacific region, to learn from their peers and from leaders in the
Internet community. Senior practitioners from the Asia Pacific and
around the world contribute their time to APRICOT as presenters,
teachers and trainers, to produce a non-commercial conference of
consistently high-quality.

Since 2000, APRICOT has incorporated a Fellowship Program to provide
opportunities to developing country personnel to participate in APRICOT.
This program provides basic assistance to successful fellows to cover
local living and registration expenses associated with attending the
conference.

The APRICOT 2007 Fellowship Committee now cordially invite suitable
applicants to apply for fellowship funding to participate in APRICOT
2007, Bali, Indonesia

Fellows must be actively involved in network operations / networking
education and should demonstrate willingness to use their learning
gained at apricot to good effect in their home countries, and in
subsequent apricot events.

Successful applicants will be provided with a reasonable (local host
standard) allowance for food and accommodation. In addition all fees for
participation by fellows in the Conference, Tutorials and Social Events
will be waived. The final grant size is determined according to final
costs and available funding, and will be advised to successful applicants.

Note: It should be noted that travel expenses are not funded by the
Fellowship Program and are the responsibility of the successful fellow.

Please also note that fellowship is granted only once. People who have
already received a fellowship from APRICOT or other regional conference
such as SANOG / APNIC will not normally be considered for a fellowship
except in exceptional circumstances.

Please see https://submission.apricot.net/fellowship/ for the
application form.
