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
participate in APRICOT 2006 in Perth.
The APRICOT Fellowship Program targets personnel from developing countries who are actively involved in Internet development, in any of the following roles:
- Engineers (Network Builders)
- Decision Makers in government, educational, non-government and private
sectors
- Educators and trainers
Successful applicants will be provided with a reasonable (local host standard) allowance for food and accommodation. In addition all fees for participation by fellows in the Conference, Tutorials and Social Events will be waived. The final grant size is determined according to final costs and available funding, and will be advised to successful applicants.
It should be noted that travel expenses are not funded by the Fellowship Program and are the responsibility of the successful fellow.
The APRICOT 2006 Fellowship Committee will select the fellows according to following criteria.
A. Membership of the Target Audience listed above
B. Residency in a developing country
C. Demonstrated ability to utilize the experiences gained from APRICOT
D. Willingness to return to APRICOT as a presenter or trainer in future
Applicants from any part of the world will be considered, however it is expected that the majority of fellows selected will be from the Asia-Pacific region.
The Fellowship Section Committee is Chaired by Suresh Ramasubramanian and Co-chaired by Tom Vest.
