Fellowship Program Overview
The APRICOT conference, convened annually since 1996,
has been a unique and successful educational forum for Internet builders in
the Asia-Pacific region, to learn from their peers and from leaders in the Internet
community. Senior practitioners from the Asia Pacific and around the world contribute
their time to APRICOT as presenters, teachers and trainers, to produce a non-commercial
conference of consistently high-quality.
Since 2000, APRICOT has incorporated a Fellowship Program to provide opportunities
to developing country personnel to participate in APRICOT. This program provides
basic assistance to successful fellows to cover local living and registration
expenses associated with attending the conference.
WAIA, the local organizer of APRICOT 2006, and the APRICOT 2006 Fellowship Committee
now cordially invite suitable applicants to apply for fellowship funding to

Award Package

(local host standard) allowance for food and accommodation. In addition all
fees for participation by fellows in the Conference, Tutorials and Social Events

It should be noted that travel expenses are not funded

fellow.
