Conference scholarships will be allocated according to the following criteria:

• individuals/small organisations working in regional, rural or remote locations;
• practitioners supporting disadvantaged or at risk children;
• individuals or services that are experiencing financial hardship

Successful applicants must be prepared to attend the full 3 days of the conference, be available to meet your sponsor and have photos taken (either in-person of via Zoom) for later inclusion in media and promotion by both ECA and the sponsor, and provide feedback on the conference and the value of scholarships following the conference. Successful applicants’ details will be shared with their sponsors for feedback and interviews (name, organisation, and basic contact details only).

Applicants are advised that, if successful, you will be responsible for covering the costs of your conference ticket and any associated travel expenses upfront. Please note that scholarship funds will be paid by direct deposit only after the Conference has concluded.
