Dear Gamesnetwork!



I’m happy to announce the second edition of the DiGRA Solidarity Fund! The
fund is meant for providing scholars from less privileged countries with
means to travel to the DiGRA international conference which will be held in
Sevilla 19-23 June 2023.  Last year we provided travel funding for 5
scholars to attend the conference in Krakow. With a slightly increased
budged we are aiming at providing travel funding for the same, or higher
number of scholars this year.



The application period for the DiGRA International conference 2023 in
Seville is from March 29th to April 12th, 2023. You can apply by filling
out the form (here)
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PfkeR5gOtmypdlr8vF74UQQW_1ucTAfV6478tWilFq0/edit?usp=sharing>
and sending it, with a short CV (max 2 pages) and a recommendation letter
(that confirms your situation regarding limited conference travel funding)
to Miia Siutila (mimasi[at]utu.fi). The Solidarity Fund Committee aims to
make the decisions regarding the award of funds by April 19th. All
applicants will be personally informed on the decision.



Funds will be paid to each recipient as a stipend, according to their
estimate of costs of travel and stay at the conference for its full
duration (e.g., flights, hotel). The recipients will need to present
receipts of the expenses to DiGRA Treasurer Jussi Holopainen, and they are
expected to participate in the entire conference (not just a day or two).



If you have any questions, please email DiGRA secretary Miia Siutila
(mimasi[at]utu.fi) or refer to the FAQ document
