The IAHPC Traveling Scholarship Program was started in 1999 and is designed to provide support to palliative care workers from developing countries who wish to attend a meeting, conference, seminar, internship or any other educational activity.

IAHPC has supported Traveling Scholars from many developing countries in Africa, Asia, South Pacific, South East Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe. To read the names of the grantees of this program, click here. Through the Traveling Scholarship Program, IAHPC is making a significant difference to the progress of palliative care in the developing world. The organization gratefully acknowledges the generous financial support of our sponsors and donors who make this program possible.

This is an ongoing program and applications are accepted throughout the year. However, for certain events, IAHPC may set deadlines in order to be able to  review and complete the process before the event starts.

In order to apply for a TS grant, the following criteria must be met:

  • Applications should be submitted at least 3 months in advance of the expected dates of travel. Applications received with less time, will also be reviewed but there is no guarantee that the applicant may receive an answer before his/her travel date.
  • Applications are open only to IAHPC members. Individuals who wish to join may do so, through our website by clicking here.
  • The program is designed to support not only medical doctors. Applicants from other disciplines working in palliative care are welcomed.
  • Preference will be given to applications which describe long term goals and lead to improvements in any or all the following areas: patient practice, service development, education, opioid availability and policy.
  • Preference will be given to candidates who meet the following criteria:
    • Are at least 50% dedicated to palliative care in their current work
    • Individuals who have not received grants from IAHPC in the past 3 yrs
    • Junior candidates will be favored over senior candidates (less than 40 years of age or less than 10 years since the date of graduation from specialty or medical school)
    • Accepted abstract for poster / oral presentation
