Wall Colloquia Abroad

The Wall Colloquia Abroad is a unique event directed at enhancing relations with our international partners, increasing the international reputation of the Institute, and expanding opportunities for international research collaborations for Faculty Associates of the Institute. Like the Wall Exploratory Workshop Grants held at the Institute, Colloquia Abroad are small meetings to which scholars from a range of disciplines, from UBC and abroad, are brought together for a few days to develop and further research agendas on cutting edge topics. Holding the meetings in other parts of the world will enable key researchers to attend who might otherwise not be able to do so. 

Funding of up to $20,000 is provided for a Colloquia Abroad, plus up to an additional $5,000 to assist UBC researchers to attend.  A Wall Institute Faculty Associate will be awarded the funding as Principal Investigator.


Deadline
There is no fixed deadline for this program. Faculty Associates of the Institute should bring their ideas for Colloquia Abroad to the attention of the Director.
