Hi ECOLOG listers, I’m excited to share with you that I have been selected as one of 78 international female scientists to take part in the second edition of Homeward Bound (http://homewardboundprojects.com.au/), a 10-year global collaboration of women working together to communicate climate science and gender equity on the world stage. I'm the only representative of Venezuela and the Caribbean in the program.
The Program covers 60% of the cost of my participation, and I need to raise the remaining funds (US$ 16,000). Raising funds from within Venezuela is a real challenge for me, since the currency exchange control established in 2003 by the government seriously limits Venezuelans to obtain any kind of foreign currency. I'm writing to the list in order to ask information about grants or scholarships I could apply to get funds for my participation in this initiative. Also, I will really appreciate if people could share my crowdfunding campaign in their social media. https://www.chuffed.org/ project/adrianahumanes). Thanks in advance!
